Question about PayPal Invoices received for orders placed last year
I have a question for my friends out here about PayPal invoicing.
I placed some online orders for collectibles in 2019 and I paid through PayPal. I had received email notifications that part of the orders were cancelled because the vendor didn't have stock. Today I am receiving PayPal invoices from the vendor for some of the cancelled items that they claim shipped to me but did not charge me for. In the invoice it says that PayPal wouldn't fund it. I now have to search through my collectibles and verify if the items were received. The order numbers and SKUs that they reference line up with my order history, so someone could be doing an audit and trying to recover from past shipping mistakes.
I am worried because the PayPal Invoices that the vendor is sending me through PayPal are at the vendor's internet domain, but belong to individuals. ie: instead of orders@vendor.ca the paypal address is (asian sounding name)@vendor.ca. Could an employee at the company have set up a PayPal account through their work email and be sending invoices out on their own? Would there be any legal ramifications if I ignore the invoices? Can the vendor open a dispute and take the funds from me through PayPal without my permission? What do I do?
