Indeed! read the various horror stories that can be found all over the web!
Luckily, I never had anything to do with PayPal, but a relative of mine in
the US had a similar problem to yours (they froze his account with about
$700).

Now, from what I have read, several states in the US are investigating
against PayPal, and some users that have made bad experiences with them are
now also planning to get legal help.

I hope that the FreeBSD Foundation will not actually get in trouble by
using PayPal's services...
