Suing over borders. Did I mention small company? What would it cost me, in 2007, to sue a US company from my country in europe? With what chance of winning?

I am not sure about the year 2007, but in 2026, they need to be under your monetary authority somehow. That's why most crypto exchanges do not offer service in Europe. Your monetary authority might have a form or an email for complaint and depending on how pro-active they are, they can make the other counter-party very proactive.

They're actually a European company, or else they can't operate there. The European company is probably a subsidiary of an American one.

You sue the European subsidiary which will be a regulated bank, unlike US PayPal.

Especially after they already stole all your money.
