PayPal limiting accounts if you are selling stamps from Iran or North Korea?
- PayPal have placed limitations on my PayPal account because I sold 4 Iran stamps to a guy in Australia via Ebid. Managed to get in touch via phone to a PayPal rep and he suggested I remove any stamps from Iran or North Korea from my listings on Ebid before further sanctions. I have complied and now have to prove to PayPal that I no longer sell to Iran or North Korea on Ebid...before further sanctions are made to my PayPal account????
I thought the US sanctions were placed on the Iran and North Korea - not on a guy living in Bolton UK?
I have been selling Iran and North Korea stamps since 2009
Below is the advice in an an email from PayPal Compliance Department
1. Remove PayPal as a payment option; or
2. Segregate your checkout to disallow PayPal as a method of payment
for any goods or services originating from Iran and North Korea, or
3. Remove all goods or services originating from Iran and North Korea
from your website.PayPal
item '1' remove PayPal???
item '2' segregate your checkout - no facility to do this specifically for Iran or North Korea in Ebid?
Item '3' already complied by removing 100+ listings from my Ebid site
Can someone from Ebid please advise me about this issue
