verify your identity
 

I have some PayPal limited at the same time with the message : verify your identity we are obliged to verify your identity for the legislation etc..,
It can be because they have been opened all these 5 accounts 6 months ago at the same time ?

Re: verify your identity
 

Got the same messages as well on my limited paypal accounts.

Re: verify your identity
 

Were they limited at exactly the same time? If so they were more than likely linked in one way or another. Would need more info to make a more educated guess as to what linked them all.

Re: verify your identity
 

They were limited at the same day,ln minutes different
I have opened all the accounts the same day 6 months ago
I can still use for now all the PayPal function (all green v)
There is no linking I think keeped everything separate

Re: verify your identity
 

Sounds like they are linked in some way too me, what are the chances all 5 are limited on exactly the same without being linked?pretty small i would say.

Re: verify your identity
 

May be...I have also thought thatb PayPal ask sometime the verification after 6 months and those accounts were opened all the same day 6 months ago
The same message I have for all paypals do not talk about strange activities or similar

Re: verify your identity
 

You Assume that is linked how can you prove ?

Re: verify your identity
 

Isn't it the standard Europe verification?
They ask it when you reach around 2000 euros, but sometimes with much less.

Re: verify your identity
 

Paypal does NOT automatically ask for verification after 6 months.

If something happened to all 5 accounts on the same day, it means either:
A) You did something to get limited, on each of the 5 accounts on the same day
B) You did something to get limited, on 1 of the 5 accounts, and the others were linked

Did you log into any of these from the same IP? Did you use the same phone number or card? Anything else you did with these accounts at the same time?
