I've seen some people on this site say they have around 50 stealth accounts. And if having a real bank account to withdraw funds is the only way, they would have 50 bank accounts (25 if its checking/savings).
Some people really do have a lot of bank accounts....
If you spend time looking into it and having a think about it though you will find other ways to indirectly get funds out of PayPal (buying items for example)

I am spending my time looking into this, that's the purpose of this thread. Could I buy gift cards? Buy an item, then return it for cash?
This seems like the easiest route to take. I can send it to a paypal account that has not been linked to ebay, and just send the money as a gift.
Has anybody else been successful with this method?
When my first paypal account was restricted I used a friends paypal account so that all my sales funds went to him. I just changed the paypal address on the listings.
While I didn't have a bank account attached I sent all my paypal funds to him.We did realise this might be risky for him.
This is going back over a year ago though and we did it again about 3 months ago.
If you have a friend with an established paypal and ebay history there should be no bother making a one off payment to them at all

I am a total newbie, and I have absolutely no idea, but just curious instead of "sending" funds Paypal to Paypal to a different account, could he just buy something from himself on eBay? Aside from losing ~10% to eBay fees, would that work without risking linkage? A stealth account would just be another account buying something right? As long as it was a one time thing, that wouldn't be suspicious, would it?
