Why do people need stealth Paypal accounts?

[Jacob Haney]

At first, something is fishy and must be avoided at all cost but hearing some other opinion I guess it is harmless and nothing to worry.

I personally believe that this is typically a strategy used for people who are looking to scam people for the most part. I understand that Paypal is a pain in the ass and some people have gotten a raw deal and may need something like this in order to earn a living, however, most people are looking to buy an account, convince someone to send them money to it for whatever purpose, take the money and profit and run and buy another stealth paypal account. If your above board it is way easier and smarter to just create a proper business account and do honest business with people.

No it's not typically used to scam people - there are many reasons a person would be using a stealth PayPal account, such as their home country not being allowed by PayPal, or they previously got banned, this that. PayPal does like to ban people for shitty reasons.

If it were mostly used to scam people, I really doubt BHW would allow stealth PayPal's to be sold here on BHW.

only time i've ever used a stealth was when selling Bitcoin for Paypal at a 15% rate in my favor. And this is because selling bitcoin for paypal is extremely high risk payments which you can encounter a lot of chargebacks for and paypal will always give you the loss as the seller, so to stop myself getting screwed in case that happens I used a stealth.

So that's another reason to use stealth's, selling digital items which paypal doesn't cover under selling protection.

I have never seen anyone who uses fake paypal accounts handling over 50k revenue monthly . If you have a different experience , please share it with us .

What you would do is just buy 25 stealth paypals with 25 proxies and receive 2k on each??

I mean, thats way to go, and you funnel some of them to a few of your other Paypals where you can withdraw money and that could fix the problem?

Work arround but it works

Exactly, lots of people use them for shopify too. They want an aged Paypal and want funds fast, so they get a stealth Paypal for that.

I had a friend that had to use another friends Paypal accoutn that was seasoned like 3 years just because his own was holding so much money.

So stealth Paypal are the answer because of that reason too
