eBay Suspended & PayPal Limited Forums - 1 of my stealths went down this morning

I've seen some people on this site say they have around 50 stealth accounts. And if having a real bank account to withdraw funds is the only way, they would have 50 bank accounts (25 if its checking/savings).

You expect me to believe this?

Got to be another way.

Some people really do have a lot of bank accounts....

If you spend time looking into it and having a think about it though you will find other ways to indirectly get funds out of PayPal (buying items for example)

Yes, you can buy a gift card and then sell it.

I personally would open a VirWox account, deposit all the money in there and exchange it for Bitcoin. The easiest way to cashout a dying account.

Has anybody else been successful with this method?

When my first paypal account was restricted I used a friends paypal account so that all my sales funds went to him. I just changed the paypal address on the listings.
While I didn't have a bank account attached I sent all my paypal funds to him.We did realise this might be risky for him.
This is going back over a year ago though and we did it again about 3 months ago.
If you have a friend with an established paypal and ebay history there should be no bother making a one off payment to them at all

Could I use this same method with Coinbase? I already have an account with them so that might be easier.

EDIT: just found out that I signed up for VirWox a while ago. thanks for the info !

I am a total newbie, and I have absolutely no idea, but just curious instead of "sending" funds Paypal to Paypal to a different account, could he just buy something from himself on eBay? Aside from losing ~10% to eBay fees, would that work without risking linkage? A stealth account would just be another account buying something right? As long as it was a one time thing, that wouldn't be suspicious, would it?
