Opening first stealth account

Laurav · #1 03-25-2016

HI
I looking for some input. I will be opening my first stealth account (US) since being kicked off ebay over 18 months ago. I wanted to know which bank is best for the account. I was going to use a cap360 account that I have but have been reading that cap360 can be a problem. Thanks for any input

There are 1,000,000,000 threads on this topic, pretty sure you can find a few but here are a few that work:
Bank of America
Wells Fargo
PNC
Chase

Thanks for the advise. Just want to make sure I cross my t's and dot the i's before I do this for the first time. I am probably just being over cautious. I have my tracfone and able to change the IP with no problem will get a vanilla Visa gift card, have a new address no access family with a SS I can use but don't really want to do that anyway. I will be a small art/craft type of seller so hopefully will stay under the radar.

Any large bank with branches will work fine.

If you choose a smaller bank, especially an Internet only bank, make sure you don't use mismatch names on PayPal. The PayPal account has to be in your name for withdraws to happen without an issue.

I was overly paranoid, but I opened a stealth 2 months after I got suspended. I'm doing great w/ a Wells Fargo and a 7 dollar go phone from Walmart, using the sim @aspkin provided to me. Paypal never even held my money for more than a week after it arrived to the buyer. But I also do same day shipping.

Opening Stealths is like being addicted to crack....once you open 1....you gotta open more!

Welcome, Laurav

I would avoid Wells Fargo.

Stick to Bank of America, Chase.

Good Luck.

I'm using Wells Fargo on two stealth accounts haven't had issues with them, why don't you like them?

I would also like to know why you say the OP should avoid Wells Fargo,as I plan to open a stealth account using a Wells Fargo bank account

Several users have reported problems with Wells Fargo.

They tend to be inflexible
