What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? Ohio
A user on my website bought Items with a supposed stolen credit card that he took from I am assuming his mother. The bank issued a charge back through PayPal months after the purchase leaving me to pay this all back. Not only am I pretty much being forced to pay back the 430 dollars he stole but I may also need to pay 420 more for charge back fee's. Should I, an innocent person be held liable for a child who stole his mothers account. And can I request that the child have charges pressed on him for theft before the money is returned.
I sent this to PayPal.. Am I correct on this?
I would also like to note if the information was genuinely stolen, I am assuming by the card holders son/daughter. That the thief be held accountable for their own actions and should be made to pay this back, and/or have legal action brought up against them properly in a court of law.
They need to take responsibility for theft because I am sure that is illegal and anyone else would be held accountable and made to not only pay this back but may also face jail time and/or probation.
I deem that it is only fair. I should not be the innocent one paying for the guilty ones crime.

The bank and PayPal are still working on the case and no ruling has been made yet, Needing advice
