From what I know, as pp have already asked you for additional information, if you do not provide it, they will close you down anyway.

If you do not provide it you account will be a goner.

I would not sell anything on that account and would not leave any money in it either unless you can provide the tax id.

Just let it go and make your business legit and get the EIN. Not hard and you need to report your earnings anyway.

Do you have other accounts up and running to keep the cash flow coming in?

Let this rest or better yet as King said get your EIN because the best selling season is coming up and you wont want to miss it.

Got the same message 3 weeks ago and have continued clicking "remind me later" and its business as usual. I will only add the EID when I have to. Dont be too too concerned, people will have you thinking the sky is falling.

I havent read any panicky posts about this being such a scare but okay.

You can hit the "remind me later" all you want. Then after so long you will get the email saying that you are suspended until you post it. That is a fact so let it go and see.

Its not a problem though as all you have to do is post it and your account is back. That too has been said on these forums by myself as well clearly for all to see.

The people that post that scare stuff know nothing about EIN ro SSN in business accounts. You can see which posts a plain speculation pretty easily.
