What causes paypal to limit your accounts?

From your perspective, what causes paypal to limit your account?

Just trying to be cautious here.

I've had my ebay and paypal for close to ten years. Funds have moved back and forth over the years.

Never had any red flag/verification issue.

What is it about dropshipping that it causes paypal to want to limit the account? What are they looking for?

Maybe you ask this question directly to Paypal? I think that would help you a lot. They are the direct party

They could limit your account if they aren't sure about your identity. ( Stealth accounts etc)
They can limit your account if some sort of suspicious activity is detected on your paypal account. (Paypal being logged into a foreign country etc)
If you get reported for something that's prohibited in the Paypal's TOS section or just simply get reported/disputed. (You may get temporarily limited until resolved)
They can also limit you if they think you are planning to scam people with your products etc.
Very basic stuff.

Also you can get limited if you get enough payments to be considered high risk. Always best to spread your payments between a couple of stealth accounts.

Yeah, If one paypal started receiving a lot of payments or High transactions, The risk is high getting that account locked. Even can be locked same day.

-After 3-4 refunds you will get a verification
-Too many transaction
- If you reach 10k in a month atleast for me
- dropshipping because from their policy they don't accept it but everyone is using them anyway

This is directly from PayPal:
An account may be limited for a variety of reasons. When you log into your account, you will see a message explaining the reason behind the decision to limit your account.

Possible reasons could include:

• Possible unauthorised account access
• Unresolved buyer disputes or credit card chargebacks
• Violations of our User Agreement or Acceptable Use Policy
