Ebay/Paypal and other large corporations have super advanced phone systems, so don't get too comfortable. A few months ago I had to spoof a number to call in to Paypal a few times. It worked fine for 2 calls, but by the time I called a third time their systems were able to detect that I was spoofing my number. After that, I wouldn't even get an answer. The phone would just hang up as soon as it was answered, so I gave up on calling in on that account.
I doubt a skype call would show up as "unknown number" on their telecom system. But of course, I have no way of knowing one way or the other. So in my opinion, your only option is experimentation!
