PayPal's customer support reply to this problem, after attempting to send 0.01 (I have more than 15000 in my PayPal and I can't even send 0.01): My name is Donna, a PayPal Customer Support Specialist. I can sense your desire to send using your PayPal balance and it did not go through. Let me look on to it and see what happened. I reviewed your account and I saw that your P0.01 PHP is being blocked by PayPal’s Security Program. Our anti-fraud practices and transaction reviews, while in place for the good of everyone, occasionally affects an account in good standing such as yours. Let me share with you that our security system looks at the patterns of payments, what the payment is for, to whom it will be sent to, you access your account in a different location or if a different computer was used for a specific transaction, etc. which is similar to how Banks and Credit Card companies work. You have my assurance that your PayPal account can still be used for future transactions. As a business, we would also like this payment to go through because that's how we earn money. If you’re confident though, you can definitely use a different payment processor outside PayPal only for this transaction. We'd rather prioritize your security than our profit. Alternatively, to reduce the chances of your payment being blocked, it is still your option to ensure that you are making the payment using the computer that you have used before, to access your account using a secure connection, and to use a different browser. PayPal does not do face to face transactions and since there are literally thousands of transactions that happen every minute, then a person cannot manually check if each transaction is legitimate. Please keep in mind that this is our way of taking care of you and your PayPal account. We hope you understand. We value you as a part of our PayPal family and I'm glad I was able to resolve it for you today. Thank you for choosing PayPal. Sincerely, Donna PayPal
