Had exactly the same problem, a relative has been trying to send me money as personal payment over a week and the same message is displayed. also tried to send as payment for goods, but they charge higher taxes. only difference is that they refuse to complete it also to my country, Brazil. it seems Russia is blocked from receiving personal payments too. contacted paypal but had no answers. doesn't seem a system problem at all and more like some burocratic problem with those countries policies. maybe they simply took 'em off without warning and who knows if and when this service will be restored. they at least owed to explain WHY this is happening.
