Verifying Paypal Using VCC
I often see VCCs or virtual credit cards being sold usually at the forums to verify one’s paypal account. Many could attest that using these cards are effective, but I learn from Selaplana’s post that VCCs are not recommended. As he says it:
You can buy VCC from VCC providers for only $20 to $60. It’s just virtual (not physical credit card) but its functions are similar to credit card. This kind of credit card expires in a short period of time from 24 hours to 6 months. So, if you’ll use this, make sure to buy a VCC that expires at least in 2 months.
However, I don’t recommend it. There’s a problem with it especially if Paypal will request copies of your credit documents. You couldn’t provide one if you’re simply using the VCC.
Seriously, problems with Paypal happens too often (I get lots of emails on how to lift of Paypal limits, which requires a user to fax personal documents, so there must be a lot of people who encounter trouble with their own accounts) so this further proves that VCCs are not recommended.
