"Interesting".
And I thought the practice of scaring me with "unusual activity on your account", then locking me out until I am sending them all the required proof of identity (photocopy of ID, proof of postal address, ..., that they demand and as a private corporation will handle and store and review this very sensitive set of data some sort of way by who knows who.... ).
When I sent what they asked for and asked them about the nature of the "unusual activity" and if they reported it to the relevant authorities (possible breach of a monetary account) the response was a big fat nothing. I thought to ask them to provide the evidence on the "unusual acctivity" after this as I plan to contact local authorities myself to report the hacker of my account or whatever the "unusual activity" prompting strict measures required was - must be serious and illegitimate! - but decided not to. Does not worth the effort.
Rather I closed my account for good and not looking back. I will not rely on them this way, I thought. And from the above list I believe I was right. I did not regret this so far in the past ca. 5 years.
Bye Bye PayPal.
