PayPal is constantly working to ensure security by regularly screening the accounts in our system. We recently reviewed your account, and we need more information to help us provide you with secure service. Until we can collect this information, your access to sensitive account features will be limited. We would like to restore your access as soon as possible, and we apologize for the inconvenience. Why is my account access limited?

Your account access has been limited for the following reason(s):

Oct. 24, 2007: We recently received a report of unauthorized credit card use associated with this account. If you now realize that this was a legitimate use of your credit card, please contact PayPal Customer Service.

(Your case ID for this reason is PP-329-840-752.)

Oct. 22, 2007: Unusual account activity has made it necessary to limit account access until additional verification information can be collected.
