Know what's comical about this?
A few months ago I purchased some design services from someone and paid them around $60 via PayPal. A few days letter PayPal notified me my account was being closed due to my paying for gambling with my PayPal funds.
I was stumped as I'd never gambled in person, let alone online. I don't even buy lottery tickets!
So, I investigated and they said the person I paid for design uses his funds for gambling. Mmm, ok. And that person pointed out to me in the PayPal TOS where paying at this certain location was allowed (or paying to this entity, whatever it was).
So, I emailed PayPal and told them they'd better investigate a little further as I paid someone for design work. I pointed out that this was discussed in public on a forum dealing with a script, and if they checked my account, they would see I paid for that script the week before with PayPal funds. I also told them if the designer chose to gamble, I should not be punished for using him as a designer.
I figured they'd want some documentation, and I waited. But nope, they asked for nothing, instead they emailed me 2 apologies and said their investigation turned up no evidence of illegal gambling on either of our parts and my account was now restored.
I was pretty surprised due to all the horror stories with PayPal, including my own in the past.
