"Paypal"

If someone send me money (not through Ebay) will they be able to withdraw it once i've received it?

Thank you.

we have alot of ethnic minorities at the hospital I work at (so dies every hospital I think) I had to take someone over to the mainland (brighton) and the nurse escort couldn't speak alot of English, yet was called Paul!

And therefore it's perfectly alright to steal from him.

That doesn't mean anything, only he that used a different name on his E-Bay account, which as far as I know isn't against the law. Stealing money however....

But the guy ran away when my dad asked him to sign as proof that he has the mobile. He said he didn't want any pictures taken of him and that he didn't want to sign anything.

You really are making this whole "he had shifty slitty eyes and avoided CCTV and didn't want photos taken and spoke funny and didn't want to sign anything and didn't have any ID" crap up.

I didn't steal from him though.
He paid via Paypal before my dad met him, when my dad met him he refused to sign and wouldn't come right outside his office because there was a CCTV camera there.

Now, why would someone just run off just because he saw a CCTV camera?

I keep saying I but it is actually my dad who met him BTW, just so that it makes more sense.

Regardless of whether he looked/acted shifty or not, you have stolen £330 from him.

If the blokes stupid to pay someone without even seeing the person, or recieving the phone, just sit on it a few weeks, or phone the police and explain your situation to them.
This isn't an example of theft. say you refuse to pay because that account is in someone else's name


EDIT: ok, well kinda, but not a simple case of theft.

tell him it's at such a such police station and that he will need ID to get it back. If he's that adverse to being caught on camera or the like you may not hear from him again

No I didn't.
He ran away from his money, if he didn't want to go on with the deal then anymore then he could've easily said so but he didn't, he ran away.
