Looking for advice on a legal issue. Here's what happened.

Venmo scam buyer reversed payment. I've been dealing with this for about 15 weeks now and the situation isn't improving.

The amount being held/disputed is approximately $47,955. I have tried contacting their legal department 8 times with no resolution.

What are the risks if I pursue this? What's the likely timeline?

I've seen this play out several times in my field.

In my case, it took about 4-8 months to resolve. The key was filing with the appropriate government agency.

What worked for me was filing with the appropriate government agency. It took 4-8 months but was worth it.
