Gaming Payments Reversed as Fraudulent and Account Frozen

From roughly 9/13/07 through 10/5/07, I sent a number of payments, from $1 to $99, to an online game service named Nodeka, using a prepaid credit card. PayPal's requested details were all identical to those registered for the card. Two times already, every one of my payments has been reversed by PayPal and marked as fraud, which froze my account. For some 5-7 days they said the error was fixed, and lately word came that all the payments were reversed once more and my account would be frozen. Many emails of mine went to cryptic addresses, and a different person answered each time. The website's help section has an Orwellian name, and it resolved nothing for me. The administrator of the game site could not have been kinder, but the PayPal machinery has swallowed yet another innocent customer.
