You can't refund money out of a frozen account. Paypal could keep the money for six months, or forever. They've been known to do worse. According to one of the anti-paypal websites out there, they've done this to at least 7% of their customers.
I'm very careful in my use of Paypal. They froze my account in 2001 over a $20 transaction... The seller, unbeknownst to me, was involved in some sort of shady deal and got his account frozen. He wanted to refund my $20 and paypal wouldn't let him, so I did a chargeback, then Paypal froze *my* account!
