Is it ok to use a previously used phone # just to verify?
I have been doing stealth accounts for nearly a year now and have been very successful at it. One thing I want to know is regarding phone verification. I found that signing up with a bogus phone # most of the time works. Most of the accounts I use did not require phone verification because I first verified my PayPal account by bank account and confirmed address by credit card, then I linked this PayPal account to the eBay account. Never was asked for a phone #.
Sometimes though, I get hit with a phone verification because it says I'm signing in from a computer not known which is of course bs. When this happens I just get another VoIP #. But this costs money. My question is, I want to know if it is ok to use a previously used number just to verify the account. This # won't be added to the eBay/PayPal account, but only to verify the account. Will eBay save this # in their records and link me? I'm thinking maybe not as I could use a public pay phone # that other people have used to verify their account from the same location. Let me know what you think. Or if I should just pay for # and save me the trouble!
