Why does Paypal want documents?
BlackCurtains:
I've had my Paypal account since 2010 and it's remained largely unchanged, maybe a new phone number or to update expiry dates on cards. Anyway, for whatever reason they're wanting to confirm my identity by either sending a photo of my ID or something with my name and SSN on it. I know they already have access to my bank and all but I'm feeling a little uncomfortable about this. Why now after all this time?
Did anyone have to do this? What happens if I ignore it?
Sprinkles:
Sounds like a scam to me. Probably someone wanting to steal your identity. Best ignore it.
kellyponyfeathers:
Call Paypal to confirm and avoid a possible scam.
tailrustedtealeaf:
Yikes, did they request via email? Definitely sounds like a scam.
BlackCurtains:
It's a notification on the account itself.
Calling is a good idea.
