There is not much community can do to assist you but I can give you some helpful advice.   First, check if your bank is denying access from PayPal. Somtimes banks will do this to prevent internet fraud, maybe go have a speak with your bank directly   Then if thats not the case just phone customer support. You can actually do this free through Skype without any credit using there 0800 number ... View more

If it was cancelled there is nothing to worry about. What I recommend is changing all passwords including:   - Steam - Paypal - Email + any other accounts linked to these   I also recommend scanning your computer for malware, spyware and keyloggers. May I suggest doing a full scan with a free program called HitmanPro 3.     ... View more

If you have never done anything with LinkedIn or had your PyaPal affiliated with them then your account could be comprimised. A good measure is to change your passwords on your account and email and make sure to change your security question also. Then maybe do a scan for malware, spyware and keyloggers on your PC that could of got your PayPal and email login information ... View more

PayPal will never ask you to go to a link in the email. And especially wont ask you too provide any login information or bank details. The most they would do in a situation like this is ask you to go to PayPal yourself and sort it out there. Never go to a link from a paypal email if it tells you too Thats when you know its a scam ... View more

You can imagine PayPal's situation oon this... well I will explain   You can easily set up another account or use a friends account to send money too and create a good looking invoice for a hotel room in your situation for example. Once you send that money to the other account, you put it into your bank or something and remove cards from the account. PayPal can not retrieve it. They would then refund you and suddenly your double profitted. Its happened and they don't want to happen again. They will take a lot of measures before refunding on something like this   Its a difficult situation.  ... View more

You can imagine PayPal's situation on a comprimised account. It is different than a scam as it can be faked per say. Let me explain   Say you had a friend in europe or even a VPN etc and created a new paypal account there. You attempt faking a account breach by changing email/password and stuff and then send money to that other account. That other account then has money from you. You then go to PayPal and say you were hacked and money was sent out. If it were the way everyone dreams of they would pay you your money back and sort the issue   But on the other account you send the money elsewhere. Suddenly you doubled your money, PayPal loses money and nobody has a clue   Its a difficult situation.  ... View more

I believe a 30 day placement thing is in place but it has never been confirmed. I do know however that you need to have a confirmed bank account that your using and/or credit card otherwise your account will always be "uncomfirmed" ... View more
