Default PayPal Called Supplier

So is this a new thing now? Paypal called my supplier...not sure if its because what im selling is high valued or if its random. So just letting you know make sure your supplier contact info isnt totally bogus.

___


Can paypal actually do that? Call a supplier and request they give information about a client. But anyways. When they called they didnt get though because i put the wrong number. So i messed up, usually a put a 1800 that routes back to me, it has a voice mail greeting everything matches up but because i used the same format of an invoice i used before (not with paypal) i forgot to change the 1800 to the new one. Stupid me! I made up some story about how the supplier may have changed their telephone # and i will call them back with the contact info. The extension# will route to my partner however. Now im curious as what questions they will ask the 'supplier' if they do in fact call back. Ill keep you guys posted.

Yep, there have been reports of paypal now calling suppliers. No hard and fact rule yet
but the category of the item appears to count. Be aware and be prepared.

I guess they will only call if the invoice looks perhaps partially generic.

Do they really have the time for this unless it is high end/branded items?

Would not have it any other way.:D
'Verified' means that paypal has accepted your info and says you are OK (0) <--> FB from buyers saying what a pleasure it was to deal with you and use paypal, the more that do this the higher the numbers LOL

Well it depends. Are you selling items that you may not want them to know you got from HK? Then i wouldnt suggest giving them a HK number because they might not remove the limitation because of suspicions about the authenticity. Just give them a functioning number.

Just another update. I made another ebay and paypal account because i wanted too see if they would actually call me again. Both accounts are new and the amount totaled low 4 figures. Of course i got the limitation, supplied tracking and invoices. Just called limitation was removed and they didnt call my supplier. However i found a wholesale company online that you have to pay a yearly membership fee to join and they dont have a phone service and you must contact them through email and you cannot see the actual contents of the site unless you pay a membership fee only a preview. So i made up the invoice and used that companys info with my number so now i even had a website lol. Psh all that work and they didnt even call.

By the way, while i was talking to the guy on the phone he said no prob we will remove the limitation. Then i hung up 2 seconds later got the email that my appeal was denied permanently! I called back immediately and they transferred me again apparently the idiot clicked the wrong button! Luckily he made a note on the account that it should be restored and the lady did it while i was on the phone...phew.

Food for thought....paypal employees work in the USA whos economy is in trouble, rumor has it that paypal employees who are laid off know how much money you are making per your paypal records and take your supplier info and use it for their own ebay selling accounts and those of their family members and friends, be careful of helping former ebay/paypal employees in duplicating your success.

Its likely, but what could you do. Asking for supplier info is a normal thing and if they request it you have to supply it. Most ppl i know dont actually use their real suppliers? Anyone? ...................................... Probably not. Plus if a paypal rep were to ever call "my supplier" off duty or for their personal benefit, they are in a for treat. Bring it on.

That's been known since about 2003.

Basically most sellers would never give out their supplier info except under extortion.

I give them my supplier LOL..... Its another ebay seller! I buy a lot of 10-100 of almost anything cheap. List them all(with my zero feedback) at once so I get flagged, and walla, 1 part of the process complete. Then slip in the "real good stuff"

Knowing how the bots work is the key to everything...........
