do paypal link family members together also
 

let say i have my brother who lives in the same building as me
will they link our accounts and get us suspended.
please advise
thank you

Yeah because of having the same address.

Yes, if you both have the same address they will link you. If either one of you gets suspended, the other one will also be suspended shortly after.

Just my two cents here. I am dealing with a similar situation. I got linked to my brothers bad acct. cause we live on the same street, have similar addresses, same last names, same IP address range, and very similar phone numbers. My acct. was 4 years old w/ 400+ fb's @ 99.9% with excellent DSR. He owes PP like $400 in fees he didn't pay. I went in to list a few items and got linked to his acct. After beggin and pleading and giving PP and feebay all the info the asked for, they still will not release my accts. due to "keeping feebay a safe community for everyone" and "suspicious activity" due to the above mentioned info that was used to link our accts. I did the same thing everyone else did, I bought the e-book 3 weeks ago, got on the forums and read until my almost exploded and now have 3 successful stealth accts. up now with alll of the great help from everyone here. Thanks to all who have helped thus far. As I said, I am in NO way an expert but, I am now armed with knowledge I did not have before.

thanks for the info
I need to get myself a few stealth accounts also

I'm not so sure about this because I've had a couple ebay and paypal accounts go bad in my real name with my real address. My brother lives in the same house and he is able to use both Ebay and Paypal fine. My accounts went down over half a year ago now.

In my own experience at some time either sooner or later you WILL be linked in some way. I am convinced that the folks at PP sit and wait for some type of minute glitch and get you just as you think things are going great. Trust what the veterans say, they have knowledge that will only help you do things the right way.

Too late to adjust address a bit?
 

Is it too late to adjust my brother address a bit, like using the letter "B" as an apt ? Or would that draw suspicion? We have deleted all flash cookies!

Too late. The info is there on paypal's records. Looks changed at your end but the old info is with paypal

Thanks for the info. First Paypal account has not been suspended, as of yet !

paypals often arent suspended as such, but if you try and use them at a later time you get limited...although I still have paypals that are linked to suspended ebays, still up and running, but I dont use them often
