how do you buy money orders with Paypal Debit Card?
 

Recently I've noticed people talking a lot about purchasing money orders as a way to withdraw money from their paypal account. How are you guys doing this, assuming you have ⊗⊗⊗⊗ names on the paypal accounts?

I would think that if you go to a post office or check cashing place and ask them for a $1000 money order on a credit card that they would ID you.

I don't understand this practice. Wouldn't it be easier just to pin out the money from an atm machine?

Either way, both work.

I thought the reasoning behind buying money orders is that you have up to a $3000 limit for purchases per day per card, instead of hitting the atm and only getting 400.

Still, I don't who would be willing to sell you a money order without ID.

I've never had to show my ID to buy a Money Order..

Oh I see. Well that's different. I guess buying a money order could work well if you're desperate to get more than 400 out of paypal.

So you can buy a $1000+ purchase with a credit card (paypal debit card) and not show ID? I've never been able to make a $1000 credit card purchase without ID.

paypal debit card purchase is the same as using bank atm.

you need PIN code, so they don't need ID

But you can't get a debit card from paypal if you use ⊗⊗⊗⊗ info cuz they ask for SS# correct?
