2nd legit account?
 

I apologize in advance if this has been covered, seems pretty simple but I'm not sure...
I have a legit pp account of 10 years.... and some others of less legitimacy, but not limited. Can I start another "legit" paypal account to avoid any risks to my aged one? Real account/cc #. Different legit address, email, and ip's. I could use a version of my first name, but my last name is unusual. Would name alone link it? Or should I just stick to stealth to keep distance between the two accounts? I don't know if my bank takes mismatches. Thank you.

Open a new bank and go 100% stealth

Thanks. Yeah, worth a try on the mismatched name I suppose. No other real reason not to go all the way stealth.

Stealth is the way to go

Why risk doing this?

Try to avoid mingling new accounts with old working accounts.

Re: 2nd legit account?
 

Linking old accounts to new accounts (even legit) is known to cause issues.

Ebay can 'split' the selling limits. Or, they may suspend your new account mc999 which then runs the risk of getting your main legit account perma banned.

Yes this happened to me before I discovered stealth. Altho I did get a good ebay rep who reinstated me in the end.

So tread carefully

Don't use old info - make multiple stealths and build them up

Re: 2nd legit account?
 

Yeah, stealth is the way.
My reasoning was, since I was using a legit bank#, it would be nice to have an account I can access regularly without changing ip or worrying about them asking for ss#. (i wouldn't use my aged account too often)
But, since I'd need a different address, etc., might as well go all the way.
Stellar advice as always, thanks.

You can get other legit bank accounts going for use with other accounts and operating to avoid SSN request...spreading the risk of limitation
