[Full-disclosure] PayPal acount removal: bug or feature?

[3APA3A]

Dear Matthew Flaschen,


PayPal is exactly https://www.paypal.com/. No, it's not phishing.

I  found  on  PayPal  support  it's  only  possible to close accounts in
'inactive'  state.  I'm  not  sure  about  the terms under which account
becomes 'inactive'.
