The best way is to create a PayPal account using the information of someone you know. It could be your mom, dad, brother, sister, etc. This way if you need docs you have them, if you need a SSN, you got that too.
As long as you're not selling VeRO items you're safe. And as long as you take things SLOW you'll be fine.
Another option is yes create a stealth PayPal account, that's verified and confirmed. The only problem with this is if you need docs, you'll need to come up with them yourself. Details in the faxing and documents forum about this. There are several limitations to this, but it does work as long as you're not selling too much and you spread you sales over several accounts.
Another option is going the merchant account route. The easy way to do this is to use a pre 11/07 account as you do not need to fax any docs in to use a merchant account. Last I heard they're still accepting merchant invoices, I haven't heard of anything contrary to that yet.
There are a couple other methods, but these are the most popular. |
