[aleen]

hi there

thanks in advance

yes it can be done,

there is always risk it will get flagged though, due to address change. Depends also if your paypal was once linked to a banned ebay.

Do you not like your cousin? Business & friends & family do not always mix.
Might be troubles later.
Please think of that angle.

If your paypal was used on a suspended ebay account, it should go NOWHERE ebay again for long term account survival.

Consider other options.

The person who said change the primary email address is incorrect. That trick died in mid 2007. accounts that attempt that get limited and it's permament.
So not recommended.

tell me about the other option mate. is there any way out?

You are in good hands with GB and oompa - lot to learn from them.

My recommendation (and yes it's somewhat generic) is to go fresh and new - build new account, build feedback, understand how the system works for future endeavours.

Buy the stealth guide and read it over and over again

Always good to learn how to make your own accounts.

hi there
i were using my cousin eba id and my sister,s pp but my sister's pp limit is going to end now and she doesnt have any photo id at the moment. actually eba account is on my cousin,s name and he has a very old pp which he is using now. in that account his name is like H T. i bought eBay Stealth and read it properly then i realised that i can use his name and address to make a new paypal account and there will be no IP or cookies issues coz i live in different city his real name is like M H T. can you please confirm that can i use his all details. one thing more i am going to use his another bank account which he never use even for his personal use. his address is also different on his pp. is it ok to make a new paypal account? because i dont want that his paypal business account will be restricted coz of me.
thanks

There you go, just remember to never use family/friends names when creating accounts, even if they give you permission.

The reason I say this Is because If something "bad" happens they will be part of the problem, and I don't think you'd want that, nor would they.
