Why is my account access
restricted?
Your account access has been restricted for the following reason(s):

additional information from you in order to provide you with a secure
service.

We have reason to believe that your account was accessed by a
third party as different computers have logged into your PayPal
account and multiple password failures where presented before the logons. We
now need you to re-confirm your account information to us. We understand that
having restricted access can be an inconvenience, but protecting your account
is our primary concern.
