    I don't know what is the issue in your case that paypal is not accepting your Master Card. But in Visa there are electorn card which can only be used in stores and ATMs but can't be used in Internet. This kind of situation may have happened with you.

    You can also contact your bank explaining the issue. One question to you, did you ever used your card for purchasing goods online?

    I've attached a MasterCard with PayPal. If the card is functioning, PayPal works with it smoothly.

    actually No , but I'm sure that this card can one work online , I have another one for stores ... etc.

    actually paypal doesn't accept egypt as a country even for registrations , I had to choose india to be able to register.

    As you know Egypt is not a paypal supported country and as such, all credit cards from egypt would not be permitted. When they say your country is not supported, they do not mean that you can use a fake address and sign up for an account. They do mean that if you are not supported, you are not supported.

    This is to prevent anyone from being funny and create fake or fraud accounts using fake details to sign up.

    Your only solution would be to wait until Egypt becomes a supported country and for the meantime, do not do anything which is prohibited by paypal because it just make you and your countrymen look bad and may give them more reason not to support your country.

    Yup, that is correct. If Paypal finds out your using fake information to sign up and they trace your credit card back to Egypt, your account can be frozen.
