    My friend recently bought an item on eBay bought PayPal thinks the payment is 'suspicious' because he paid for it via as a PayPal guest since he doesn't have a PayPal account because he thinks PayPal is unsafe.

    Why is that happening for him and how would you resolve that?

    Hmm, thats weird. As far as I know if the funds are frozen PayPal will not give them up no matter what until they decide where the money should go which usually takes a couple of weeks.

    If he did not had a paypal account, how was the payment done ?
    As far as I know paypal users can't accept payments directly sent from credit cards. However if you have a paypal account you can send payments via credit card as well (paypal credit card payment).

    BTW where is your friend from, which country ?
    Only users from the 103 countries supported by Paypal can use it to pay other members either via credit card or from the paypal balance.

    He sent the payment via a credit card as a PayPal guest. He is from the United States.
