Note to sellers: Alarming Paypal incident

I recently received a paypal payment from a customer. Everything looked fine (paypal status: complete) and three days later, paypal placed a hold on the payment stating that the person or the person's bank withheld the money. WTF! Luckily, this was a honest mistake by the customer who had not cancelled an old checking account with paypal and accidentally used that account for the purchase. So I was thinking if that's the case, that means paypal has no idea that the account holder's bank had any money (or even an active account) for three days after the transaction was completed! From now on, I'm going to wait three days on paypal payments before shipping out animals.
