My shopping spree on ebay was canceled

I recently had my hip replaced so I had been confined to online shopping. I just learned how to go around ebay last week and I finally decided I wanted to buy some stuff online using my Paypal account. I was preparing to pay for stuff on ebay when paypal error code 1010 showed up on the screen. It means that the seller is under probation. Paypal is investigating any unusual events by that user. Regardless of whether it's routine or not, it's advisable to stick with paypal and not pay through something else that you don't know. Some users that are flagged by ebay could be spammers. If you are forced to pay via other means specified on ebay, it's possible that that person is just trying to lure you to use your credit card. Never ever fall into that trap. It's not even advisable to pay using a different paypal email. Inform the seller that you would deal first with the payment terms before starting on the project. Because there was no other way, just cancel first then or should be able to use the ripe ones.
