Paypal Can See Deposit ID. Screwed or No?
 

Okay, when paypal makes the micro deposits into your account. You are able to see Paypal ID:XXXXXX on your banks description when they reverse or retrieve the micro deposits the only info they can see is the name of the owner.

Assuming that there is no real way to get around getting a Stealth bank account and you use your real information for said account, what is the probability of Paypal running the name of the owner and cross referencing it to see if there are any burned PP in that name? Is it a high chance or am I just paranoid?

I don't believe that PayPal can see the name on the bank account at all from my experience. I see your logic and you would think that PayPal would see your name and link your accounts but this is not the case. As long as the bank account number is different from your other accounts then it cannot be linked by that.
