Thank You

From their website...

When you send money online to friends or family in the US from your bank account or balance, it's free for you and the recipient. When you buy a service or product, we charge the seller our normal low rate of 2.9% + $.30.

If you pay for a good or service you aren't supposed to use FF, according to PayPal policy.

That being said there are generally no protections from paypal when money is sent via Friends and Family. They don't have liability in that sense and don't charge for that service.
