If the age of the account is less than 5 months and non-verified, then the chances of getting limited is very high IMO.

Its about 1 month old and fully verified.

If the paypal is verified by yourself, then a few K doesn't really mean much. However, It would be otherwise since it's a bought account...

I've received a few K at once in my account without problem, but it's my own account...

or split the money 2 or 3 ways with trusted people (give him 2 or 3 pp accounts is what I mean) and then have them transfer it to you

OR if the person is US bound, a bank transfer is easy. if you are not in the US, have someone trusted in the US receive the funds and pay into your pp in smaller installments over a period of time

hope you find a solution to this. cheers!

I am not in the US. Although I like your first solution of having a few people receive the money and then give them to me in small installments. Thanks.

Receiving such huge sums of money on PayPal is quite dangerous, your account being limited also depends on the sender, I've received such huge sums at once from a CPA network on a fake PayPal and I didn't get limited.

Don't use Paypal. You will thank me later.

Take it another way. Find a way to explain to your client because if he is adamant about Paypal, something might be fishy.

make sure you trust them though, you don't want any stories

Goodluck!

I don't understand what the risk is. I accept money in the thousands with paypal and you're worried about $x,xxx? Am I missing something?

Your criticism is appreciated. However it's your word against lots of others. Do you accept money in your personal account?

There are two kinds of paypal users:

Those who have been limited.

Those who will be limited.

Tell them to wire all the funds from their bank via SWIFT to your bank. US banks will tattle to IRS if over 10000.

No there shouldn't be any problem with paypal while receiving funds your accounts will not get limited . I have received upto 4k$ in my paypal in installment on same day . Your account may have problem when the sender files a dispute .,then nothing can be said !!!

Thankyou very much for that valuable input

I'm not really a big fan of PayPal, it really is just to easy for them to charge back. Have you considered a Payoneer card? I've noticed a lot of people are using them these days, although I haven't tried them my self.

You could also try Moneygram. The fees are very high, so I don't know if it will be any good for you.

But DON'T use PayPal.

If i understood you correctly the PayPal is fully verified, so it means that it doesnt have a receiving limit. So because PayPal is tricky the first thing you should know is that if the account is not active a lot ( and by active i mean receiving payments and sending money on a daily or even weekly bases ) than a sudden larger amount transfer ( everything over 300-500$ ) could get your account limited. But if you are using your account on a daily/weekly bases you will have no problem at all at receiving the money. And i recommend getting all the money at once instead of installments.. I am using a Fully Verified Paypal from an unsupported country for transactions with all of my customers and in 2 years i had 1 chargeback, and paypal decided they would pay the buyer instead of me because of my account activity and previous transactions.

So it doesnt matter if you bought the account or not, it matters if the account you are using is active a lot or not.

My account is active with $xxx being withdrawn weekly but the thing is the account is new (about 1-2 month old). Haven't had any problems until now.
