whats the point with a stealth account if..

[arsgunner77]

sooner or later paypal is going to shut you down with the ss# request..whether you sell legit or vero items,its going to happen within the first 6 months if not sooner

[lakeman]

That's not true at all, if you follow the stealth guide you can keep an account going a lot longer then 6 months. I have heard of stealth accounts over 2 years old.

[Here We Go Again]

My main Stealth eBay/Paypal account has been running for over 2 years and as a Powerseller for all but 6 months of that.
It ALL depends on how well you set up the account.

What's the point of a defeatist mindset? ffs, it is possible to have stealth accounts IN THE USA that use paypal and are successful.
Start thinking outside the square.

[bluemoon999]

ssn request is not the dead end.

[aspkin]

It's all on how you create your account that can make or break you.

If you're in the US you have to think a little more carefully about things then if you were somewhere else.

If they ask for s.s., tell them to to give u other options. They did for me.

So far 1 year and 3 months on my Stealth Account and No-one has asked for anything.

Oh wait...eBay asked if I wanted to be a Power Seller.

[OfficialGenius]

Hmmm...It depends on the items you're selling too. I only sell high-end stuff.
Someone told me to start off selling slow then working your way up. Its best to have about 3 or 4 paypals then collect 400-500 on one then 400-500 on another and rotate so its not comeing in all on one paypal

Got any more valuable tips!?

not unless you enroll more than 10k into the account...they said for me that they needed to do a background check to make sure i am the right owner because i enrolled 10k...i was able to lift it twice by just submitting a copy of it, and the guy who was reviewing my account dident check to see if it was valid (belonging to the name) i knew because it was like a 2 minute call..it felt like a miracle for me...i was stunned saying to myself, really that was it??... other than that its very tough...my latest suspension was because they called my supplier...and confirmed that the receipt is bogus...wow was i unprepared for that...there should be a thread letting people know that paypal started calling suppliers so be more creative...

I hate how paypal trys to run your business. Like it's any of their damn business. They are just a website to recieve and send money. I wish they would just butt the hell out.
