They screwed over Something Awful as well, due to a fundraiser for the victims of hurricane Katrina: https://www.somethingawful.com/news/paypal-fiasco-summary/

They simply froze the donated funds and kept them in limbo while forcing the operater of SA to jump through ridiculous hoops in order to unfreeze the money.

Don't use Paypal for any sort of fundraiser. Ideally never use Paypal for anything, ever.
