Due to some suspicious activities my paypal account was limited today. Someone tried to access my account and I found suspicious buying order mail.
It was a shocking for me. I had decided to upgrade my system with the money there and I will have to wait until this issue resolves.

Hi, I am sorry to hear about this. I had the same experience before too wherein someone hacked into my account and took money that was left on my paypal. This is why I no longer leave money on my paypal and make sure that I withdraw them right away just to be safe.

This is sad to hear. Are you sure about that? Because I am currently working as freelance writer for an Indian and he pays me via paypal. Hmmm..I hope it won't push through, then.

oh no. Make sure to change your password religiously and don't open your account in public pc's or even on a wifi free zone where people share internet connections. There is this site that tells you how to keep your paypal account safe and secure you might check that out. Hope that thing won't happen to me in the future.

my paypal is also limited. I have to wait 6 months, to take my money in Paypal. A very long time. I also do not know, how that my paypal is not limited. I've sent several documents, which recommend Paypal, but still limited. Until now my paypal account is still limited, but I can take my money, just everything I do is very limited, I can not send money to another paypal account, I can only take my money alone. Each open Paypal, there is always a warning that your account has been restricted for more than 180 days. Account will remain restricted, but you now have the ability to withdraw funds.

I had recently, opened a paypal account. I have never taken money from paypal. My paypal is still empty, and has never been filled. I also worry, things that happened to you, would happen to me too. I often hear stories of several people who have problems view paypal account. I really hope, I will never have a problem with my paypal account.
