Ebay/Paypal Manipulation
 

Hi, I am ebay seller since 2005 with stellar performance (820 feedbacks, 100% positive).My Paypal account recently got limited due to SSN request.I understand that you cannot link another Paypal account to your ebay.Someone said on forum that " you can enter the email address of your other paypal account when you are in the process of listing your item..." Is it really possible?Should the names match on those accounts? Thank you. Best, Max

If you do that, you have the probability of linking accounts. It's something that does the rounds here fairly often.

Since the forum aim is to keep users going successfully in stealth, it's not that sound as a practice. There are alternatives :pop2:

(That's no, dont do it then ;))

Thank you so much for fast response.Would you recommend something specific in this situation?I signed up with ccnow. I know you recommend some other merchant account on your site but majority of customers insist on paypal option...

Without a Paypal an eBay account is not nearly as strong. Same thing recently happened to me. I'm in the process of getting approved for a merchant account with Paymate. That's probably the best thing you can do besides starting from scratch. Paymate, Moneybookers, etc...

time to create another account man,ssn requests are pretty much the end of the road

Thanks for all replies.I have another ebay account created in 2005 in another name that I never used.Is there any advantage of using that account than a new one?
