Is this a function though the PayPal APP?

It is an app based function, not sure about other OS/Phones, but I know Android + Samsung Galaxy S5/S6 allow for it.

From stealth perspective, you should not be using the ebay or paypal app on phones to avoid ip linking - if your using multiple stealth accounts.

I would avoid using the APP altogether

Also if you were to get banned now, just hope paypal dont link you based on biometrics now - if so, you may as well chop your fingers off :D

New accounts using the same fingerprint may not link you now, but im sure they will impose it in the near future.

No way I would give PayPal my fingerprints...

Seems like a bad idea.

You're playing fire - Umair.

If I were in your position, I would seize using this account, request paypal to close account, and "HOPE" they delete your biometric data. But never go down this route again!
