Default IRS invesigation from Paypal? shoule I call Paypal ?

I received an email from Paypal stated as below regarding to my IRS information on one of my stealth accounts.
My stealth account was registered with IRS and has an EIN nnumber posted to Paypal last year, however, i did not update the address on this stealth paypal account though.
Could the address be the issue ?
Should I call Paypal or just communicate with emails ?
Anyone met this before ? any advice ?


Dear XXXX,

I have attempted to reach you regarding information we have received from the IRS that your 1099K did not match IRS records.
If you could please return my call at 877.XXX.XXXX ext XXX at your earliest convenience.
I look forward to speaking with you soon to ensure everything is updated on your PayPal Account.

Sincerely,

Andrew

They only check business name and EIN , nothing else.

It could be you have Spacely Sprockets LLC with IRS and Paypal has jut Spacely Sprockets.

It is not as horrible as it sounds.

paypal 'ask' the IRS if the given info is correct. Response from IRS is Yes or No.

When there is a No, paypal asks the seller to correct the info for tax purposes.

Rare to have issues.

I would just call them and try to get it right. Think they just want to comply with the regulations that they have to deal with. Doesn't sound like they are trying to go after you.

Not as simple as this - can still be flagged for SSN if PP deems fit
