But here's the question:

Can you charge back "gift" payments?

I always thought you couldn't charge those back, which is why they have no fees.

But is it possible they can be charged back, if we all (accurately) claim that Johnny scammed us?
When I go to reverse my transaction it definitely says I can't due to it being a gift.
Maybe someone can try an experiment of calling them and saying this was a scam where a guy ran a fake charity event and asked people to send him money on Paypal as a "gift" to donate.

They have it on file that he's a big scammer, so they'll believe it. I wonder if there is a protocol for dealing with things like that.
