PayPal has reversed the payment for the order itself - why?


In very rare and justified cases, PayPal may reverse payment directly from your account to the buyer's account. You should receive information about the reason for this decision from PayPal in an email.

If the order to which the payment is reversed is still in progress, its status will be set to "on hold" and this information will go into your order history.

If the order has already been shipped, its status will not be changed, but the information about the withdrawal of the payment by PayPal will be noted in its history.
