Is it illegal using VCC?

Is it illegal to use VCC to verify our paypal account?
If we dont have CC, we can verify our paypal account for cheap price via VCC (virtual credit card)
I never do that, but using by using VCC, you can use fake name to verify paypal account.

In the US it is illegal as paypal is considered a financial institution. Paypal is governed by american laws thus its illegal anywhere.

If you think your pulling one over on Paypal, think again. Just think when your business is going nice, and they limit your account - you can't prove anything.

Well not only in US its illegal anywhere. I think its nothing to do with the country. It's paypal, if they find you used a fake CC (VCC) to verify your account they will sure ask you for the required documents about your CC then from where will you get them?. They will freeze your account and you may lose some money too. I hope i'm not wrong with this.

I agree with that. But its up to you. Some of you maybe have problem to have bank, debit card or credit card. Thats why they use vcc for that purpose. I know many kids underage use vcc because they not able to have credit card yet.

I agree, i used to sell VCC till last year, But recently PayPal has started banning few accounts on VCC, so it is better to use Real CC now.

Man, I wish I could get a credit card. It's so dumb that people who can legally work in the US can't legally have a credit card.

Yap, i heard about that before. Many my friends already get banned from paypal because of that reason. SO, my advice just use prepaid visa card or debit card. Its more better choice if you cannot have credit card.

I think select prepaid cards are fine to use. Some are advertised as safe to use with PayPal.
