Thanks @sharpiemarker    All I've ever used my Paypal account for is since 2020 lockdown, online quizzes became popular and quizmasters ask you to pay by Paypal.  That's all I've ever used it for.  Thousands of people do, and why has this not been a red flag until now?   Seems unfair to freeze your account without saying why and not allowing it to be closed.   That means it's going to be sitting there unused forever onwards and so always be at risk. ...
