Ebay asking me to link my PayPal account for verification. What to do?
Hey Guys
First of all, thank you to all of you for sharing your experiences with eBay. I followed all the guidelines on here and finally opened a new account on ebay. It looked like it was working well. The account I used on ebay was a year old account that I had opened in the past and never used before. I just changed the username and purchased a simon gift account under the ⊗⊗⊗⊗ name I used on ebay. In order to receive payments through PayPal, I entered my PayPal email address but did not link ebay and paypal. I just used to credit card option to make my payments but I did not fill up the bank account information. The first day, I listed 5 items and right now there is already one person bidding on one of the items I listed. However, the second day, I was trying to add some more items. I listed one more item and when I was adding the second item, I got this message from ebay:
You can not submit your listing due to the following problems
Attention Seller:

2) If you already have a verified PayPal account, and are still receiving this message, you need to link it to your eBay account.

Ebay is basically asking me to link my paypal account to my ebay account for verification purposes. I read all the messages on this forum but never seen any message regarding this issue. What do you guys think I should do at this point? Open a new ebay account and forget about this one?
I got one more question: If I open multiple accounts (say 5-6 accounts on ebay with different names and addresses, different paypal emails but one paypal account and different IPs), and buy 5-6 different simon gift accounts to make my ebay payments, can I use the same paypal account under different emails for all the auctions?
I will greatly appreciate any response regarding these issues.
