Anyone else get an "unauthorized 3rd party" limitation on July 20th?
Several Paypal accounts all got limited yesterday (July 20th) morning with this email: Quote:
Dear XXXX XXXX,
As part of our security measures, we regularly screen activity in the
PayPal system. During a recent screening, we noticed an issue regarding
your account.
We have reason to believe that your account was accessed by a third party.
We have limited access to sensitive PayPal account features in case your
account has been accessed by an unauthorized third party. We understand
that having limited access can be an inconvenience, but protecting your
account is our primary concern.
Case ID Number: PP-###-###-###
For your protection, we have limited access to your account until
additional security measures can be completed. We apologize for any
inconvenience this may cause.
| It would be a seriously long story to explain why, but I know for a fact this is a load of crap, and was not a legitimate "for my safety" step by Paypal. Did anyone else experience this yesterday? You can PM me if you prefer. Thanks!
