I'm in the same situation. I sold something online and I got money sent to my paypal. only to find out that I can't spend it nor could I withdraw by getting check through mail. is this their scam into keeping your money or something? I owe money to my bank and my bank account was closed. it's really pissing me off that I have 140 dollars worth of money that can't be put into good use. man, I'm broke at the moment and I really need the money too.
You need to get your account verified so that you can gain the trust of paypal and that would lift the limitations. It is not a scam because it is hard for paypal to trust anyone because anyone can be a potential scam and if things goes wrong, paypal would have the bare the losses so they want to be sure that you are legit before dealing with you.
Well, how can a person without a bank account or credit card verify? so MY money stays with them if I can't verify? my full name is there if they need to track me down. they would have to use my real name and address to send me a check. I can't cash a check with a fake name on it. how much TRUST do they need?!?!?! Yeah, it's not really considered a scam, but it sounds to me like it's close enough to be related to it. no verification=money stays with them=money is theirs to keep
you have reached the limit already the sending payment is $100 so after that you need to be verify user in order to do unlimited transaction
Absolutely not. Creating multiple account is against the TOS. All it takes is a quick verification and you can be virtually worry free.
I tried to send money and they limited my account. What could be the cause. I am really affraid of sending money from my friend's a/c. Is there any limitation like in the message body and subject you shouldn't write words like adwords, script, plugin etc? Is there any restriction like you can't send money from one country to another country?
