Default Got a call that I was suspended, But im still selling???

Hello,

I got a call this morning around 11 that I was being slapped with a 12month suspension, I have been able to use my account all day and am still currently selling. Do you know if they are just behind or do you normally get suspended right away? Thanks guys!

Number 801-545-1800

I would sell as much as I can fast with Buy it Now listings or 1 day listings - OR - Stop selling and wait for a while because all the funds you make could be frozen anyways in your Paypal account soon!!!!!!

Yeah I agree, your account is more then likely going to be suspended very soon.

They can stop the transfer if it shows pending, if it shows complete, they cannot. It usually takes around 24 hours from the time you click withdraw, to show complete.

I Never heard of Ebay calling to suspend you, Calling about Verification, and other things, yes, all the time, but to Tell you that you are suspended, Never. Always by E-mail/Message.

Anyone else ever get a call like that?

I've got a call from eBay one time telling me my listing was removed and I will be suspended for 7 days. I didn't answer the phone, they left it on voicemail.

The area code was 801 and showed up as midvale, UT. Anyway as of now I am still up and running hope it lasts as long as it can. I thought the 12m suspension was kind of steep, I had a vero in feb and this past week I had a listing taken down because they did not like the wording I used in the title apparantly "members of the community" questioned the authenticity, her question was if the photo is stamped with a logo why not list it as such? I just said I found my visibility in best search increased using the wording I chose. Maybe she was satisfied with my answer? Im not sure but if it doesnt work out I will try purchasing a account or stealth. Thanks guys

There were scams from that area code. Do you by chance have the whole number?

Did they ask you for any personal information associated with the account? I highly doubt it was Ebay because they always just shut you down by email and then ignore you.

Yup, I suspect that was a spoof call from a competitor going too far or an attempt to phish from you.

The number is 801-545-1800 I called it back and it says its ebay. She didnt ask me for any information and seemed to know all my violations and exactly what I got restrictions for. Well still up and running as of now, do you know if multiple withdrawls from paypal will redflag? I am unsure of when I will get suspended so I dont want to leave any money so far I have done 2 in 24hrs.

I've gotten a phone call for a seven day suspension before. It then happened within minutes of us hanging up.

THIS page. Take note of Drew who posted on April 24 of 2010 (quoted below).

[begin]
I just missed a call from this number. I used the cell number they called to activate my account a few minutes ago, so I don't know who else from Salt Lake City would have called me within an hour of activating my eBay account. So, to everyone who thinks it's a scammer, and not to say that I can't call anyone I want using ebay's number as my outgoing caller id, I highly doubt it was anyone but eBay unless they JUST gave my cell number to someone else. Caller ID "spoofing" only costs me $3.99/year--I only use it for business purposes, not posing as someone else, but it wouldn't be hard for someone to pretend to be eBay.
[end]

Just because ebay does have this number does not mean that it is always genuine. A scam could involve spoofing the caller ID display. Not hard to spoof it and then go on a phishing safari. Since ebay suspension is typically done via email, any call from this number relating to suspension is very likely NOT genuine.

Thanks guys, Im not sure what is going on but I will keep you updated of my status. So as to my second question, when and if my account gets suspended what happens to my paypal? I have been transferring any leftover money and I have done 2 in the past 24hrs am I going to red flag anything???

2 in 24 hours is probably considered suspicious by 'them'. Especially if the amounts and the timing look like you are pretending to not be 'cleaning house'.
