Paypal shuts me down for doing Paypal loads

I’ve lost count on how many times I’ve been shut down by Paypal. I had heard of a mini wave of shutdowns in early January, but I figured the train had left the station for my account anyway. Sure enough, about two weeks ago, Paypal asked me to verify some transactions basically asking me what goods I sold. This was for transactions dating back to mid February mind you. The transactions were Paypal loads and I told them as such. Sure enough, a week later, my account was permanently limited. RIP that Paypal account.

I do need to note that I never withdrew my Paypal funds. All the drains were via PPBDC. The other odd thing is that they didn’t ask about my other Paypal accounts, which I also did at the same time, so it was almost random that they asked about this account and not the others. Lesson learned – have multiple Paypal accounts ready to go because they will eventually axe you for stupid shit like this.
