PayPal, an eBay Company

The clowns said that because the guy, GET THIS, reported someone stole his credit card, then hacked in to his ebay account to bid on my items, then hacked in to his paypal account to pay for them, then left an address where the books could be sent, that I am out my books and the $170 because I shipped to a frigging unconfirmed address. It was the address Paypal gave me! Better yet, I tried to close my PayPal account and can't because there is a negative balance of $100 in it (I had a positive $70 before this happened). So I guess PayPal can shove it and that $100 negative balance will be there until hell freezes over. They keep asking me to authorize a transfer of $100 from my credit card to make it zero so I can pay for stuff. They can stick it where the sun doesn't shine. If they take the money from my bank account I will sue the bastards from here to Sunday.
Me pissed? You bet. Does anyone still have the name and address of the law firm handling the class action law suit against PayPal, I have some info for them. As for the buyer Robert Worth, he better have had his credit card stolen because I am contacting the U.S. Attorney's office.
