As for those people that are ridiculing my dad, I don't appreciate that in the least. He's very intelligent.
I'm going to fight not to reimburse PayPal for their mistake. Its hard to believe no one sees my side. Yes human error happens however this was beyond what a normal error should consist of. I'm done with the advice from you people...when you're a poor college student maybe you'd understand my angle a bit more.

Sorry hon, but your dad's advice
was bad and you
are culpable. Nobody has done anything here other than point these facts out and suggest that perhaps if you're properly contrite maybe the folks at Paypal will be gracious enough to work with you on fixing your error. Frankly, I think the folks here have been pretty nice about it.
I am not a nice guy.
I don't understand how this is the slightest bit difficult to grasp. You spent money that you knew wasn't yours and now you think it's unreasonable that the people whose money it was want it back? You're right to think that four months is a long time between error and correction; you should've contacted them within the same week as the error was made.
You're right. The
adult response is to not spend money that isn't yours. The
adult response is also not to get upset when people point out your mistake. As you're over 18 and ostensibly an
adult now, presumably this shouldn't be difficult to grasp.
That's my take. I'd offer advice on how to proceed, but as you've indicated that you're not going to listen to it anyway I'll just say best of luck and continue on my merry way.
