in the way of useful advice that's going to get you help or money back. If you have the product and the outfit is out of business, you have little recourse. PayPal is just a go between. Once they have paid the vendor, the money is gone. If this was like VISA/MC, and you can legitimately dispute charges or show that the vendor has failed to deliver a product as promised, credit card companies (as a service to their customers) have some leverage to help reconcile the matter. I don't know this about PayPal. I do not use them. If you know the state home of the outfit in question, you can file a complaint with their attorney general. You can also file with your own as their are legal requirements when doing business in any state. I am thinking these are more often exercises in futility, unfortunately. Hopefully the amount of loss was small. I am thinking, however, that a ruthless operation that now has your PayPal information could abuse it. You might try telling PayPal you want that account closed so no further activity will suddenly appear. This might get their interest as they don't want to lose customers. You could also close and reopen with a different acct. # just to be safe. Good luck.
Does anyone know the PC Rescue program from "healthycomputerclub"? Couple of weeks ago I had downloaded and purchased that program because it seemed to be interesting and helpful. Payment was made via PayPal.
After the first trial run I had a view questions and so I wrote on Jan.09 to the Help address provided by them: help@healthycomputerclub.com but it came back as undeliverable. Next thing I tried, was help via their homepage http://www.healthycomputerclub.com%20/software/pcrescue/pcrescuehelp.html
however, the reply was: The page cannot be found.
What does this mean? Have I fallen pray to a fake offer? Not even PayPal is showing any interest in my complaint. In my request for info I asked on why one can close a PayPal deal with such a seemingly non existent company.
Any assistance and/or info will be highly appreciated.
