bank account in ebay or paypal
 

In the suspension guide it states place false banking details on your file. But at some stage Ebay or Paypal requests that you verify your bank account and they send 2 small deposits into the account. How do you get around this?.

Only paypal is required for this, not ebay. Paypal does not communicate with eBay if your accounts aren't linked. So providing that info for Paypal is fine.

account name and number
 

Thanks,
Ok when they take the funds from your account, is the account number required and or just the name. What i am trying to say is if you open a new account, but your name is the same, can you alter your name slightly eg and paypal can still take money because the account number is correct?.

paypal only verifies the deposits. You can have the name of john doe suzy brown and still can take your money out

But Moddie and most others agree that whatever BS you give to ebay, your Paypal info has to be real.
Specifically, your SSN must be real, RIGHT?

Am I getting this right?

yes your SSN must be real

But the the Paypal name must match the Paypal SSN, to get verification,.
And some say the EBay name must match the Paypal name.
So what gives?
