Account limitations may prevent you from completing certain actions on your account, such as withdrawing, sending or receiving money. They're a security measure that we implement to help protect both PayPal buyers and sellers.

The time it takes to resolve a limitation depends on the type of limitation
on your account.

We suspect that someone have tried to use your account without your consent.

We advise that you immediately confirm your identity with us by filling in the form
that we have attached in this email. Your information will be reviewed by our security team. Furthermore, once we have verified your identity, your account should be restored.

If you have attempted to resolve the problem but find that your account is still limited, check your email in case PayPal has requested further information.

We understand that this can be law frustrating. We hope that you can get this quickly resolved.

Sincerely,
PayPal"
