Having payments cancelled

I'm sure this topic has been posted before but I'd like to get 100% clarification if possible. I am selling an item via steam market place, I've had a few people offer to pay via paypal to get rid of the 15% additional steam charge. If they sent me the money and I accept the payment into my account is their anyway they can cancel the payment other than by disputing it? Many thanks

They cannot cancel the payment unless the payment status on their end shows "unclaimed".   However, it's really quite easy for them to open a dispute against you.  Note, if you're dealing with "intangible items" (digital goods, services, etc.) and they claim it was an unauthorized transaction, their account was hacked, etc., based on history, there's a good chance PayPal will return their funds.
