    I think the ip matter.PP will block your account if someone else from another area (i.e:from a different country) has logged into your account..

    do I need to login the account?
    or I can do everything via that friend?

    I just check the amount in the mail,

    they send the email's to the 1 you open the account with, not sure if you can change it.

    if you get it that way make sure it's your email account and not his.

    dont think it'l work with this ip thingy if they do ( i think they must)

    Yes (but it will be against their terms of service and when Paypal finds out, they will terminate your account, hold your fund for at least 6 months, and then your friend who you asked to violate the terms of service will not be able to open a Paypal account
    No
    Yes
    Yes

    There are countless horror stories in the payment industry about people entrusting others to open and or manage their paypal account. You never want to take that risk because you will be given no protection. Fact is, if you don't open the account, you don't own it and even if you were lucky enough to find a person that doesn't take your money, chances are at one point you will find PayPal closing your account for one reason or another because of the activity.

    They send in an email the amount of money that was transferred to your paypal account. I am not sure what you are asking but honestly, you will be one of those people that will be saying Paypal stole my money or Paypal closed my account.

    Of course, we will sympathize with you, but you violated the terms of service. We might not know why they terminated your account we just will know that you will be upset

    No, I just need to trust the man who open the paypal, I wouldn't open it by myself and just check the e-mail which I doubt it cause a problem,

    then can I put a link to paypal in my site so that people send theri money to me, however I don't know what it requires, I hope I can do that

    when I know the amount of the money I will request the person to send the money to me
    may I want him to buy a virtual credit card and give me the number, (is it a good plan?)

    and if oneday he didn't send the money,
    simply I remove the paypal link from my site

    what do you think?

    No it is not a good plan.
    So you are wanting to do business with someone you don't trust? If these thoughts enter your head regarding this person, then you should not be using this person.
    I think you are wanting something you cannot have. There are cross border regulations in play, not to mention (I think) some rules about United States conducting business with residents of Iran.

    I think that you will be back in six months (if you do find someone do to this) complaining Paypal closed your account with no reason (that you want to give).

    I am not saying you are a bad person, but you are trying to circumvent Paypal's TOS which, well I guess that does not make you a good person.

    You want us to sit here and tell you to go for it - which I won't do. Someone might tell you to go for it and then when Paypal closes your account, you will blame that member.

    Paypal has a terms of service - just like any other business - to protect itself. You wan to circumvent / bypass those for your own self-gain. When Paypal finds out, they will freeze your account.

    I don't know how many other ways to say it but here goes: It is a very bad idea and while it might work for awhile they will find out. People get mad, especially on this forum. If their Paypal account is frozen and they know what you are doing, they will report you.

    Look for other (lega) ways to accept credit card transactions on your website

    I think you don'g give reason for what you say
    there is some points that I can highlight

    from my view point:

    1- he opens the accont, the acount is his not mine


    2- he login the account , the acount is his

    3- there is no reason someone want to freeze it,

    4- I just use it in my site and the amount goes to his account, actually you can suppose I work for him and give my salary

    5- my salary is amount of money that would be collects in his account or maybe the whole of it

    6- if the freeze the account, while i don't see any reason, actually the acount of him is frozen, however part of my money would be lost
    but I plan monthly I recieve the amount of paypal (my salary) from him
    no matter he withraw the amount or provide it from other source

    7- just my infromation about paypal and its featuer is less
    then i asked that is there any thing in this plan that some one can point

    All and all if you want to do something there is nothing someone here can say to change your mind.

    I think the point here is if you do it, go in assuming that you will lose your money, if you are ok with that, then go ahead. If you assume that it can't happen, then you are setting yourself up for disappointment.

    Exactly! It is his account - not yours.
    Semantics. You are trying to get around the cross border regulations, Paypal's terms of service, Visa and MasterCard rules and regulations. What you are wanting to do is aggregate. Paypal is already an aggregator. A merchant account is given to Paypal to aggregate / factor funds from the issuing bank to the acquiring bank and then to Paypal the merchant. You are putting in another party into this mix - which is to one extent, idiotic. I don't know another word for it at this point.
    Good friend you are - you don't care about him it seems? They can take money from his bank account, etc to pay back your customers.
    Point out what? That you are wanting to violate the terms of service of Paypal?

    I doubt paypal bother this plan as you bother, mate

    its not idiotic, cause i can not open paypal account, and its the way,

    pay to which customer, we recieve money not give

    take it easy, its just a talk and contract beween me, and someone who have the paypal account,

    I guess there was not much point that some one can deliver, then I suppose it is promising

    The part that does not make sense and that I said is 'idiotic' is the point in whihc you want to add another party to this transaction. You already have six parties involved and you want to add more?

    And yes Paypal will bother. Why do you think they have a terms of service? If they lose their merchant account, they have lost their business. I guess you don't remember a few years ago when Visa decided to charge adult merchants and Paypal terminated thousands of accounts because they were processing that type of business.

    You are wanting to violate the Paypal's TOS, Visa / MasterCard rules, regulations, their cross border regulations.

    Your subject 'Can another one open me a paypal account?' - well the answer is no.

    yes I think the subject is incorrect,
    I may can say it,

    Can I use the paypal account of another one to recive money

    also may I must read the TOS, as you pointed the aggregator part,

    and it seems I have not much other way except to enter another party
    remember, that servive with the feature you say is not provided in Iran

    If you trust the person, whose paypal account you are going to use, You can do it. You can use your friend's account to recieve money.
