Is it safe to have 3 paypal accounts on one computer
 

I got 3 ebay accounts, and 3 paypal accounts on my wireless laptop with the air card. Can paypal trace me and my other 3 paypal accounts on my wireless laptop? Is it safe to have multiple paypals on one computer? And I heard that a wireless laptop has a different Ip address everytime I log off.

It's not safe to have any paypal accounts.. IMO


But as long as none of the name or information matches, you log on to them from different ips. Never link them, never send money between the accounts, always clear your cookies (check out firefox). And lastly, if you are logging from the same router to your computer everytime, likely the ip is the same. Google "ip checker" and there are some sites that show you your ip.

You can also try:

Click START

Click RUN

Type, cmd

Then in the dos prompt type : ipconfig/release (this will disconnect and then reconnect your computer to the ip, it will show some stats.

To renew you have to type: ipconfig/renew
More stats will show up and it will show you your new IP, I think both times it does.


DO NOT LOG INTO THESE ACCOUNTS UNTIL YOU HAVE READ THIS WHOLE FORUM THOURGHLY!!

There is a ton of more things to do, but that will give you what you need referring to your IP problems, but no, your ip does not change everytime.

You can also go to a starbucks for one account, the library for another, and then log onto one from home. Just an idea.

so its not safe either to send money from one paypal to another? How can I
send from one paypal to another paypal without gettin caught?

Use a regular invoice from Paypal and send it to yourself..I only send to an account that I have a debit card then goto the ATM right away just to be safe...also yes you can run several accounts on one computer as long as you can switch IP's and clean your computer (Ccleaner) but make sure you don't let your guard down...one mistake and they will get you...

READ ALL, ABOUT IP ON YOUR WIRELESS LAPTOP



You can automate the process.


Create 3 user account on your laptop, besides the one you are using now. Create start up jobs on each one of those accounts. ccleaner can clear coockies each tiem you log in. You can create a .bat file and make it release and renew your IP when you log in.



WARNING
About IP release and renew. You aren't getting a new IP from an ISP, you are using your router or someone else's router. Thus your external IP is always the same. Search google for "my ip" and compare IP addresses before and after your release and renew.

You might have to login into your router and change IP from there.










P.S. Each Windows (Or Linux) account on your computer could be configured to use different proxy server. Think different IP and ISP. Not tracable!

Just ask your ISP if you have dynamic IP address, if so all you need to do is retart router each time.

I think your accounts have been linked....

I have had 3 paypal accounts for 4 years on 1 PC/ISP never any issues.

Qwerty, how did u manage to get all them accounts on one computer without being detected for so long?

If the paypal accounts have no link to ebay, then you can have as many as you
want. The problem occurs only with an ebay/paypal link.

If the paypal account stands alone, no troubles.

Thats exactly what I did, Did not link the accounts at all to ebay. So I hope I should be fine for a while.
