Paypal dispute

Hello everybody,

Yesterday I recieved two emails regarding a paypal dispute.

First email looks like this:

Hello Adrian-Daniel Bacanu,

Recently, PayPal received a notification from a user regarding unauthorized access to his PayPal account. As a result, one of the payments credited to your PayPal account has been placed in a temporary hold while we investigate the claim.  PayPal constantly monitors transactions for unauthorized use of accounts in order to maintain the safety of our users.
The details of this transaction are as follows:

Transaction Date: Jan 16, 2013
Transaction Amount: $24.00 USD
Buyer's Email: xxxxxxxxxx@hotmail.com

If you have already shipped goods,  please provide PayPal with the following information:

1) Tracking Number of Shipment

If you have provided a refund to the buyer, please provide PayPal with the following information:

1) Date of Refund

If you have any questions, please contact Customer Service.
Good selling practices, like trackable shipping, prompt shipment, and communication between buyer and seller help prevent disputes.
Thanks,

Second:

Hello Adrian-Daniel Bacanu,

An unauthorized account activity claim was recently filed against the
following transaction.

Sender’s name: Blackmailer

...

The idea was to make an exchange. I will give him x$ on Liberty Reserve (as gift) and he will give me x$ on Paypal (not as gift). At the beginning I was blinded, but afterwards I realized what I have done. The funny thing was that he made the claim only now, but here is where Paypal interferes.

I have sent my proofs to Paypal and they start analyzing the case.

Today, surprise, I receive email from Paypal telling me that my money were sent back to my account BECAUSE on the Blackmailer’s account was no unauthorized access, so only he himself could send the money.

The email from Paypal sounds like this:

Hello Adrian-Daniel Bacanu,

We have completed our investigation of the transaction below and were
unable to find evidence of unauthorized access to the buyer’s account. This
case was denied to the buyer and no funds were recovered from your account.
