 using paypal plug in to purchase spores

ok so I have heard that buying through paypal isnt a good thing but what about the plug in thats backed by mastercard.You generate a virtual cc number from mastercard and make a purchase as if you were using a cc .You close the card after so that number cant be used again.Has anybody used this method to purchase products.I used this method to purchase salvia and all went well.Anybody?

This is the cultivation side of shroomery, not the vendor forum.
Since I'm here I'll plant my .02
Cash is the only safe way. I'm not saying you're going to be in trouble if you use paypal or any credit card service, but it will leave a trail and that trail will be what leads the dogs to you if you give them the reason.
In my experience, paypal is the #1 site for monitoring purchases and freezing accounts. Beware.

Depends on where he lives. but yeah, spores are legal in most places... but if you're ONLY buying spores for a collection than go for paypal...
If you plan on growing then a little more caution should be taken...

I haven't really bought spores all that many times because I make tons of lc out of prints that I traded for back when I was growing,anyway,cash is probably the safest but I have used credit cards with no problems,I am a paranoid person by nature and never had them sent to where I was growing

 This thread was moved from Mushroom Cultivation.
Reason:
This is not a cultivation or vendor related question. The most appropriate forum appears to be the Security and Safety forum. As such, I'm moving it now.

good luck im gonna laugh when paypal bans your account for buying spores like they have others. not to mention froze any money in the account with it, but it's your choice. your right it is a question.

What is the purpose of this plan? What does this accomplish? I don't see how this negates any of the reasons not to use credit cards or paypal.

It doesn't really. Its trading one paranoia for another, but if it is paypal he's worried about......
The truth is that nothing is totally secure besides cash money. Even with that records are kept. With the types of hobbies we share, we take risks. It's those of us that take calculated risks that sleep at night.

i guess i feel safer using a prepaid card rather than my own credit card . I know nothing is 100percent safe as every1 takes a risk.Its just lessening the risk to a degree.I know paypal is out of the question as they keep records of everything and will ban u and hold your money if they find out your buying spores .Im sure there are 100's of people who have used cc's and have admitted to it a bunch of times saying they bought using their cc or debit card with out a problem .This new hobby of mine is for personal use and is not for mass quantities .It definitely is paranoia as I am sure they have bigger fish to fry but it does make u sleep better at night=)

My 2 cents - Paypal froze my account until I called them and "confirmed" the order. Which I did not.
They cancelled the charge, unfroze my account, and I did NOT use them again for this. Cash + ralph = teh win.

I used a pre-paid credit card registered under a fake name (actually the name of a guy with an adress that is same numbers as mine but different street) Also used his name for the shipping name...
