After trying to upgrade my premium account to business - to add a donate button on my youtube - I was then RESTRICTED and LOCKED out of my PAYPAL account. PAYPAL INSISTED I SHOW MY PASSPORT - for proof of ID after ALREADY HAVING MY FULL ID which included DRIVERS LICENSE ADDRESS OLD AND CURRENT BANK ACCOUNT CREDIT CARD PHONE NUMBER All of which they have had and VERIFIED since 2004. I Aslked for my request for business account be downgraded to my original account due to NOT wanting to provide this EXTREMLY PERSONAL INFORMATION - and after 2 phone calls and 5 emails they did - however they STILL INSIST on my PASSPORT FOR PROOF OF ID?? OK I'm DONE - please close my account. Period. THEY THEN SAID THEY COULD NOT UNTIL I PROVIDE A PASSPORT FOR ID??? The reason - THEY SUSPECT I AM A TERRORIST OR A MONEY LAUNDERER ?????? I am telling everyone to CLOSE their PAYPAL accounts - also dealing with Australian media to expose this seedy company that DOES NOT EVEN HAVE AN OFFICE IN THE COUNTRY THEY TAKE MILLIONS OF DOLLARS FROM??? If anyone should be under investigation - it is a "company" like PAYPAL that requests PRIVATE GOVERNMENT INFORMATION for their own SUSPECT REASONS. PAYPAL - YOU ARE NOT ABOVE CITIZENS RIGHTS IN THAT RIGHT TO PRIVACY - ESPECIALLY WHEN ASKING TO CLOSE AN ACCOUNT. CRIMINALS!
