PAYPAL asking for SS#, need to add funds
 

Hi,
I wanted to add some funds to my stealth PP account but as soon as I made the attempt they want me to verify.
Is there another way to do this?

Re: PAYPAL asking for SS#, need to add funds
 

Yes, sell stuff and collect the money into the Paypal. Are you trying to buy something?

Re: PAYPAL asking for SS#, need to add funds
 

yes, so I need to fund the account

Re: PAYPAL asking for SS#, need to add funds
 

How old is the account?

Explain how you made it, please

Re: PAYPAL asking for SS#, need to add funds
 

Fund the account with VCC - verify the account with a bank account

Re: PAYPAL asking for SS#, need to add funds
 

you can buy paypal cards at a local store like cvs and add credit to your paypal account.

Account is about 6 weeks old. Opend with netspend MC , have a bank account attached.

Re: PAYPAL asking for SS#, need to add funds
 

I believe that requires an SSN from what I've seen.

Re: PAYPAL asking for SS#, need to add funds
 

Were you given the option of paying with the Netspend MC? (@OP)

Re: PAYPAL asking for SS#, need to add funds
 

No netspend option given

Anytime you try to add funds to your paypal account by getting any of the many cards at different stores, or from a bank account, you need to enter your SS#

This way your money is always tracked to prevent Money Laundering or illegal funding to terrorist Groups , etc...

You don't need to add funds to use paypal to shop or pay someone. Just add a card or bank account and you're good to go. In fact, I don't see any point of adding money to my paypal account.

Agree with hodges - don't need to have your own money sitting in PP account

How about buying eBay gift cards and adding those on eBay while checking out?

Will this option also require him to input SSN? I don't think so. I have a 3 year old account that I run this way and it doesn't have EIN/SSN, it is however confirmed/verified with bank account and vcc

I thought everyone would know this by now, I was wrong.

Re: PAYPAL asking for SS#, need to add funds
 

Using eb gift cards would not require SSN on eB itself

Re: PAYPAL asking for SS#, need to add funds
 

If the bank account has mismatched names and you try to add funds to PayPal from the bank account they will see and immediately limit the account.

Re: PAYPAL asking for SS#, need to add funds
 

Is it possible to have PayPal account and no SS provided to PP?

Re: PAYPAL asking for SS#, need to add funds
 

yes it sure is.

Re: PAYPAL asking for SS#, need to add funds
 

Calm down....you act like someone contradicted you on this....If it works for adding funds to Paypal or Ebay then so be it....

But they have to send you and IRS a form to pay taxes ?

If you accept Skrill only will you be hit with tax too?
