Will this work

[Spudz]

Looking to set up a stealth paypal account.

The way i was thinking of doing it is buying a smart phone and a sim card and only ever using the phone for pay pal and also only use the mobile data to ensure i never get linked via ip or cookies ect.

Would this work do you think and is it a viable option.

Welcome to the forum - all the best as you master stealth

That's pretty strict but it would work - do NOT use the eb or pp app though

Take it if i use the app it will be able to link the phone. Im only planning on having 1 account per phone just so i know i will never get mixed up or have to worry about linking.

This is fine, you will be good to go: 1 phone+app for each account

Yes that will work fine. Just make sure you have multiple accounts up and running just in case one ever stops working.

thanks for your responses, also if i don't add a bank will that make the account look a bit suspicious to paypal because if i open a few i wont be able to attach a bank account. But i do have a legit paypal in my name verified with bank account.

Not having a bank account does not help secure the pp account...so think about it

Thats fine.

But from your previous post - don't think you can transfer funds to your other PayPal with bank. That will eventually link both accounts.
