IVE BEEN SCAMMED , PLEASE HELP

[k.khyto.1wqo4w8w]

Seller initially apologisedand said he had a family death and i would receive the item i paid 450 for no later than yesterday.
however he has removed all listings and isnt replying any longer. 

i go to claim, but because i used paypal as a guest i have to sign up, so i go to and it says to input the transaction ID. that i should have a copy in an email, however i do not have a receipt number for the item. or an email receipt. Yet it still says that i hgave paid for the item. 

im confused as to what exactly is going on or how to take anything further. but it is distressing me.

could anyone help please

I think one of the most important things is to use the same email address to open the Paypal account as was used with the payment or add it as an extra address if already opened one with a different address, as long as the card details and the email address are the same the transaction should appear in Paypal and a dispute can be opened as normal.

If that does not prove to be the case then the buyer can ask their card provider to do a chargeback.
