My account is limited and my sister's account too
 

Hello
I have a PP account, it is from Egypt and for the past years we couldn't receive money on Egyptian PP accounts, So I used my sister's PP account which is USA account and fully legit and SSN verified..
Last week I made a mistake and I created a new PP account with same info of my Egyptian one, and yes I got limited on both accounts, The thing is they also limited my sister's account, I don't know why they linked them as we are totally two different persons..
I called the Egyptian PP support and it has dead end, they blocked me for multiple users and I accepts this..
but what can my sister do, I used her account for getting paid for some services and I was logging to it from here own computer via teamviewer, the only mistake we did is I added to here account another email to use it on my invoices and after I got the payment I removed this email and used it on my Egyptian account, I know this is stupid move but I need advice what can she tells the PP support to get her account back if possible,
Can she claims that I used her account without her permission?
will PP agents believe this?
thanks

Probably won't end well. You just messed up your sister's account pretty badly.

The best thing you could do for her would be to tell her to clear her cookies, including flash cookies, and make a new account with all new info, including an alternative address, different CC's and Bank Account #'s.

Hopefully she didn't put her SSN into her old PayPal.

I don't see PayPal reinstating her account if she tells them you used it without her permission. They will figure if it happened once, it can happen again.

I wish I had an easy answer for you, but I don't the best I can suggest is for her to call PayPal and play dumb, like she didn't do anything wrong and she has no idea why her account was suspended.

This is the reason we always say to never involve relatives or friends with your eBay/PayPal/Amazon dealings. If anything gores wrong, you could have trouble.

The good news is, if PayPal won't budge, your sister can always get a stealth account.

thanks all for reply,
she will call them and play dumb as it is the last resort, hope PP agent be friendly and believe that thing..

Big news, after the phone call with PP agent, today she got mail that the account is fully restored and the re-activated the PP debit mastercard..
that was unexpected actually :D
