I've heard this a few times over the years, I'm not sure if it's urban legend, speculation, or based on something that actually happened. OP claims they worked at Paypal so they may not be willing to go into detail, or it may just be completely made up for Internet points (which so far seems to be backfiring).
I came across a video[1] a few days back while looking at electric car hobbyist stuff that makes the same accusations as OP. According to the Youtuber, when he had hundreds of transactions at once via a group buy on an account that he claims has moved millions of dollars through Paypal as a business account, Paypal froze the funds and he suggested to his customers that Paypal did it so they could invest the funds for six months and make a ton of interest. It's a bit tin-foil-hat sounding but it's just plausible enough to make one wonder.
