So here is the story. PayPal decided to be a cunt and limit my account for no reason with $319. Luckily, the day before, I sent myself $380 something to another account and then sent it back because I realized I needed it in that account.. But since then, I've spent some money and now I'm down to $319.. The only way I can get it back is by someone sending me around $67 so my account has that $380 something and then I can refund it to my other account and problem solved. Of course, once I get my money into my paypal, I will send you back your $67. Anyone who helps me out, I'll buy them a usertag thingy under their username, or I'll just gift them $10 via PayPal.

The $384 was the money I sent from that account into the one that's shown. The reason I don't have the exact amount anymore is because I spent the $66 on a pair of shoes.
Is my penis huge enough?
Yes sir :smith:
And just so I'm getting this right, if someone gives you $67, you will give them something they can buy almost 7 times over?
They give me the $67 so I can refund all my money back into my paypal, then I will refund them their $67 plus another $10 on top.
No one will ever trust you, find a friend willing to do it or it's not happening.
I don't mean to be so blunt, but it's the truth.
We could use a middleman? A mod/admin? I don't care. I just want my $300.

And btw even if there wasn't a middleman, the person could easily just claim a dispute against me and they'd get their money back, it isn't hard. I'm just pissed at paypal, I had plans to buy COD Black Ops tonight, now I can't because the SOB's limited it.
Your story is sketchy as fuck.
People, for the record. This is the MOST common type of scam. "I have X money but i need Y amount to get it out. Can you help me?"

If its real, contact PayPal not strangers.
I don't know. I can't really trust anyone on the internet.

If I was trying to scam anyone why would I say we could use a middleman? Don't believe me? I'll show you my limited PayPal account.

Contact PayPal.
Fuck that, you how long that will take? They want me to activate my bank on my account, I don't even have a bank account. Paypal are a bunch of douches, they rob people like this all the time. Sorry for swearing, but I'm pretty upset about this.
Ask family/real friends.
No family/friends use PayPal. I think my sister is the only family member I can think of who knows what it is, but that's because I use it. I even posted my problem in a status on facebook and no luck. Facepunch is my last resort because I KNOW people use PayPal on here.
Man, last time I trusted people on the internet was here on Facepunch last Christmas. Lost pretty much around $100. Probably a bit more than that.
But Paypal are douches.
Contact PayPal, people are not going to trust you, at all.
Yeah, I know. It's hard to trust people on the internet because some people are just up to no good. It sucks because I was looking forward to purchasing COD tonight and playing Zombies online with my buddy because I just got a new Xbox 360 a few days ago.. and then PayPal goes and fucks me over like this and it would take forever. This way would take only like 5 minute tops and then everyone is happy.

Seiteki, would you consider being a middleman? Maybe then people will do it? I really really need this done, and I'd appreciate it.
No, I'm not going to be some sort of middleman.

Earn $67 and do it yourself.
You don't need to be a dick about it. A simple "No" would have worked.
I'm not being a dick. People just won't trust you and it's easier to just earn the money you need, or check with someone you know in real life and ask them.
I know people have a hard time trusting others on the internet. And I know some people are nice enough to do people favors just like this. Some people get fucked over/scammed some people get rewarded for being a nice person and helping someone out. So if there is anyone willing to help me, I'd appreciate the help a lot. Btw, I'm not like that kid who scammed a bunch of you during the Christmas holiday. Although, that was pretty funny, especially when he admitted to it afterwards.

If you don't like them so much, then why do you use them?
If you want your money, then the company that has it is who you should be talking to.
People here are never going to give you money. Ever.
If I had money I would give it to you, but I have none cus Im a lazy teen
Have this instead

Because almost everyone uses PayPal for online shopping and it's the easiest online payment method. And yeah well duh, but I could easily just do it this way and have it done in 5 minutes rather than 5 weeks. It's not giving, it's lending for 2 minutes and then they make $10.

Thanks anyways man.
Let me just paraphrase this whole thread for those of you just joining in
[QUOTE=My paraphrasing of iJeax]So here is the story. iJeax is an Canadian of some importance. He has amassed great wealth which is now in jeopardy. He is in need of persons with whom his family has no relationship. He seeks your cooperation and assistance in the transfer of 8,000,000.00 to your private bank account in Nigeria. To show his appreciation he will offer you 15% of the total sum including 20% of interest earned. Please treat this issue confidentially. Please send him your bank account number as well as a color photocopy of a Nigerian passport so he is certain you are a real resident. He waits to hear from you.
