    If your friend is you then you can use it. Like I said before, the purpose of the paypal credit card verification is so that you can assure the person you deal with is who he say he is and that he is creditworthy.

    Using someone else credit card which is plain wrong and against their TOS defeats the whole purpose of verification in the first place. It is probably one of the few reasons which makes Paypal go down the drain in recent times.

    With people trying to seek out loopholes and cracks in the Paypal system and going against their TOS to sign up for an account is the reason why I no longer actively use Paypal anymore by signing up with others' credit card, using VCC which does not verify the person or signing up by pretending to be from an approved country. Who can you trust anymore ? If this goes on, Paypal would be no better than a theives' marketplace.

    I thought the details in your paypal account and the credit card must be the same before you can verify it??

    I too confirm that is possible.
    Used my card to confirm a friend's account while he was waiting for his own card, and it has worked just fine.
