All I did when confirming my identity is miss one number on my SSN... and my whole account is banned from adding money until I send PayPal all these ridiculous forms I don't even know about in order to resolve the problem.
It's asking for a form of ID, which I know about. I scanned my passport.
Then it's asking for proof of address?? I'm a minor living with my parents – how am I supposed to know where to get a utility bill that is not older than 6 months? And even if I do get a utility bill my name won't be on it so how do I prove that I live here?
WHY do I even have to prove that I live in my house?
It's also asking for a copy of an official document holding my social security number. I have no idea how I can access that or where that kind of document exists.
I just messed up ONE NUMBER on my social security number! Why is PayPal suddenly demanding that I show them all these documents? I just want to add money onto my account and live in peace!
Is there an easier way I can do this? Can I get in contact with someone working in PayPal so I can finally PROVE that I'm a real person and bypass all this document bullcrap?

If you are a minor and under 18 then you should not even have a paypal account.
If you are over 18 then you should be grown up enough to understand the importance of providing correct information on a legal document.

Kudos / Solution appreciated.
