Twitch business account asking for Tax ID

I set up a business account because I'm a Twitch streamer and didn't want any of my personal information included when someone donated or tipped. I received a message yesterday saying I needed to report this to the IRS for tax purposes. However, I don't have a tax ID number because it's not a legitimate business. Can someone please provide me with any sort of information on how to approach this? Thank you

In this situation, the best thing to do would be to contact our Customer Care department. You can do this by going to the ‘Contact Us’ link at the bottom of every PayPal page. You will then see what contact options are available to you.
