Recent Post states that PayPal is holding back his 600,000 Euros to prevent fraud. Meaning that if Notch is scamming money, then PayPal will refund all that money. Very rude thing to do to notch!

My account is still limited. I’ve called them three times, they keep telling me it’s being reviewed. Most recently they told me it’d take up to two more weeks for it to get resolved, and that if they decide something bad’s being going on, they’re going to keep the money.
I read about that.
I heard from many people that 'Paypal is the most secure way to pay'
*glares at said people, and Paypal itself, which I always imagine in my mind as a dog.*
How does PayPal even work, what is the legality behind it? If they are doing this I imagine it isn't anything like a typical bank who are bound by law to give you your money back when you ask for it (unless it's from criminal investigations, but I don't think that is the case here if it's PayPal that plans on keeping the money instead of some type of government).
Is PayPal basically equivalent to opening a bank account with some guy and hoping he actually gives you your money? Cause it sure sounds like it.
It happens, I suppose. I wouldn't think he has anything to worry about since he's legit.
Of course, I don't know much about Paypal and stuff like that. I just figure if he's honest it'll work itself out.
Paypal is like, Oh, durr, you entered your credit card information into our system incorrectly. We are now closing your account due to suspected credit card fraud. Have a nice day! It was a ****ing pain to buy Minecraft. I had to go buy a prepaid card because Paypal wouldn't let me move my credit card info onto another account.
Let's all send paypal an email or some **** backing up Notch. How the **** are they going to justify this when there's at least several thousand and hopefully tens of thousands of people that play the game Notch made saying "No dude it's legit don't be a douche"

Nah, let him handle it by himself. Besides, the automated system will just reply with: Please send us an email using the system on our website. Oh, and your account has been closed. KTHXBAI!
i think its terrible that there holding his own money from him. I have an idea! Drive the people who own paypal into the ocean with torches and pitchforks!
No. We'll dig a 5x5x3 pit outside of their office and fill it with cactus blocks.

Then they'd know exactly what all the fuss is about.

This. EXACTLY. Thousands of emails saying only "No dude it's legit don't be a douche".
"No dude, this **** with Markus? It's legit. Totally. Don't be a douche man."

HEY WOW WOWOWO WOWO!!! IS THAT A MEME NOW?
No. We'll dig a 5x5x3 pit outside of their office and fill it with cactus blocks.
COURSE IT IS, CAN'T YOU TELL? CAPS LOCK IS CRUISE CONTROL FOR COOL!
On-topic- He should add Google checkout as an alternative, not to replace paypal, but simply as an alternative.
WIN!
because people are playing Minecraft and twitting at the same time?
