Several limited Paypal accounts went from 180 day hold to 45
So, last month I had several Paypal accounts limited. I eventually received the dreaded 180 day hold email. I happened to check my email on the 14th and have received a new email (for all 3 accounts) from Paypal saying the following:
Dear xxxxxxxxxx,
We routinely review account activity in the PayPal system. When we reviewed
your account, we noticed that your activity violates some of the agreements
you have with us.
Because of this, we’ve limited your accounts and can no longer offer our
services to you. You’ll still be able to log in to view your transaction
history, but you won’t be able to send or receive money.
What’s the problem?
We noticed one or more of the following problems:
1. You provided information that we believe was false, inaccurate, or
misleading; or
2. You sent or received money that was potentially related to fraudulent
activity; or
3. You have more than one account with a negative balance; or
4. You are in violation of the User Agreement, the Commercial Entity
Agreement, the Acceptable Use Policy, or another agreement you have with
PayPal.
Our decision was based on terms outlined in these agreements.
What to do next
As allowed under the User Agreement, we’ll hold the money in your account
for 45 days. We’ll use your balance to reimburse buyers who file claims,
chargebacks, or any other reversals against you. Before we reimburse the
buyer, in most cases, you’ll have a chance to respond to the claim,
chargeback, or reversal.
We’ll send you an email after 45 days letting you know when you can
withdraw money from your accounts.
If you think that we permanently limited your accounts in error, you may
appeal this decision. Just go the Help Center and click Contact Us.
When you contact us, we’ll need some information to process your appeal.
Please have your drivers’ license, your Social Security or tax ID card, a
current utility bill, your business license, your articles of
incorporation, or other identifying documentation.
Sincerely,
PayPal
Hoping this isn't too good to be true. Wondering if anyone else had this happen, and if in fact they would withdrawal funds after 45 days? Also, is it 45 days from the first email, 45 days from this last email or what??

Just wanted to update everyone. I checked ALL of my limited Paypal accounts-I'm talking like 10 accounts (nearly all were created before finding this website and buying the Stealth Book ) and every single one of those limited accounts got the same 45 day email on October 14th.
