Re: Can I link my Paypal accounts by similar transactions?
Just to clarify, in the simplest form, PayPal is looking for patterns; repetition, sequence, duplication, or other "linking factors".
You can be sure their fraud detection algorithm is looking for repetition. Again, any type of behavior that could link you with some other account(s). It's common sense that doing the same things over and over again may bring attention to this type of behavior over the longer term, but again, depends on many factors.
What PayPal considers "normal" and "routine" is somewhat of a mystery. Clearly they will consider some type of transactions more risky than others. Fraud detection is ever evolving, esp. with AI and Machine Learning that would also play a role in that.
