Paypal is requesting copies of my utility bills, copy of my Social Security card, a copy of a government ID. What else is needed, a DNA sample?. I have had this account for more than five years now. My account is verified. How is this possible?. If they do not reinstall my full account settings within two days. I will close my account for good. They are not a non-for profit, or a government entity, they are making money of my transactions. And they are certainty, not a bank. I like to do business with them, but with this restrictions I am seriously thinking about it. I am not willing to provide my personal information and just wait for a hacker to retrive it.

due to recent money laundering and anti terrorism acts,Paypal has no choice but be more demanding,we all have to give our SS number,utility bill is to prove you live at where you claim to be your address,so please comply.
euro zone countries have to do the same,UK,Canada.
