Hello everyone.

 

I am new to paypal. I am looking to rent an apartment in Paris for a week and got in touch with the owner through a Travel forum. The owner of the apartment is asking for a deposit though his account in Paypal. So will i be protected against any kind of fraud when i make this payment through Paypal?

 

Thanks in advance.

Sorry but no. From buyer protection.

 

However, there are some payments that we do not cover including payments for services, real estate, businesses, vehicles , custom made items, airline flight tickets, eBay classified advertisements, licenses and most intangible items. In addition, items prohibited in the PayPal Acceptable Use Policy are ineligible for coverage.
