I would confess rather than compound the problem.

apple · May 03, 2007, 11:37:44 AM

thatt fraud

Homer · May 03, 2007, 11:41:30 AM

I don't mean to sound cold but she made a poor choice. In my book honesty is the best policy.

apple · May 03, 2007, 11:47:15 AM

what happens if she confesses what about money etc and cld she get charged with fraud

Homer · May 03, 2007, 11:50:57 AM

I suppose it's possible. I'm not real familiar with Paypal and their policies but I think I would rather confess than get caught. Maybe someone else can better recommend what to do.

Sounds like she needs to tell her mom and let her call paypal to straighten it out. ;:"

apple · May 03, 2007, 12:11:23 PM

You see what happen here is..she used her friends address and her mothers bank card..online sites use the bank card holders address..aka.. her mothers address not her friends..thats why the problem with paypal. If she used this bank card of her mothers without permission..she could get 5-10..if did with permission why a different address then?..seems you better shy away from this matter if I was you.

she also put her mums details on paypal as the card holder addy

Chata *#$% up · May 03, 2007, 12:28:18 PM

I would contact paypal and explain in detail what happened. Check out this link to read up on how to contact them and under what subject matter you think fits.

Apple do what Chata stated..best thing to do.

I still don't understand who's mom? When you sign up for paypal, it takes a few days for it to even start because they check everything out. They even take out a few cents, and send a notice to the email addy that they did. Then the email addy owner replies back and then that's it. All money from then on goes to that email addy (well notice does). The money is going to go to the bank account it was opened up with.

Are you saying the mother (whoevers mother) has money in their paypal account? And the kid can't get it out?

If that's the case that's not a big deal. Just tell your mom or your friends mom..Surely they won't try to put you in jail.

Like always, I'm confused and probably have the story all wrong. I did read the whole thread twice though. ""

she has access to her mums account as she was waiting on one of her own and they did take the small amouts out and she put them in then they limited the account the money in paypal is from stuff she was selling on ebay

unlucky1 · May 04, 2007, 10:55:32 PM

ok let me see if i have this right... she used her moms bank card and cant get money out of paypal now? if just the card is on file then what ya have to do is add a bank account (not the card) then she shouldnt have any probs gettin money out. when u add a bank account the limited account will go away.. you have to be verified to be able to get unlimited funds from your paypal account... hope this helps..

unlucky1 · May 04, 2007, 11:06:36 PM

oh yeah i forgot to mention she can always go back and change any info she put on paypal.. like home addresses and e mail address and bank accounts so everything can match. also she can request a check from paypal it takes about 2 weeks to get but when ya dont have a bank account its the only thing she can do.. unless she likes shopping online with paypal thats the only way i see to get the money out of paypal. hope this helps..

apple · May 04, 2007, 11:44:48 PM

i hope all goes well.. but still dont make any sense. i deal with paypal often and the only reason i ever had a limited account is because i had a basic account not business account.. once i added my bank account (not card) and upgraded to premier account everything was fine. but i guess i never put wrong info on account either. i am a proud verified paypal user :&
