Limited for "suspicious activity"
 

So paypal sends me this message
"We want to confirm that the information in your PayPal account is accurate as we noticed some suspicious activity in your account. To understand this better, we need more information from you. You'll need to provide the requested information to regain full access."
They want: Photo ID, SSN, Bank Statement, Proof of Address.
This is a stealth account with an EIN attached, I would like to get it restored so I don't waste a perfectly good EIN. I can get all the docs thru SECONDEYE but it is worth trying?

I lost many ein and llcs with paypal. its just the game , go file a new one and start over , hope they did not rob you for too much they got me for 5k

Re: Limited for "suspicious activity"
 

I'm very excited for the official release of managed payments

Re: Limited for "suspicious activity"
 

Isn't that actually going to make it tougher than PP though?

Re: Limited for "suspicious activity"
 

I hear its smooth sailings once you successfully get past the initial requests for bank documents, etc.

I would much rather deal with one crazy person than two.

Also, funds are deposited the next day, so bye bye to "holds".

Re: Limited for "suspicious activity"
 

How did they get you for 5k. Usually they release the funds after 6 months. I thought Amazon is the only one holding funds indefinitely? They got me for 30k. No lie. :doh:

Re: Limited for "suspicious activity"
 

If they're asking for all those docs just forget it and start a new account.

Re: Limited for "suspicious activity"
 

If it's bye-bye to holds then it's near bye-bye to stealth as well. Anything else is going to be a field day for scammers and eBay is not that stupid.
Murky waters ahead. :brick:

They verify ssn. Not worth trying.

EINs in Florida are Free, can sign up once a day so by next month you can have 30

Provide what they want you have nothing to loose but everything to gain

Re: Limited for "suspicious activity"
 

same question, waiting for answer

Re: Limited for "suspicious activity"
 

Does the Bank Account Name has to match the Ebay name? Has anyone been there and can comment on that?, I have scoured through the forum and I have not seen any report on the case of a missmatch.

Also can private seller get manage payment?

Re: Limited for "suspicious activity"
 

I got many accounts restored with creative doc's I would provide what they want, you have nothing to lose at this point and everything to gain

Re: Limited for "suspicious activity"
 

I got stealth account and they request id, should I submit a ⊗⊗⊗⊗ id with the same name as the paypal account?

Re: Limited for "suspicious activity"
 

You have a low chance to restore when it comes to this step ! my strategy : Prevention is better than treatment

Re: Limited for "suspicious activity"
 

If you not take a chance they will surely close your account after fes days but you have to take this chance of providing documents

If you talk to agent on the phone, sometimes a really nice agent will help you. If you talk to their Indian bot rep on email, its bye bye
