Got robbed by PayPal. Need help :'(
🕑 Added 2025-11-12 02:13:56 +0000 UTCGuys and girls, it's so terrible, it's the worst thing that could happen to me. I'm very frustrated and depressed. My current situation is desperate...
Right after Payout to my PayPal account, PayPal frozen end then permanently disabled my account, locking the money for 6 months. I was basically de-banked and robbed at the same time...
Much more detailed story is on this r/PayPal post.
Long story short:
They accepted payouts and let me work normally for 4 months prior that.
They refused to disclose reason of my ban, saying that the reason 'is confidential and proprietary'.
I'm forced to use PayPal and unable to use anything else of what Patreon offers.
I have no source of income but your support here.
After I was trying to save my mother's life a year ago I was left in big debts, I paid the half at the moment. Almost all my money goes to close that debt and will go there for at least 5 months (even longer now).
My bills grow, I'll have to pay 2 times more + penalties next month.
If I don't find anyone with active Payoneer account who's willing to help me get it to crypto - I will be forced to suspend my arts and find a random job until situation gets better (virtually forever). And I'm almost sure I won't find anyone...
I need your help. I need an advice. An information. Anything:
I can't accept any funds, because PayPal was my only way to get paid. Please tell if you know any organisation I can write a compliant to. Or maybe there is some another form of power that can help me resolve that.
What I tried:
Contact PayPal support
Contact PayPal executive office
Write a compliant on Better Business Bureau

No, I couldn't. I'm working on release anyway, frames are rendering as we speak.

Any update?

Paypal have retarded automated systems to detect "fraudulent activity" which are prone to false flags. I can only suggest try arranging a phone call with Paypal support and explain your situation.

Except I no longer have $100 for a living, cause $40 went today to pay for my website, otherwise there would be no access to videos, since stupid DropBox started to block my links for excess traffic.
