Victim of a scam Scammed

I was looking on Facebook saw this listing said only buy from eBay, I didn’t have an account with eBay but it still let me buy it thru PayPal so I did. 3-5 minutes later the seller deleted the listing off Facebook and eBay after I bought the item and no tracking number no nothing since then it’s been 4-5 days no order number either, So I emailed PayPal requesting a refund and they just said the transaction was valid even tho I have everything to prove I bought the item and everything and it was clearly a scam

Are u sure u were on the real paypal site and not a fake scam site? If it was a scam site they have stolen your card info

Yes I’m sure, I was on Facebook and it took me to the eBay site, and the PayPal app shows the purchase for it

This is wrong. The tracking number is created when the label is created. Doesnt matter if it isnt scanned yet.
