Will my account be investigated aftter being limited?

[JohnH]

My account was limited and i have $1400 in the account. my recent transactions are $1500 in gifts for the month... of course this was a sale. i didnt want to pay paypal's fee. so i am hoping after providing them with my documeents they unlimit my account and dont look through my recent history. can someone please confirm?

if they do i might lsoe the funds because i didnt do buy or sell service goods.


I think i had like 8-9 transactions this month totaling $1500 in gifts.

not sure what to tell paypal if they ask why do i have 9 transctions from people from different states as gifts this month.... not sure if i can provide them my paperwork and get lifted or if an agent manually looks through my account.

It's manually looked at for sure...

Are you paying yourself?

[JohnH]

well **** just submitted my drivers lisence.

no i was receiving payments from people . i dont have an ebay account. just recieved payments for online personal training. and didnt feel like having them pay the fee.

but the reason i was limited was because i used a different ip to sign on... it says we want to just make sure no one has signed in your account. as the reason for limited. not because of transactions.

uh now i have anxiety.

What else is pp asking?

[JohnH]

they asked me to change my password, my bank account details and a new secuirty question then my phone number. problem is i went to put my new burner verizon phone number in and it said my phone wasnt registered in my name... so i ended up providing my drivers lisence.

i had two charge backs total and about 50 successful gift transactions... the two chargebacks i just ignored because they sent as gift... they charged back because they didnt see results on my diet plan .. assholes... none of the chargebacks were recent. i think paypal detected a new VPN and thats how it got limited.

i gave them my bank account details... i then gave them drivers lisence. i hope they just want proof of idetntity and dont look througn my entire paypal or i may face paypal buyer seller evasion fees. and i hope they dont reverse all my gift transactions and clear my bank account!

Well i use a different ip every time i log into a stealth paypal so cant see that being the only reason for limitation. much more likely your gift transactions triggered it.

i didnt get limited till i added a new bank account and then tried to withdrawal. (my old bank account expired. so i needed to add a new bank account to withdrawal funds) my last gift transaction was a few days old. and it was working fine. i just endd up getting limited when i tried to withdrawal. so hoping that is the cause and not the gift transactions. as then i may as well say good bye to that 1 thousand.

just to give you guys an update. paypal lifted the limited account after i gave them my drivers license. what a huge relief. but def time to clear out my funds. and create a new paypal account with another bank account.

Also, stiffing PayPal out of their fee's is a huge risk....if you keep doing that, your going to have the same problem....pay the fee's.
