    well guys i had a pp acc for a while without problems
    a few days ago i had received a payment of almost 250$ and it seems to be a fraud payment a few hours later they held that amount
    but the problem is 2 days later they limited me and i really don't understand why
    especially that i didn't use my acc after they held the 250 bucks
    what i have to do now?
    they are asking me about some confirmations
    should i send what they are requesting ? will i have any legal problems if i receive fraud payments in my acc ? cuz i usually sell some ecurrencies for PP and i will not investigate about my buyers each time i'm selling(i know this is against their TOS but i've never had problems with that b4 , never mentioned it in the memo)
    well plz guys if u can help with something post it here or pm me i really don't know what to do
    they said i can not close that acc and open a new one with the same bank acc
    can i use a VCC later to verify an acc without problems?
    P.s: i'm resident in the USA

    Since you are in USA, why don't you call them?
    Why do you need a VCC in USA? You can easily get a credit card, unless you are bankrupt...

    Well, they just need clarification from you so why not just provide them with what they need so that they can put this matter behind them and you can move on with your life.

    Typically, we do encounter frauds once in a while and if we cooperate, we will not be penalized for it.

    However with that said, you knew the risk and the consequences that you entered by going against their AUP so it looks like a lost cause for you.

    Just a warning, PayPal can for any reason, at any time FREEZE your money and gold it for 6 months. For this reason I use Google Checkout.

    Always make sure you ask paypal to auto sweep your account every night and if you intent putting in more than $1000 a month ask them to fully verify you i.e passport, bank statments etc. If not and you have a high revenue site you can lose a fortune
