Re: PayPal wants my SSN
googlelovesme,
I have question about your analysis. I am only looking to have one alternate account after my original was suspended. I'm not looking to run multiple stealth accounts. Therefore, I made my new accounts with my real name. I had previously given PP my SSN for my old account, so that is why I was hoping to use an EIN if they request my personal info. It seems that it would be okay if they get my name, as they already have my name and haven't linked me. However, if PP can view my SSN, as the entity that the sole-proprietor EIN belongs to, then they would certainly link me to my old accounts.
So, I understand that the LLC is ideal as it is an entity separate from myself, which would have never been banned from Paypal as the entity which is myself has. That being said, it seems from my reading that one's name is pretty low on the list of things that get you linked.
Any thoughts?
