Stripe Venmo scam buyer reversed payment — How to Get Funds Released

I'm in a difficult situation and trying to figure out my next steps.

Venmo scam buyer reversed payment. I've been dealing with this for about 7 weeks now and the situation isn't improving.

The amount being held/disputed is approximately $20,140. I have tried contacting their legal department 4 times with no resolution.

What's the typical outcome in situations like this?

This happened to me too. Have you tried filing a complaint with the relevant agency? In my case they investigated and it got resolved without needing a lawyer.

NAL, but from what I've read, you should send a written demand. That said, definitely get a lawyer to look at the specifics.

Just want to point out — the statute of limitations might be a factor here. In some states it's as short as 1-2 years. Don't sit on this too long.

I work in this industry and unfortunately this is very common. The good news is that when people actually push back with legal representation, companies usually settle.

I've dealt with this before.

I ended up hiring an attorney to send the initial letter, which cost about $2-4 but saved me a lot more in the long run.
