Yep... I've had trouble with PayPal on Ebay auctions before Ebay owned them. I paid a seller via PayPal with my cc, but apparently the seller couldn't receive a cc payment, only money from my checking. I had to pay them again from checking, then I had to wait 30 - THIRTY! - days for PayPal to credit my card back. It was more an inconvenience than anything since it wasn't a large amount, but it reeks of a scam. If you do that kind of thing to enough people, you have lots of funds to play with and earn interest on before giving it back to its rightful owner.
