i don't know if this applies as a vendor but i didn't know where else to put it. I also hope i'm not breaking any rules to post this issue, at least i don't think i am, but if so then i will remove it promptly.
probably like most of you that buy and sell on the classified here, you will use paypal personal payment option and send money as a gift to save paypal charges.
well today i go a couple of emails from paypal asking me if these payments really where gifts or if they were online purchases.. i'm not sure if it's an automatic message or if they were screening my comments in each payment, but it worries me.
now i know i'm taking a risk by using the gift option, but i don't know if paypal has any authority to suspend my account if they do believe i am using this option for purchases. i'm probably being paranoid, but it's bothering me..
