That’s awful, so sorry this happened to you.When I goto his conversation it says " ********* may not be contacted at this time."his fiverr name is ********** 😦It sounds like the buyer did a chargeback via PayPal. When chargebacks happen Fiverr bans the person’s account. Contact Customer Support! Express everything you’ve written here.

loydbanks Posted March 23, 2018 Posted March 23, 2018 I am sorry to hear about your situation. Been there, but it looks like you were scammed. The guy probably closed his account or got banned for some reason. Whatever it is, he took your money and the finished product. You can contact support , but refunds are initiated via PayPal, so the buyer got his money that way.I’d advice that you spend some time contemplating an alternative option. Tell you family that things are not going as expected. They might say, "Oh, we told you that it’s online work and there’s no credibility and the fraud ratio is high and blah blah.
