Hello, I am new to this forum. I did enjoy reading a lot of posts and finally decided to sign up.
About a year ago I had my paypal account limited. I was running a forum where members would review torrent websites, buy and sell private torrent invitations and accounts, etc. I have then decided to open up a paypal debit card and write it under my site trademark. I was not involved in torrent selling nor I had anything illegal on the forum. All I was getting is money from members VIP Status and advertising space. I no longer have that forum business, I sold it over half a year ago. I am trying to open up a new business 100% legitimate and I need a legitimate paypal. I want to unlimit this paypal and just close it down and open up a new fresh paypal.
I have changed my first name and opened up new bank accounts under my new name. I am still under the same ISP, same static ip, same address so I don't really want to open up a stealth paypal account especially because I may be in deep shit if they will limit it with a lot of money in it.

Anyways all they saw was the "torrent" keyword and decided to limit it right before I was selling my site. I was receiving payment for that same website but due to the payment being huge that is when they had decided to limit it. I would be willing to pay if someone is able to unlimit my paypal account. Please help me out. I was not previously limited neither I had any disputed. I did have to open a dispute regarding the website sale as I would not able to withdraw the money for the next 180 days.
