If you opened your PayPal account before you were 18, and there’s ANY evidence of this, SHUT DOWN YOUR ACCOUNT AND USE YOUR REAL INFORMATION FOR A NEW ONE IF YOU NEED TO.
NO JOKE
PAYPAL IS SHUTTING DOWN ACCOUNTS THAT WERE OPENED BEFORE YOU WERE 18.
Sharing this here because I know this will affect a LOT of artists here.
PLEASE share this, this is super urgent and I don’t want any of you losing your funds.
Seriously, this is not a joke or scam. Check the comments of that Medium article, or the Reddit comments.
Apparently PayPal will try to re-ban you if you use the same cards or whatnot, so if you need an alternative, try Google Wallet. (Because Google won’t let a damn industry go untouched.)
If you see your work as more as a business, try Stripe.
LAST REBLOG.
BECAUSE IT’S FUCKING IMPORTANT.
