are their any vanilla cards that don't require a ssn number?
What do you mean ? I have never required any information to buy and use vanilla Mastercards. Is this an American thing ? I buy vanilla cards all the time as gifts for birthdays ect.. and for all my online shopping. There is a post on the process of purchasing and registering vanilla cards for use with paypal here http://www.satfix.net/showthread.php...ly-AnonymouslyQuote:

Yes, the USA requires a ssn number (and other traceable information) to use pre-paid credit cards, I believe it came about after 9/11 and has something to do with stopping people from being able to fund terrorist groups anonymously.Quote:

That is the only information you are able to input for the card.
Makes me wonder how long before the Canadian cards will require more identifiable information to use them if at all. Oh well just another reason Canada is better :tehe:
Try a onevanilla prepaid visa. They do not require an SSN to use.
The Obama Adm. stopped ALL prepaid cards that I know of that do not require SS , name, address, e-mail, phone number and etc. ... Money pak, Visa, MC, and all others in the USA .... (if you know of ANY and where to purchase, please share) ???

OneVanilla page is hereCode:https://www.onevanilla.com/onevanilla/about.html
my mailman used onevanilla cards, he didn't have to register it but he did register the zip code.....no ssn number or name or anything required. He then linked the onevanilla to his fake paypal and then paid that way.
did your mailman have to give a phone number or E-mail ... How was the contact made to activate the card ???
Yes, so that's the same as the Canadian vanilla cards from the sounds of it. You buy them anywhere and can use them anywhere cards are accepted in person, but to use it online it needs to be registered to an address (just zip or postal code) for the credit card verification systems to work properly on web stores.Quote:
