hi guys!
i'm working on rebranding a plr e-book to make it my own and sell it , but i think at the first sale paypal will ask for the rebranded e-book property.
the question is how can i prove that i'm the original owner of that book ( i'm not going to register at us office for copyrights ) any ideas ?

    I don't see why PayPal would query it. Are you looking to sell it on your own site or via a third party platform?

        I've sold thousands of PLR ebooks, videos, graphics, etc using PayPal.

        The only concern would be if you don't have a legal right to sell an item or if the contents are illegal (like selling a recipe for meth).

        If you purchased the item legally you were provided a license that will solve any potential issues.

    I cannot imagine Paypal will care. Amazon will care. They won't let you sell a PLR book on Amazon.

    if you read this: ( https://bookmachine.org/2017/09/26/h...s-for-authors/ )

    First and foremost, you want to do a search on the Library of Congress for the proposed title, and see if it is taken...

    I would suggest a "Copyright Page" if you believe your work is original enough and the name isnt already taken.

    I would look at the requirements from eBay in selling such things... I haven't looked in a while but if memory serves me correct that have a pretty in depth set of rules regarding this stuff. And the reson I am pointing you in this direction is not to sell there, but to see what standards a company such as eBay might be looking at.

    Hope that Helps!

    Yes I never read or experienced paypal being sensitive to that.

    Just dont try anything like raising money for "causes" they will freeze you in a heartbeat.

    Wonder did Elon Musk come up with that freezing for 6 months concept.

    Paypal did not ask for anything in this case - just anticipating problems..
