Why does Paypal not instigate an investigation with the Credit card company when something like this happens? Especially with an amount that big.
If it was a straight transacation with a merchant account the credit card company contacts the merchant and an investigation ensues as to whether it was a legitimate charge.
Seems like if there is any question with a Paypal transaction, Paypal rolls over and says to the CC company, "No worries, we'll just take the money back from our guy", and moves on without really caring whether somebody just got ripped off or not.
