since its under another name if i dont take care of this paypal and ebay will close my account. i mean how can they trace under different name and address

I don’t know if they do But if you transferred money into a bank or another Paypal that is traceable.

Name on the 1099 is irrelevant. Only your EIN and the $ amounts matter on the 1099.

You use the 1099 as a tool to do your taxes. Take the total amount of $ received from your 1099, subtract all of your expenses, report your profits via your personal tax form, and send a check to the US Treasury.

It sounds like you may have bit off more than you can chew. You should have paper records of all your EIN/LLC paperwork. You are the payee so that's your EIN.

phaz0rz is highly competent, but if you don't understand what's going on here, and it doesn't sound as if you do, you need to go to a tax professional.
