Need Help with eBay or PayPal - Ask here so I can help you!!!

I would like to start up a stealth ebay/paypal account. My concern lays with the bank account. I could open a new one, or use a friend or families. My question is: how stealth would this be if someone tried to file suit for copyright or something. Are these companies (ebay, paypal) in bed with the riaa and mpaa? I wouldn't want the account to get traced back to my friend and them get in trouble.
Also, You mentioned mismatched names. Does this mean I could open bank accounts from different, or the same, banks under say, John Smith and Johnathan Smith?
Thank you!!

This is a great question! Yes using stealth would be the best to fight against copyright things. Just because cause your stealth doesnt mean your account who go down! Yes bigger bank branches allow mistmatch names. But eBay and PayPal doesn't know about the names on your bank, youll be good!
 
Hi! I'm new here. I got screwed by eBay & now owe paypal 4k. I got scammed so I won't pay it. I have a stealth account with fake everything. Will paypal go after the bank account to find out my real identity or they can't do it? I heard they can't but just wanted any feedbacks. Thanks!

4k?? Wow that's a lot of money. No they can't go after you if the account is stealth, however I would close that bank account down just in case they attempt to draw money out! Best of luck!
 
Yes, I was scammed then I went to war with a big competitor who had a lot of stealth accounts. He wanted to eliminate his competition so he purchased many expensive items from me. He turned around and said I gave an empty box. I provided Paypal with the track number and everything but they denied me even when I told them that the buyer is selling the same item as me. He was a competitor trying to push me out the way and he won. Not only did he get to eliminate my account but he got my merchandise for free and gets his money back. That is why I wont pay Paypal the 4k.

Thank you for editing your post! lol. Yes there are ways to avoid getting eliminated by your competition. All those details will be in my next eBook.
 
I tried a new stealth account but it got blocked within days of opening,i managed to get paypal verified but its no good now as the ebay account is blocked got a stupid MC142 message saying fax in your life history more or less ,I went wrong somewhere ,used fake id generator
 
So its a known fact that Paypal cant track me from my bank account even though all my other information is stealth? Can you explain to me why not? Is it against the law for Paypal because they are not considered a bank even though they act like it?
 
Very informative! thanks so much!
Here is another question/situation:
Paypal account is setup with a llc with tax and account#'s, but the the user of the account is an alias. Would paypal be likely to verify the users ss#? or would the account #'s suffice for verification?

Also, to reiterate my earlier question that NGALO also hit on: Do you know for certain that paypal can't touch/see/trace this bank account info? No reason to doubt you as you have an impressive amount of knowledge about this stuff! Just curious if it is mandated by law or what. Thanks again
 
Hi mate

i saw this thread and thought id ask for some help / advice

im a new seller on ebay, i have 53 feedback score

how can i get my items listed in best match?

none of my items seem to be showing up when searching

my account is about 1 month old

i have sold 3 items and purchased alot of 1p items to raise my feedback

Thanks for any advice
 
I am looking to go legit but my current bank account can't be added onto my paypal due to receiving a sum of money from another person last time (his account was limited). So I am considering opening up an online bank account to start my small online business. Do you have any suggestions as to which online bank would be best for me? I heard that Paypal is pretty etchy about online banks thus why I am hesitant in the first place to go with an online bank. Though I would not prefer it any other way.

Paypal only question----
Paypal is doing something new. They are asking for confirmation of your location via a phone call. Once you give them your phone number they check the public database to confirm your actual "location". They want a landline to be used to check the public database but of course with stealth you cannot do this.
No prepaid will work including tracfone or any others such as google voice etc because it wont show up in public database to confirm your "location".

What is your solution to this question?

This has nothing to do with ebay. It is a paypal only issue.

So what are you using to confirm your "location" with paypal?

Maybe you are not aware of this new situation that paypal is requiring now.

Remember, this has nothing to do with ebay, it is a paypal only issue.

What's going on Nate009! I am actually going to talk about that in my next "Success Story" Thread. But I'll tell you this. eBay has different calculations for everything that they do. No one know's exactly, but when I started to sell I was just like you with wanting to become in "Best Match". What I kept seeing were these Top Rated sellers, and Power Sellers in first, and I wondered if that was the reason. While they do have a type of "seniority", and Most of the time they were on the front page (the deserved it though, being a Top Rated Seller, I know I do), there are a lot that do make it in Best Match, and don't have a lot of statues. It is because they follow the same principles that will soon hopefully make them, a Top Rated Seller. They usually have Great Feedback with 100%, and 5.0 all down the board. Also they have a wonderful Return Policy! There account is usually older then 3 months when it comes to selling as well! (Like I said there are some that don't, it just depends on the niche!! I hope that helps you out!!! :)

To answer your question, it really depends on your location! When someone want's to go "legit" (hopefully everyone does) I always give them the advice to open a brand new bank account (not online). Why do you want to deal with an online bank only if this is legit? Odd... Attach that to a Brand New PayPal account. Also to make it more professional, add your business name on your PayPal account. You can also open an LLC, and use the EIN, and make everything official!! Hope that helps you out! Let me know if you need anymore help with anything!

Hello mate would you be able to help me I posted a question think you might of missed it thanks in advance

hmm. This is a really good question, and I apologize that I missed it! To answer your question about PayPal, you have to know how PayPal works. PayPal put's a 21 day hold on the money or 3 days until your buyer has the item. Of course that is if you provide tracking for them. After 3-4 months of selling on a account, and getting good feedback, they will take that hold off. However even if there was no hold on the money, I wouldn't be moving money in, and out of the account that fast. That doesn't look safe in PayPal's eyes, and your's too, if you think like PayPal that is. So my best advise (and I think best overall) is to have some type of start up money. It doesn't have to be a lot. It can be as low as $10 really! Best of luck, and I hope that helps!
 
eBayStealths: I have a question for you! I have items that can not be sold in the US but CAN be sold outside the US. I heard a European account or a UK account will be best suited for what I am trying to sell. Question I have is, how can I open an account outside the US to sell these items? OR can I Just sell the items on my stealth account that is already passed the 90 days 21 payment hold and has 5.0 DSR's the whole way with 100% feedback and not one open case? Please be akin to possibility that my PERFECT ebay account is up in the air here. I htink it is a smart idea to open an account in another country but will the IP not allow me to do that? I am so confused as to where to begin on trying to sell these items as a UK , Europena, Indian, Mexican seller....wherever really just as long as its not the United States!!! Please advise.. thanks!
 
to DougG79 this is possible with stealths i stayed at a htel once and ask the concierge to give me their landline number. PAypal called and gave the front desk a 4 digit pin and I input it in the account whilst at the hotel on their lobby computer lol. The account now has the hotel landline number and its VERiFIED!
 
ebaystealths. what can I do with my paypal if my country don't allows to receive money, just to send.

Thanks for answering the question the op could not. This would not work with multiple paypals as paypal is cracking down on accounts that withdraw or send lots of money through and require a land line to do it.

OP keeps telling me to use a tracfone and that will not work with paypal but he must not know that.

Heck of an idea but I would have to rent a room 15 times to get this to work as I have 15 stealth accounts.

Props to you for being creative.
