PayPal Account For Buying
 

I've heard that it's sometimes ok to have an eBay account just for buying and paying with PayPal. My sisters both have accounts they use just for buying, all under real info that's been suspended but their accounts are fine (touch wood).

Could you have a PayPal account just for buying from sites other - not eBay - and use real info and fund it with real bank account/debit card/vcc?
I'll give it a try soon. I just wondered if they suspend based on linked name/address. Although if that were the case, my sisters wouldn't have their accounts working :/

I'm struggling to understand why you would want to give your real information to Paypal.

That's like investing in a Ponzi scheme believing that you are the one who will not get ripped

I just needed a real account to make payments, would be easier if I could use real info without having to explain to the company I'm buying from that they'd need to ship to a different address.

Then use an address other than your real one that you have access to.

I'm afraid I don't have any that aren't banned. Before I found the Stealth guide, I exhausted them all. Not that there were many anyway, only 3, but all now banned...

There are other options. PO box, virtual mailbox etc.

How do you think other people do it when they run out of address options?
