I registered a long time ago to stripe with a fake usa address and a fake TIN. Because my country isn't supported...
I made almost 1k usd in sales without a single problem.
I stopped my shopify store more than a year ago.
Now I restarted my store and I got a sale,and I also got this email from stripe: "We're reaching out to let you know that the Taxpayer Identification Number (TIN) and name provided for ************ do not match Internal Revenue Service (IRS) records. Unfortunately, if your name and TIN aren't updated by December 17, 2018, we may be required to pause your payouts. "

Now what can I do...?How can I get a TIN asap?
 
There is a service to get an ein number?
I heard in past something like that...
I think there is a phone interview for foreign citizens and I can't do that...
 
register an LLC. You can trick stripe in the short term. you can't fool in the long run.

this is a process of automatic structures. If you contact the support team, they will ask you to provide proof of your identity.
 
If that doesn't work in the longer run, look for another merchant payments gateway that will support your end-user country.

There's some great threads I've read with lists of accounts for sale, and other payment facilitators.

I'd also like to take a crack at it, if you have the time.
