Paypal Unfairly Closed my account!!! San Jose, California Internet
Paypal suddenly closed my account when someone hacked my account.
They told me that I had similar account and that account was associated with dhgate.com. (to them dhgate was very suspicious). I bought something at dhgate with NO PROBLEM whatsoever just 1x.
I used paypal to pay for ANYTHING and used it on regular basis. Nothing illegal. I even used them mainly to pay and rarely to sell. Mostly I like to shop in ebay. Now they tell me I'm VERY risky and they don't want to deal with me.
Now, can you please tell me HOW I am risky? There was just one time problem where someone hacked my account and now you tell me I am risky? Reversing payments are all it takes. The sellers even agreed to refund me without any hassles involved.
How am I risky? It's not even my fault that I got hacked. (even though they told me this is not the reason why my account was closed)
I've been a good customer to both paypal and ebay and this is how they treat me in return. Guess what!! Amazon.com has better customer service!! They never closed my account! I had less return because the stuffs they sent me are good quality!! Amazon.com is now similar to ebay!! You can find anything now!! ALL the paypal haters!! Don't hesitate to change to amazon.com!!!
They allow you to use credit card easily!! You don't need paypal!!! They sell world brands there! China, Korea, Japan, India, anything can be found in amazon and at cheaper rate with FREE shipping!!!
I am not associated with amazon.com at all. I just found their customer service to be VERY RELIABLE when it comes to return and refund!! and comparing to my ebay purchase, I only had 2x returns out of hundreds of purchases I had at amazon. Ebay is full of crooks and BS!! Amazon will never scam you! ebay and paypal will! it's not worth the time!!!

Just thought of a possibility that they closed your account to prevent the hacker from doing more damage, like reporting a problem with a credit card, they issue you a new card.
Its high risk keeping the same credit card number, after being misused by someone, unknown to the user of the card.
I had someone hack into my account from unknown person, took out money, from PayPal account and both Credit Card numbers stored there once, yet had several returns from people who cheat also. I had same ID and Changed Email and Password to continue.
Then later someone sent email to both email accounts, to get me to refuse something I bought, they refused to pay me after telling me to do it, I called them on the phone, they promised to pay me, told me to wait, yet later refused to do what they promised, to me it sounds like someone at Paypal was looking for someway to cheat me.
Ebay or Paypal can do strange things sometime, I agree.

You should probably browse this site and look at the complaints on amazon. They aren't any better.
As for high risk, you got hacked. Even getting hacked once means you are high risk. It shows that you are not careful with your internet security.
