10 PayPal Stealth Accounts Suspended!
 

Hi

I have had great success creating PP stealth accounts in the past.

However, recently every single one of my PP accounts are being limited within days of being created..

I have followed the same steps I used previously (with success) but now every one is being suspended.

Is anyone else finding this? I am using Entropay VCC to verify account. I am purchasing item from ebay for 99 cents to make account look real.

This worked in the past but now...?

why purchase anything?

You need to share your creation method step by step in order to get an answer.
Name, address, DOB, IP method, new users accounts/vmware etc...

stop purchasing cheap items. classic risky behavior

Re: 10 PayPal Stealth Accounts Suspended!
 

I agree with ebayerOG, but obviously something has CHANGED. What is different between when you created your last successful account and when the first unsuccessful one was created? There must be SOMETHING. Either that or eBay has found a pattern of users buying .99 items.

Re: 10 PayPal Stealth Accounts Suspended!
 

buying that item as your mistake .

Re: 10 PayPal Stealth Accounts Suspended!
 

Buying a $0.99 item is definitely NOT your problem. Look deeper.
There are millions of dollar items bought on ebay everyday.

Maybe they are catching on to entropay being used to death. Try another type of giftcard..

Sad day if this happens......

Re: 10 PayPal Stealth Accounts Suspended!
 

I think they are catching on to entropay. Heard a similar stories from other users.

Re: 10 PayPal Stealth Accounts Suspended!
 

I think this is the only logical answer bec the OP specifically mentioned he created dozens of PayPal accounts in the past using the exact same strategy (I.e, purchasing 99 cents item on EBay).

The question is: What do you suggest it is?

The only viable option I see is that PayPal is beginning to ban Entropay.

Is this possible?

Thanks

Do you get limited after purchasing items, or after you make your first few sales?

What VBA are you adding to verify your account with the entropay card?

Re: 10 PayPal Stealth Accounts Suspended!
 

Try using vanillas instead of entropay

Re: 10 PayPal Stealth Accounts Suspended!
 

hmm.. I still don't know the answer but by now it is 20+ stealth accounts have been banned..

Interesting thing is that none of the ebay accounts have been effected only PP..

still looking for answers..

Re: 10 PayPal Stealth Accounts Suspended!
 

I say it's buying cheap items....I almost guarantee it. I'm willing to bet that if the OP made
more accounts and didn't buy something that the accounts will not get limited.

Re: 10 PayPal Stealth Accounts Suspended!
 

And didn't buy anything or something for 99 cents? I am trying with $2.99 now to see result..

Don't forget I created dozens of accounts like this in the past with no issue..

Re: 10 PayPal Stealth Accounts Suspended!
 

Does it happens after you sold something??? Same thing happened to all my account until I changed VCC.

Re: 10 PayPal Stealth Accounts Suspended!
 

So apparently it was the VCC? What did you change to? I'm assuming you used Entropay..

Re: 10 PayPal Stealth Accounts Suspended!
 

Why buy anything?
I dont get it.

Re: 10 PayPal Stealth Accounts Suspended!
 

Because people think that buying feedback will mean anything as a Seller.....

Re: 10 PayPal Stealth Accounts Suspended!
 

It doesnt seem like it is the VCC or Entropay. I have plenty of accounts with both gift cards and entropays. The commonality between the accounts that are getting limited and that are doing just fine is when someone tries to make a purchase with that $1.50-$1.95 balance that was originally refunded from the gift card or entropay.

The accounts where ppl try to buy something before selling anything seem to be the ones that get limited. The limitation comes after making the purchase, but in the resolution center it back dates to the day of creation (or when the card was added). I do not know if it is because it is just a purchase or if it is the cheap items being bought, but it is one of the 2. Best solution is DO NOT buy items on a new paypal account. It is not working.

Now the accounts that I have made for myself personally, I do not buy anything. I wait until the account is at least a week or two old then I list an item. These accounts have both entropay and gift cards on them. I have had no issue. These accounts were created about 1.5 months ago.

SO, just to put it out there again
*entropay nor gift cards seem to be the issue
*making purchases on a new paypal seems to the the issue

This is definitely something that paypal had implemented in the last couple months, so nothing is 100% sure yet.

Re: 10 PayPal Stealth Accounts Suspended!
 

What does the limitation say? We use entropay and never had an issue.

Re: 10 PayPal Stealth Accounts Suspended!
 

You are best to sell items first I have had 10 stealth's all working still and I usually sell1p items to get 10 feed back then sell higher priced items with no problems.
