Sort-of happened to me. Someone sent me a large amount of money unsolicited. (5 figures.) This wasn't a scam, just a very dumb woman who can't remember her teenage son's email address even though I've haf the address longer than he's been alive. I logged-in and canceled the erroneous transfer to return her funds to her, but unbeknownst to me a small automatic charge for a domain name had gone through since I received the money. Ordinarily I keep $0 in my Paypal account and Paypal automatically deducts the funds from my bank account. But apparently when reversing a transaction instead of covering any shortfall from my bank automatically, they charged me a $100 insufficient funds fee and THEN deducted the fee + shortfall from my account. Absolutely infuriating.

That thing where recurring payments subtract from your PayPal balance before the assigned payment method is, as you put it, absolutely infuriating. It put me off of PayPal so hard.
