How do I chargeback this? (Paypal)

So I'm seeking the help of all the social engineering experts here.
I've never performed a chargeback on my paypal account ever but I'm planning to do so.

Basically I bought a code for a game from an individual seller and I'd like to chargeback the transaction.

Is there any special reason that I can use that guarantees that the chargeback is successful since I've never chargebacked before and have a clean record? Like "it wasn't me it was my son bla bla bla" etc?

Or link me to some people who perform chargeback services? Thanks!

Was it send as F&F or goods & services.

But the code didn't work :/
I mean it did but it was not the one I wanted, it was for something else.

Do your research on what you purchase next time.

Has it ever occurred to you that he KNOWINGLY gave me the wrong code? And then stopped replying shortly after. I'm just looking for a simple reason that will guarantee a chargeback.

You know the statement "Do your research on what you purchase next time." Can mean checking for vouch copies on the seller, etc..

And in post 1 you said "Basically I bought a code for a game", Had it ever occurred to you that said post mite sound like you're implying you brought a CD code for a game. And, If you bought code for a game, It would make more sense to say it like this "I bought code for a game"(Remove the a).

Some other forum site, but what reason should I give that is bound to work? Unauthorized transaction?

Hmm, you was it a steam code? If so, redeem the game on some account, and then on your main, enter that same code, and when you press redeem, it should say it is invalid. Take a ss of that and put it in the dispute. Works on most other things too, but works on g2a mainly and they don't respond to disputes, but your selling might respond so...

Nope it was for a Blizzard game (Overwatch). Basically I wanted one skin but got another. I'm pretty sure reselling blizzard codes is against their rules somewhere, so if I dispute it as an unauthorized transaction would it work?

Didn't know people sold skins! Where do I buy (from a non scammer of course xdlmao).

Not working for Goods and Services is enough for paypal

Just call them and explain how your son used your paypal account.

yeah unauthorized transaction should work fine, good luck man
