Socks , proxies or vpn for PP
 

Hi everyone, I am new here and I would just like to know based on your own experiences using PP with either socks, proxy or vpn. which is the best for you? I am interested in trying to get one of these for my PP account. Please reply thanks

yes they all work, it's a matter of using a not abused/overused IP addressess/providers.

I would suggest keeping it simple, I wouldn't recommend using using something that you don't have a lot of knowledge on. There are plenty of methods that are simple to use and don't require a lot of knowledge such as VPN, Mifi, Dongles, Dialup.

Not asking for anyone to market a provider here but which can you suggest? if promoting names is prohibited on this forum, perhaps you can PM me. Thanks

24vc is a good VPN Provider.

I'm personally getting a custom to tethering and mac filtering.

Whatever you use just be sure to log every single IP you use so you know what IP's have been used with what accounts.

Just don't use Tor

Hope this doesn't sound silly but what does this mean and would it help my PP accounts last longer?

Suffice to say it's irrelevant. No need to concern yourself.

once you get smart you can make your own proxies.

my favorite stealth method is having a folder full of portable fireboxes (30 total) that can all be opened at the same time if I want.

Each browser has a private proxy that I created from a cheap ubuntu VPS. Takes about a minute to set one up after deployment.

cheaper than VPN services, and impossible to have accidents- browsers will ONLY connect through the proxy and will refuse any other traffic.

haven't linked accounts in years

I tried making PayPal accounts via proxies and VPN. Such accounts even after full verification (with perfectly valid details) wouldn't allow doing some transactions, even small ones like $20. While if you make an account from a residential IP and only then access it via proxy/vpn, it works just fine.

Wish you could break this down a little bit more. It sounds interesting

Re: Socks , proxies or vpn for PP
 

I'd also like to hear more about this as it sounds very efficient.

I currently use 24vc IP's and they are quite expensive but guaranteed fresh.

this should give some clarity

Set Up Tinyproxy in Ubuntu · Justin McCandless


I set only a couple settings after install

1) I allow my vpn IP for when I'm out of town, and I allow my normal ip range
in my case, at home, I use verizon that has consistent IPs in the 70.209.xxx.xxx range

so i do:

allow (my vpn IP)
allow 70.209.0.0/12

making sure to remove the # hash before the allow to activate it

2) I disable headers by taking the # off before #disableheader

headers tell any website you're using a proxy. I don't want that. its technically illegal but IDGAF


I also dont change the default port of 8888 either so install is quick and simple.
After I set a cron job to restart the proxy ever so often, I'm done.


good luck
