Issue: Fraud or scam — 
Company: Paypal Holdings, Inc
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
On XX/XX/XXXX, my brother in law mistakenly filed a fraud claim against a Venmo transaction. After a lot of back and forth Venmo determined I had no choice but to wait until the claim was resolved by my brother in law 's bank which is XXXX XXXX  XXXX. My brother in law WITHDREW the claim. On XX/XX/XXXX XXXX  XXXX XXXX sent a notice to my brother in law that the claim had in fact been withdrawn and then they took the money out of his account. This should have cleared up the negative balance on my Venmo account as per the bank, Venmo has received the funds back. Shortly thereafter on XX/XX/XXXX I received a notice from Venmo that this claim had been resolved in my brother in law 's favor, which is not at all accurate. Venmo is XXXX  dipping and holding on to other funds of mine all while getting the money back from XXXX  XXXX XXXX. I am attaching the complete XXXX XXXX showing that XXXX  XXXX XXXX shows the claim as XXXX, has reversed the temporary credit and that Venmo is still holding on to my funds. My brother in law has provided me access to all notices in regards to this and I have attached them here. As XXXX  XXXX XXXX has already taken the money and I keep getting nowhere with Venmo, my brother in law and I have called XXXX  XXXX XXXX again XXXX  on XX/XX/XXXX and XXXX  XXXX XXXX said the following " XXXX has stated that they have sent the funds to the banking service that Venmo uses. They noted that it can take XXXX days to go from the bank to the vendor, and are advising to have us or Venmo reach out to their bank to inform them the case is closed. '' I submitted a prior complaint to the CFPB and Venmo called me and said I could continue to wait and see if the money showed up in my account, but the money has not showed up in my account. Venmo continues to simply close CFPB complaints without any resolution and now it has gotten to the level of stealing as they have money they are not returning. I have a full XXXX XXXX showing Venmo HAS received the funds. 

It has now been over XXXX  days since the funds were returned to Venmo. After calling the bank again, they state the have confirmation Venmo has received the funds. Venmo is committing fraud and someone in the company needs to investigate this further. There can not be money they just hold on to because no one is willing to do the legwork.
