Paypal sent the following email in order to explain why my account was restriced from accessing my own money.  As other victims have pointed out, Paypal has an illegal monopoly when it comes to online payments.  If you know of alternatives to using paypal or are interested in working together in class action lawsuits or bring media attention to paypal's thefts you can contact me at(((REDACTED))) @gmail.com

I think we should bring media attention to this issue because paypal has been stealing money from a lot of honest people.  Paypal's illegal monopoly on internet payments would be bad enough if they didn't steal people's money.

PayPal Forced Me To Go Into Foreclosure And Put My Family At Risk

#3Consumer Comment

PayPal put my home in foreclosure and forced my family into the streets by them putting a hold on my business. THey limit my account out of nowhere and nearly caused all of my clients to go elsewhere.

 

I have a home foreclosed and nearly in bankruptcy because of them.

 

PayPal wouldn't offer any help in trying to get my account reinstated. I had to go the "stealth" route and hire Auction Essistance to help me get back on.

So what's your story

As other victims have pointed out,
- Let's see a week or so ago there was another person who complained about Paypal.  Of course when asked what they did they basically said that they used their credit cards to "pay" themselves so they could get the cash.  Which in effect skirted the rules for Cash Advances.

So what do you think you should be able to do that Paypal said NO and limited your account?
