Paypal accounts get limited in less than a week
 

Hi
I sold 4-5 items worth $50 each but paypal limited my verified account due to significant changes. Last week I had the same issue from different account.
I use the same old ebay account that my old paypal got limited a couple of weeks ago which was not linked to that ebay account. I was just using my old paypal address to get the money from ebay
Why would that be?

this exact thing happened to me recently as well, looks like paypal has stepped up their game. And it really matters what items your selling as well. Also make sure the account is at least 3 weeks old

If i reading this right.. Why would you use a PP account that was limited?

Too damn much for a WEEK old account.

are you using entropay ?

Goes against stealth principles. I would say that played a role in getting you linked and suspended.

Furthermore $50 items are moderately high in terms of price. Aim for $5 items to get the account going.

If you are going to sell that amount quickly then the trick is to leave the funds for a few days before you withdraw.

I got the same thing. Sold one thing for $99.99 which is the THIRD item listed on ebay and Paypal got limited right away. Seems like Paypal limited if Ebay restricted or they are totally stepping up

At least you were honest when you chose your aspkin username :rolleyes:

But more seriously, even if you did not try to purchase a $60 item, the account probably would have been limited.
