Default Paypal is hunting down and taking action

Today my Paypal received a limitation.. weirdest thing ever..

An EBAYYY Rep called me telling me that she wanted to review
my account selling limits ( raise my limits basically ) and she
said that my Paypal was limited, so instead she had to go ahead
and cancel all my listings; and restrict my Selling until i fixed everything with
Paypal.

I told her that it was fine and that i would give them a call.

I called Paypal and they said....
Yes, we limited your account because we feel their was suspicious activity.

I asked for more...
They said....
No, thats it. We just feel that it is a suspicious account.

--------------
--------------
This account has a
R-eal Bank
-A VCC (both verified and linked)
-A real address
- Got my limits raised to 100 2 weeks after i started selling
- 98% feedback on ebay
- above selling standards..

My conclusion.. I think they're being more aggressive.. and getting rid of these accounts..

No i don't think they are 'catching on'

Did your 'receiving' money patterns change? were you selling risky items?

Not at all.
If not i wouldn't have posted this..

And i agree.
I would'nt say "catching on"

But they're def being more aggressive than before.
Since they're "independent"

Things are always tougher as the holiday season approaches. This is normal. They will NEVER tell you WHY they feel the account is suspicious. If they did that, they would basically be telling you how to avoid detection in the future. But something must have triggered this. Most of us are not having issues, so it is not like they suddenly got 50% smarter or anything.
