Someone I know from groups and is a friend on Facebook is part of several MLM.
She recently joined a similar scheme for a high street shop. I love the products from there so decided to order a few bits. I’ve had things from her before and always paid via paypal with no problems.
She didn’t tell me which paypal to pay to, so I just paid to the one I’ve always used. I spent nearly £40.
Got a message this morning saying that she hadn’t received the money and couldn’t put the order through until she had.
I sent her a photo of my paypal account with the money having been sent. She says I must have sent it to the wrong account and need to pay again in order to get my goods.
I can’t afford to pay again or lose that money, and think it’s her fault for not checking I had the correct payment information. She’s saying I can’t have a refund or goods until I send the money to the correct account.
AIBU to think she’s trying to scam me out of an extra £40? And can I complain to the company she works for? If so how? Through the HQ for the high street store or will it be someone different?
