I just made a new business account on 2/26/2014 and PayPal asked me for a Social Security number to match the info and name I put on the account. Which I can't cause I use stealth info. When they started this?

Bear with me, please.
What was the specific request?
Do you have a screen shot? I ask because another user spoke in the similar terms. But acutally there were options.
Hopefully this may be the same for you.  |

All you have to do is click the PayPal button and go back to the home page. This should do it. Also, before you make a PayPal account, switch it to Classic PayPal rather than the new one because the new one will ask for what you provided a picture of or the last four of ssn.

No I am not using that account. Also question do you guys think that PayPal will require SSN and Date Of Birth in the future?
