Recommended to avoid ever doing that to prevent paypal from seeing info paypal should NOT be seeing. |

If you sub in the name the paypal account is set up with on that debit card...do they actually ever see the name on the debit card...or do they just go off the card number?

They will only see the info YOU provide them - not the name - keep the stealth name on the account - a basic stealth question you have asked.

AVS matches the NUMBERS in the address:
Stealth User 1234 Main Road #333
Anytown, USA 54321
So, you want to use a VCC, or use a gift card where the address can be registered.

I will say however, this is not an anonymous as a vcc or gift card.

Any Vanilla Visa Gift Card will work. All you have to do is register the Zipcode of your Stealth and off you go.

You and I do not sync well....but thanks for the help......The answer to my question would have been something like this:....By Vanilla Visa...I mean, any Visa Gift card...OR:...NO, Vanilla Visa is a specific "brand" of Visa and that's the specific one you need.....but like I said, thanks anyway.
