Multiple PlayStation Network accounts got banned.

The UK PlayStation Twitter account is now under „attack” by users whose PSN accounts got banned. It happened due to PayPal. Kotaku was contacted by an internal source, which says that multiple PayPal chargebacks happened in the middle of June, making those accounts go into a negative balance, which was followed up by Sony’s banhammer striking down.

Oh well, it’s a massive mess anyway,” the source claims on Kotaku.

The American PlayStation Twitter channel is also in a similar situation…
