How to Have PayPal Collect Additional Information
1. Log into your Paypal account. Paypal lists basic details about all transactions made on your account, including payments sent and payments received. You also have the option of disputing any charges made to your account.
2. Find the transaction you're interested in learning more about. Transactions are arranged in chronological order, based on the most recent charges to your account. Paypal also gives you the option of looking only at payments you sent or payments you received.
3. Select the 'Details' button next to the transaction. This takes you to a new page with the details of the transaction listed. The name of the seller, the seller's location, the date of the transaction and the order number are all listed. If you're the seller, it shows you the shipping address of the buyer.
4. Visit the 'Frequently Asked Questions' section of the website and look for the 'Contact Us' section. Paypal collects additional information on a case-by-case basis and usually only when the buyer or seller files a dispute, such as a buyer who claims a seller never sent their item.
5. Contact Paypal directly about any questions or concerns that you might have. Include the transaction number, the email address of the buyer or seller and as much information as possible. If Paypal determines that more information is needed, the website will collect that information and let you know once it's done.

PayPal issues two small deposits to your account that arrive in three to five business days. You must confirm these two amounts to verify account ownership.
3. Deposit funds into your PayPal account. Do this by clicking the 'deposit money' tab. Funds become available as soon as the withdrawal clears your bank account.
4. Send money to your recipient. Click the 'Send money' tab. You need to enter your recipient's PayPal email address, which is the address they provided during sign up. The money arrives in your recipient's account instantly. She is now able to withdraw the funds to her bank account. Alternatively, she may wish to spend the funds online at any merchant that accepts PayPal.

3. Log back into your eBay account as in the previous steps and go ahead with the dispute if you have not heard from the seller or you are not satisfied with her answer. You should have received tracking information, refund offers or the like.
4. Click the item number once in eBay and then 'report an item not received' in the drop-down box under actions on the right-hand side of your screen. You will be taken to a different screen, where you should click the blue 'proceed with dispute' box.

How to Find a Buyer#039;s Shipping Address on eBay
1. Check the eBay order or transaction details once the buyer has purchased your item through a 'Buy-It-Now' transaction or has won your item through an auction. The buyer's shipping address should automatically be listed within the transaction details.
2. Look at the shipping address provided with the Paypal payment transaction details or, if the buyer is paying with a money order, ask him to send a correct shipping address along with the payment. Paypal is part of the eBay company, so an eBay buyer who pays for items with Paypal must have an address in the Paypal account details.
3. Verify the shipping address with the buyer before sending out his eBay item. Contact the buyer through e-mail or eBay's 'Send a Message' feature. Request that the buyer confirm the shipping address originally provided to you in the transaction details.
How to Spot Fake Escrow Service Scams on eBay
1. Receive a fake email from a reputable third-party transaction site such as Squaretrade or Paypal. The scammer will have sent the email from his account or from a fake address associated with the fake escrow service. The scammer will say that they prefer this service over others due suspicion of other services.
2. Pay close attention if you click on the Web site link provided in the email. The link will either lead to a fraudulent Web site designed to look like a popular and legitimate service or a fake service with an unheard of name set up by the scammer--the URL often is simply a bunch of letters and numbers. To try and convince you to use their preferred service, the scammer may say that they are willing to pay for the transaction fees.
3. Refuse to enter your personal and financial information on the site. Only use services of which you are already a member and only log in to that site from the service's main Web page.
4. Realize that the scammer will happily receive your item and the fake escrow service won't send you payment for it. If you try to contact the scammer or the escrow service, you'll find the contact information is no longer valid.
