    Umm,I'm not sure..lol

    Never.
    That's why I started this thread. ;)
    Besides,I've no idea why this thread is in the "Domain Names" section,I think I did start in the right one.I hope MODS will move it to the right one soon.

    I think many are using VCC since years and also paypal never posted that "VCC is not allowed " in their TOS..
    But i might not use ..

    i know a few people in here, they use vcc and never got any trouble! but then i still don't think it should be better to use vcc!

    i have also heard that some banks gives prepaid vcc, perhaps we can try that, though i don't know it is leagal or not! also i don't know if my bank gives prepaid vcc!:rolleyes:

    Removed your CC?
    Why?
    I think you can't withdraw your funds while using a VCC,right?

    Ya i removed CC as it was reaching date of expiry.

    I am from india,so even a real CC verified Paypal cant withdraw a fund to bank account,we can only request a cheque.

    Wow.....That's pretty cool!
    Honestly speaking,I've never heard someone who used VCC has been caught by Paypal.Good news to those VCC users. :)

    I too get 4 checks after verifying using vcc. But I know that I will be caught at anytime. Because I know how to catch person who verified by VCC then paypal will come to know about it soon.
