First of all, how would LL even know it's not a stolen DL?
And, if as Griffin, on page 1 here says, I will lose all my inventory, then what is the point of having a reactivation at all?
And as far as Paypal, it used to be a bank with it's own credit card, etc., as to whether it is still a bank, I'm not sure. However, Paypal has a way of making sure it is you by depositing a small amount of change in your account which is added to your bank statement, and then you activate with that small amount of change (say .32 cents for example) plus other security measure that Paypal employs.
However, what's the point of having a reactivation if there is nothing to reactive as stated by Griffin on Page 1, which I did not see when I deactivated. When I deactivated, there was no such warning. It said, it may be difficult to reactivate, but not that all items would be eliminated. As to why I deactivated, that's neither here nor there at this point in time. It was an illness, not necessary to talk about.
