What for can they block your account in payment system?

The person who has exclaimed indignantly "Why ???” at least once in his/her life seeing a blocked account in the payment system understands the whole seriousness of this article. The problem of funds loss due to blocked accounts becomes more and more acute today and nowadays no one can avoid a situation when hundreds, thousands and sometimes even millions of dollars are blocked in the accounts of payment systems. To escape this, one should be subtly understand what motivates payment systems to block the accounts and what to do in order not to provoke the admins of any payment system to give you a status "blocked".

First of all let’s find out why the payment systems need those account blocking operations. Here everything is a control over the users. Each payment system wants to make sure that it is not used for shady schemes and that it will not have any problems with the government and financial institutions because of its users. That is why, working with payment systems, do not forget to show demonstratively that your business is open and legal.

However when the matter concerns financial issues the platitudes are not enough. Our task is to provide you, dear readers, with the knowledge that will help you avoid the blocking of accounts in payment systems. Thus, let’s consider the most common reasons for blocking the accounts.

This reason is one of the most common in cases of blocked accounts. It is a temporary trouble and the most important thing is that it can be solved. Some payment systems use this reason to block the users’ accounts on purpose and do this almost immediately registration in payment system. It is a kind of forcible way to identify a user, and this is especially effective if the user have some amount in his/her account. Such methods are very actively used by such payment systems as PayPal, MoneyBookers, and sometimes WebMoney. However we cannot be so strict regarding the latter one since WebMoney is usually friendly towards its users.

Especially we would like to warn readers about work with PayPal. This system will thing a lot and may block your account almost on the second day. And then you will need at least one week to gather all the documents identifying you or your company and send them to the US. /p>
Blocking of the account for an unauthorized attempt to access it

The term "unauthorized attempt to access" is treated differently by every payment system. However it is possible to identify the most common reasons for account blocking:
- Attempt of “Trojan” or any other malware to access the account. Here we can give only one advice – use antiviruses, antispyware and firewalls.
- Different IP addresses used to access the account.

Here, the seriousness of the status of "block" may be different. For example, in WebMoney you will simply receive a letter with the activation code to your e-mail or mobile phone. And in Liberty Reserve such tricks may cause a loss of the money forever. Similar problems can happen with PayPal. There are no reports on the Internet about any problems with account blocking due to the change of IP addresses in Perfect Money payment system.

To avoid account blocking due to this reason try to access your account under one and the same IP address.

As for WebMoney here also should be noted that Keeper Classic cannot be used in virtual machine WMWare.

Here everything is simple - try to receive payments only from the people with proven accounts. The same rule should be followed when sending funds to other accounts - they also should cause no suspicion of administration. In other words, if your contractor was involved in money laundering schemes or in electronic money scam he/she can cause blocking of your account by simply paying for a banner to your account. Do not accept payments from suspicious people, do not send money to unknown accounts, and then such problem as account blocking will never touch you.

This reason may be relevant for everyone making business online. Any time your competitor can send a letter to the administration of the payment system with a bunch of lies and forged documents, which indicates that your account should be blocked until all the circumstances are clarified. Most often this happens in payment systems WebMoney and PayPal.

Remember that when you log in the account payment system, you share a lot of personal information with the administration. If the payment system has learned to systemize information by means of various programs your account may be blocked due to its suspiciousness. So, for example, if a payment system sees that someone regularly registers accounts under your IP address, makes transfer and then immediately empties the account by sending money to other accounts, then the payment system may have some questions to you. In addition to the IP address there are a lot of other things and the most common of them are postal addresses, browser language, and etc. Be careful and don’t be carried away by creating transit accounts.
