by entry
6 replies
I have 2 paypal accounts (seperate bank cards to both)

and seperate emails.

If i REMOVE email 1 from Paypal ACCount 1, and then add it to the email account to Paypal account 2, would they see this as suspecious activity? and notice that 1 email address has been previously linked to another Paypal account before, and is now being addded to the new one?

or theywill see it as a FREE email addrees (as i removed it from PP account 1)


Dont ask why I need this particular email moved lol.

Here it is in model form.

so from:
Paypal-1
Email1@Mydomain.com

Paypal-2
Email2@hotmail.com


To this:
Paypal-1
(removed)


Paypal-2
Email2@hotmail.com
Email1@Mydomain.com (moved from PP address 1)

    It will link the accounts, and PayPal may freeze both accounts until they figure your situation out.

    Once you use an email account with a PayPal account it will be forever tied up according to paypal. Even if you delete it from one account and try to use it with another PayPal will tell you that the email address has already been used before and can not be used again. At least that is the way it has been for years unless they have made changes to that recently.

      Cheers.

      I read this one a paypal blog, on how to avoic getting banned.

      "You NEVER want to log into an old PayPal account using your New IP address or cookies"

      Can you verify that above instruction......does it mean this:

      Does that mean you shoudlnt log from 1 paypal account, log out, then 5 minutes later log in with another paypal account, on the same computer (same IP address)?

      so you shouldnt log in to 2-3 paypal address of your own on the same computer, with the same Ip address?



      Full Statement:
      Being Linked to a Previously Limited Account:
      PayPal’s system is always scanning activity, they scan IP logs, they scan
      Cookies, and they scan activity. You NEVER want to log into an old PayPal
      account using your New IP address or cookies.
      You never want make that
      mistake, otherwise PayPal will catch on to that and flag you right away.
      Even if you change the IP, clear the cookies and not the flash cookies, you
      will still be linked and PayPal will flag that and suspend it. So don’t make
      that mistake. It’s going to be very important for you NOT to cross
      information.

    You are going to have a serious problem with this.

    If they find you have the same SSN attached to 2 accounts, they will not let you withdraw more than $500 per month. I found this out the hard way and had a heck of a time correcting it (it wasn't my fault actually).

    I did this and have not had any problems.

    I had an email address on one PP acct, set up a corp and created a PP acct for the corp.

    I wanted to associate the email addy with the corp, so I deleted it from the first PP acct and added it to the second PP acct.

    NOTE: in both cases, it was an "alias", not a "primary" email.

    I cannot imagine why that would be a problem.

      Even if they link 2 accounts, if you take payments in to these 2 accounts then (from differnt sources), then can that trigger bells?

      or they dont like 1 person taking payments from 2 seperate linked accounts?
