New paypal biz account tainted?

[hak3865]

I've had a personal paypal account for years...don't want to jeopardize that at all.

A month ago, I opened a new biz ebay account and a new biz paypal account. Within a couple weeks was suspended indefinitely on ebay: still don't know why, only bought one item, and listed 3 items.

I know with the stealth method here, I need to have an ebay account and paypal account NOT linked to the banned account. Given

I'm also dabbling in Shopify and maybe some other non-ebay platforms. Would there be an issue using that new biz paypal account I set up and haven't used, other than that first purchase? Or because of the ebay debacle, that would taint this paypal account on ALL platforms?

Theres no way to know whether or not you got your other accounts linked without having more info as to how you went about operating both sets of accounts.

Not concerned about my personal and banned business accounts linked, because they know already, and they told me when I kept on about why that happened that I should sell on my established account. Don't want to risk losing personal ebay account, though, since I don't know what I did. Want to keep that personal.

I was wondering about my business paypal account I set up at the same time as the business ebay account that was suspended indefinitely. I have a personal paypal account also I've had for years, but I was wondering if because the business ebay account was banned, that would affect the paypal account too, so that I would have a problem using it for a new shopify account, or other non-ebay platform?

Likely could be affected due to linking...can never be 100% sure until it happens though...

@slokor @rsot and anyone else:

Still trying to figure this out...

When I opened up a biz paypal account, I used my name as the biz name and for tax id gave them my SSN. (This was prior to ebay indefinite suspension and my joining STEALTH). I gave them my home address and I used a google voicemail number for my business number. This was an older GV number I have had for years. (used this in the setup for ebay business account - maybe why I was kicked off?) This was all the same info I had for my personal paypal account that I've had for YEARS (other than the googlevoice number).

Need to add paypal to Shopify. I think I had read I cannot use a personal paypal account for Shopify. Plus I don't want to jeopardize my personal paypal account at this point - I use it for family stuff frequently. Easiest thing would be to use this new biz paypal account I originally had linked to the suspended indefinitely ebay account. Is this not a good idea? If not, do I need to go stealth here with paypal on Shopify using the methods here, or is that only for when I'm working with Ebay/Amazon?
