They first hired me via email as an XXXX, XXXX XXXX XXXX, stating they are a XXXX company ( XXXX ) who does selling items, antiques online and since their employees are having hard time to communicate in English. They required me first to open a PayPal account in order for them to send my salary. I accepted their offer and after a week they told me that XXXX XXXX wo n't be available anymore but they are giving me a new job as a XXXX. My job is to XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX here in the U.S., they said they have a receiving limit of funds to PayPal of only {$300.00}. in their country, so i thought everything 's going to be alright so I accepted their offer. The first and only transaction with XXXX company started XXXX XXXX, XXXX when they said that they delivered or shipped an item to their client named XXXX XXXX PayPal sent me the invoice of the shipped item and it 's described a XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX with a price of {$9700.00}. less {$20.00}. shipping and PayPal fee of {$280.00}. XXXX also sent me details of their delivery and provided me the XXXX tracking to be given to PayPal in order for them to be able to verify and confirm the delivery of the product. XXXX XXXX, XXXX, per XXXX tracking, the item is delivered but because of PayPal regulations that they need to make sure its received by the buyer they hold the funds for one week. I was confident that when they cleared the funds to me, they already thoroughly investigated the delivery. XXXX XXXX, XXXX, PayPal cleared the funds and with the instructions of XXXX XXXX to withdraw the funds from my account and send to XXXX XXXX at XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX XXXX NY XXXX via XXXX XXXX Net amount reflected to my PayPal account was {$9400.00}. This said amount, {$9400.00}, XXXX paid me 5 % of the net amount and {$160.00}. for one week editing job and {$100.00}. for the next day delivery cost of XXXX to XXXX XXXX. They were supposed to pay me a one month salary of XXXX but I was made to believe that it will be given on the one month that I work with their company as XXXX, which was XXXX XXXX, XXXX but did not happen because they 're already busted on XXXX XXXX, XXXX, of course did not hear from them. The total amount sent to XXXX XXXX was {$8700.00}. However, XXXX XXXX, XXXX, i got an email from PayPal stating about the buyer '' s dispute.
