My account was limited...again!

Try visiting the Resolution Center. My husband's PayPal account is currently limited (his World of Warcraft account was hacked and they got into his PayPal account, too), and that's where all of the information about the limitation is. Here's the direct link to the page: https://www.paypal.com/us/http://cgi-bin/webscr?cmd=http://_complaint-view/

oh My God.. why you dont convince the paypal??

I think you better report this to Paypal. I get e-mails about once a month like this. It's a phishing scam. I think someone is trying to get your account information. Here's the e-mail address to send it to Paypal. spoof@Paypal.com Since it says one of your purchases is under investigation, that leads me to believe that it is a scam. Do they address you by name, or does it just say Paypal member? If it's addressing you by name, it's real, if not, it's a scam.

Hi! I guess your account has been hacked by someone. You don't have to be worry if your paypal is verified. All you have to do is prepare all documents they are asking for to prove that the account is legit. What if your account is not verified? That is the problem. But, I think you can still be able to verify as long as the name of your paypal is your real name. I hope you will solve it in the future.

I had like 7.36 in my paypal account. within a matter of seconds I saw where someone had put in 1,100.00 in my account. the very next few seconds you saw them take it out as 1,107.36. leaving me a balance of 0.00. I did not catch this right away as I had not made any purchases on ebay. When I went in one day to see what my balance was and then see the two amounts like that I immediately called paypal. naturally they froze my account and did an investigation. they closed that account and opened a new one for me. It only took about a week. Don;t mess with emails call them and get a live person to talk to. it goes so much quicker. Lots of luck to you hon.

If you verified your paypal account to your bank account you will not have a limit, but i also never had a trouble with the limit. I do not even know what is the limit. You alsways can make a new account if you are close to the limit and put your money on that account. I hope for you you can get all your money back you had on that account, if there was much i would put it into your bankaccount if i was you.

Read all the responses, hope they clear it up soon. did they give you any more information than "under investigation", as in why they were investigating?

Are you absolutely certain this email was from PayPal? A common phishing email is to send out an email supposedly from PayPal to get your account details.

wow. i never even get that much in mine. but i have a tendency to put it over in my bank account before it ever reaches like over 50 bucks. thats what you should do put it in your bank account before this happens.

There must have been some reasons for paypal to limit your account. Didn't you violate anything already set out by paypal? You may have forgotten it. Just try to remember it, who knows?

Actually this is the first I have heard of paypal doing this. I wasn't aware that they had limitations. Then again I don't try to keep to much money in my paypal account I am normally transferring it to my bank once I reach a certain amount. I just have the account because like you said most of these sites and companies only pay through paypal. But that is a bit ridiculous in their part.

Hi, I've never heard something like this before. I hardly ever find someone I knew complaining about paypal. If they need to investigate then I'm sure the result will come up quickly. I hope your problem will resolve soon.

You should call them and tell reasonable problem, and then you must send your identity or bill account to open your paypal account. Scan your identity and after 2 hours, they will open your account back. It always happen, if all of paypal consumers receive a huge money from stranger, just tell the reason and prove it.
