Lost 3 New Paypal accounts in one week: Limited, What i Do Wrong?

[johncarter]

I been having a hard time keeping a new paypal account lately, maybe things have changed.

I Have new 3 stealth and 3 paypals
First account: About 5 months old: I sold slow, First Month sales 350, 2nd Month 900, 3rd Month 2000 and 4th 1000.. Items average price is 20-25 dollars

2nd account: About 3 Months old: First Month sales 500, 2nd Month 1000, 3rd Month 1000... Items average price is 20-25 dollars

3rd account: About 2 months: Sold about 300 first month and 500 2nd.

Then also sudden this week my 3rd account which sold the least got paypal limited (asking for id, invoice, tracking number). then few days later my First account got limited and few days later my 3rd account also paypal limited. But all ebay account are fine with 100% positive feedback.

My question is I am selling to fast or I am fine? Being that 3 accounts went down during the same seems odd? I am linked? (I am a veteran paypal stealth, my other account i had for years are fine)
Only thing I think could possible link? All three accounts during verification. I selected paypal to do micro-deposits to verify my bank account.
if those two deposits going BACK to PP, does paypal see the name the account holder?

Hard to say what triggered this or if there is a link, need more information.

First off, are you selling the same, or similar item(s) on these three PP accounts?
How are you accessing them?

The bank verification might be one possible link, but many stealthers (including me) don't have problems.

Yes, everything different, ips, phone number, using different window account for each.
Also when paypal limited the 3 accounts all in one week time, They never sent a email, usually they do, which seems odd

If "bank verification might be one possible link", Maybe things have changed with paypal. If I can't do micro-deposits anymore? Will Verify it instantly online (by getting user name work better?) Does paypal see name of bank account owner with "Verify it instantly"??

the fact you have not received any emails and only discovered the limitation upon login to your PP is not that all unusual. In fact, I have experienced this myself any times.

I have long suspected they can see the name when they PULL those amounts back out using the microdeposit verification they see the name on the account.

Wells Fargo once told me that the last "VERIFYBANK" debit (the sum of the two microdeposits) is indeed an "ACH DEBIT", which is the same type of trasnsaction as any other ACH PULL debit.

Now, whether or not they would limit simply because the name didn't match the bank alone is highly subjective. There are may stealthers here, includuing myself that have used the microdeposit method and haven't had any problems.

Are you selling the SAME or SIMILAR items on these PayPal's?

No I am not selling same or similar items.
Yes i used microdeposit for years and haven't ran into any problems, Just lately past 6 months, maybe things have changed. I thought odd... i lost 3 accounts that are 2-5 months old in the same week.
I read this on another topic

You think, Verify it instantly instead of with micro-deposits? would work? Have ever tried verify it instantly? Will they see my name?

I had an account buyer who got something similar. He called in. He did not send any docs in. The PP rep restored his account. I think this is unlikely to work 80% of the time. But at this point you have nothing to lose by simply calling them. But you do have everything to gain.

[nickopedia]

I don't know for certain that the bank account holder's name is revealed when doing the instant verification. I haven't tried it.

Even if the bank account holder didn't match exactly, I don't think that one factor alone would necessarly get you limited. I have always suspected PayPal looks at more than one thing when deciding to place a limit.

As bjammin suggested above, maybe call them about one of the accounts. You have nothing to lose, and might actually learn something from talking to them you haven't thought of.

It's normal for me to be asked for ID, proof of addy, and invoices esp, if my account is under a Year old. I just provide what they asked for, and less than 24hours they restored my accounts. Never failed with that kind of limitation so far. Call them up, or just provide what they need.

@OP, are you moving money between the paypal accounts repeatedly?

No,
I call on one of them, they look over the account, they said i don't have provide invoices or other things on list.
(Originally on the site. they want like 5 things, ID, Proof address, receipt)
On the phone, They just want Photo ID and I would be good to go.
But I don't have that :(

Then it might be time for you to get 'creative'.

selling fraud ****?

As it's already been said PayPal can not see your real Name you used to setup on any Bank account that you're using with PayPal as long as you're transferring funds from PayPal to a Bank account, but they can see your Bank account Name if you transfer funds from Bank to PayPal. Doing either can get your PayPal account limited.
So i do think that it is not something that triggered your accounts. In fact if they're all getting limited in a short time, it is because there is a link between them even if we cannot see it.
PayPal has gotten incredibly good at detecting footprints and locking accounts. Activity, age of account, IP's, cookies. PayPal wins every time they lock up an account.
IMO something went wrong into you're 3rd account that led into a manual scrutiny (not a bot verification), then the person was able to see a link between your accounts, how? only them know ..

So speak to wise people around and get it done - not hard to do...but might involve some costs to the creative people...

Have you ever logged in from a completely different state or out of the country into those accounts? If so and you didn't tell them you are leaving the country, this could trigger it.
