Need Help : Multiple PayPal Accounts !
 

Ok the situation is
I got limited on my first PayPal account for receiving too much money it seems as they stated "unusual change in account activity". After being limited, I simply went to a new bank, opened up a new checking account, and created a new PayPal account with the same personal information as the account that got limited, except the only difference was the new bank account linked and that since I live in a split house, I added "Top Floor" to the address. Surprisingly, I haven't had any issues since and am still using this account to this day. Now why I'm making this thread is because I want to do the same process and possibly open two more bank accounts to use for two new PayPal accounts I will make. Is it that easy that I can just keep making accounts as long as the banks linked are different with a slight change in personal information or did I just get lucky that I didn't get caught yet and shouldn't push my luck? If it was an issue, I would assume I would've been caught by now which is why I'm confused. Hopefully someone can shed some light and help me out.

P.S. This has nothing to do with selling on eBay! This is just strictly for PayPal use only..

Seems you got away, usually registering with the same details (especially the case when you've very recently got suspended) results in limitation.

This doesnt mean you've got away entirely, you'll probably get limited again when you least expect it.

Best you set up accounts using the full stealth protocol going forward. Good Luck :thumb:

This is a tough one because NOBODY can give you a 100% answer.

I've created accounts using the same name from a previous limited account except I changed the address + phone number + email and that account is running strong until this day.

If they see that your transaction activity is similar to your previously limited account they may limit your new one.

I think that you should use the account for a couple of months, slowly build it up and then add your bank account.

If it was up to me I would scrap the account if its brand new and create one with information completely different from the limited account.

Good luck.
