The OP said the email stated a call was necessary to verify the account or something along those lines, so this is just an easy call in have all info ready and all the questions are standard for this:

What are u selling?

Is the item in your possession ?

Is anyone helping with the account?

And so on.....

LOL dude you know what you are talking about that the same thing the rep said

The original and easy MC999 seems to be given out because of all the info in a thousand threads I won't get into but what I just discovered is you will receive this and need to verify the account when :

The account is created and left alone for several weeks.

I usually create my account and list and sell that first item right away and than let the account sit for few weeks before going back

However the last couple days of February I created two stealth accounts and left them dormant until a week ago

I created 2 stealths : 2 sets of eBay / paypal accounts and that was it , never linked them or sold anything

Than a week ago I basically linked the eBay with the corresponding paypal account received the 4 digit code from eBay and listed my first item, and did this with both accounts

And I received the original MC999 on both within an hour after listing, it was strange because I haven't received an MC999 when opening a new account in at least a year , once I learned how to make an account properly I never needed to call in again

So I'm guessing because everything else was in order it was due to the accounts being created and than left dormant

I guess it's always good to set them as sellers right away and sell that first item, the way I left the accounts could of made them look like they were created and than left alone and possibly restarted by a different owner , and that's what triggered the call in. Which was a 2 min easy MC999 luckily
