heathunter881 | 12-22-2010 07:34 PM | Paypal Limited - Owe them money from early 2000s?! One of my longest Paypal account was recently limited today. I've had this account for well over 2+ years. Today they told me that my account was linked to another account back in 2002 or 2001, and that I owe them x amount of money. The rep had mentioned that the SSN on the account belongs to me but the name doesn't.
First off, how can Paypal still chase me for a case that happened eons ago? And secondly, how would I remember after 6+ that I ever made this transaction? I had told the rep that my identity got stolen before, so this might have been the cause. I even called ER Solutions (debt collector for eBay) to find out more info about this case and they couldn't find anything.
One thing I do know, I'm not paying Paypal $ for something that happened 6+ years ago. If this case happened a year ago then they actually have a case, but to tell someone they owe Paypal x amount of cash after years of waiting will not sit well with anyone.
Any tips on what to do? My case was resent to the review team. I believe the linked account also has the same registered address and SSN#, but it has a different name, bank info, email address, credit card info. |
