PayPal really don't like VPN... Most companies keeps a list of known VPN IP addresses, and if they spot you connecting through a VPN tunnel, they might think that a fradulent user is trying to hijack your account, while concealing his true IP address. From then, PayPal feels free to limit your account for up to 18 months, asking you for every paper you can think of (bills, ID, bank statement, blood test...).
PayPal is really a horrible company and everyone should avoid dealing with them.
