A VCC - virtual credit card - is used to CONFIRM the paypal....and can be used to pay ebay fees in advance of the paypal "dip" for fee schedule.

Quite a few vcc exist - I use the service called Entropay on the regular. You register for the service with your REAL info (they don't share it with paypal or ebay) but you can make VCC cards that you put into paypal under the stealth name and address. (Entropay is an example).

Forum sellers here also sell VCC for confirmation purposes.

Confirming the paypal with a credit card (gift or vcc) AND verifying it with a bank account helps for security and fund limits (receiving, sending)

I see ,,so if they dont share your real house details ect and name ,,,,,,,,,why do some people want to put in there made up name and address .....is this in case in the future Paypal want to see proof of address ect ect ? :bird:

Made up name and address for which service? For paypal - that's the way to operate as STEALTH and no link.

For the Entropay, recommendation is always to have that service in real name. For other VCC providers, I'm not certain but it would be smarter to use real name and info in case of verification purposes...

I got a VCC from a very reputable seller here and it did not work. I am waiting to hear back from him, but any international VCC provider that you are aware that could possibly cover Greece also?
