    I want to verify my Paypal account, is it ok and legal to verify using a Virtual Credit card? Or will I be banned from PayPal for doing that?
    Thankyou.

    I've heard that there are issues sometimes, but they rarely happen.

    And is there any chance that the person I get the card from will be able to hack my account or something?

    Form your name, I get a feeling that you sell Virtual Credit Cards.
    Thanks anyway.
    I'm sorry if you were offended but I didn't mean it.

    How rude can you get? Someone offers a helpful answer to your question and you dismiss his viewpoint without even a "thank you" because you think he "looks like a seller"? So you're inviting replies only from people who are experienced PayPal users but don't sell anything? Good luck with that! :eek:

    There are no issues using a VCC.
    In fact, it is recommended over CC.
    So, go for it.

    having said that, there are issues with VCCs. So, i think you must think twice before going ahead.

    take your stance now with your ____ attitude.

    I read elsewhere in the forum that VCC's aren't
    allowed to be sold openly anymore here.

    "If" I wanted to get one, how or from who
    can I get one.

    Thanks

    I think your account will get limited in 90 days, you will then have no option, you will have to add credit card to receive or pay amounts.

    I didn't want to buy or receive any money with it.
    I was actually only going to use a VCC as verification
    of "having" a US account. I'm from Canada.

    Well If you have VCC service from your bank then you can generate VCC from your back and fill correct information according your profile information so in case if there will be any issue, you can submit your documents.
