How can i get my money out of this account ASAP?
 

I have about 2700 dollars in my paypal account, i need the money out asap. Getting paypal to transfer it to an account or cut a check will take too long. whats the quickest way to get CASH in hand? I was thinking of going to the postoffice and buying moneyorders using my paypal debit card...but where can i cash these money orders? Im guessing a post office wont have 2700 in cash to give me. And i dont really want to take it to a bank and deposite/withdrraw it cuz i dont want anyone seeing i have that much money.

You can get banks to give you the money in an envelope.

Other than that, no idea.

goto a few different banks to cash them? i dunno. $2700 in cash really isn't that much for people to care. it's a bank.

The problem is dont i need an account at the bank to cash the money order?

A bank account is somthing you should have anyways but I'm not gonna get into that.
If your cashing money orders all you need is a valid Drivers Lisence i believe.

As for privacy, ALL banks have at least a cubicle that you can be set into so noone sees that the money will be given to you and so unless you shoot off your mouth saying your getting this, noone will know.

Can you use the debit card at an ATM? I know their are daily limits, but you could get some fast.

The quickest way I get mine out is transfer it to my checking and write myself out a check........takes only about a day to transfer....

I'm wondering why you need $2700.00 in cash so fast??

:hmm:

Thanks for your advice. Actualy i dohave a bank account but i just dont want this money to be on my statement. I will try to find out about cashing money orders with just valid id...hopefuly that will solve my problems.


Also i can do atm but thats a limit of $400 dollars a day, so i need something more efficent.

I am selling exactly $2,700 worth of cocaine 3 days from now to an unnamed buyer I found on the internet. I wonder if there is any connection here?

This sounds very dodgy...

Mr Mephisto

People who want "money out of paypal FAST" generally are scammers who want to get the money quick before the payment is reversed.

Until you prove otherwise, I don't think anyone should be very interested in helping you out, heh.

well said.

..having worked in a bank before...

it ain't gonna happen.

*unless* you can manage to get to the bank the money order was drawn on..otherwise, nope.

and yeah...something seems a bit fishy here :hmm:

If you're selling $2,700 worth of cocaine - why the need for money ?? (unless you don't have the stuff - yet)
Secondly question - work a bit slow huh ??

Tandem, h2g2 wasn't the one who posted the question.

I smell a really big rat. Visotech, why do you need the money?

thats an unusually small trade, isn't it Hg?:D


And I agree, this sounds like a scammer to me. :mad:

Hmmmm....I feel your pain.

Tell you what. As a personal favor to you. Send me the $2700 worth of money orders by USPS Express mail to my PO Box and I'll send you a che...better yet, I'll send you the cash...yeah...that's what I'll do.

Why are you all so quick to assume. I have a paypal account with over 70 verified buyers, and an ebay account with over 80 positives. I am an accomplished seller and use paypal for most of my transfer of funds. Its just that i got a large payment of 2700 for a oscilliscope i sold on ebay, but i want the money in cash. I tend to keep my paypal stuff seperate of my bank account since the account is with my family. I want the money, which is all legit, out for the legit cause of buying stuff. Bleh belive me or not thats my story and im sticking to it....but i suppose thats what they all say. I cant really proove anything can i?

Viso, you'll forgive the skepticism, but this is the 'net. Can't be too careful.

Your last post doesn't explain why you need the cash so quickly, and more importantly, why you don't want to be traced.

Hmm...reminds me of a story I just read about someone finding a lot of money in their account due to a bank error. They quickly spent it all and I believe ended up in jail for theft. Not trying to accuse you of anything visotech, but I think that you have gotten advice on all the possible methods for getting the money out. The thread seems to have moved onto speculation anyway which in this case as loads of potential.

Viso you must understand that the combination of it needing to be both *fast* and *anonymous* makes it seem very very shady. I can't think of a single legitimate thing that needs to be that way.

That said, maybe I'm wrong, and perhaps the anonymity is just a paranoia thing. (I know I certainly have the same feeling sometimes)

In general you can open a small bank account in less than 30 minutes, and deposit the money into there, then simply make a cash withdrawal

...once the funds from the deposit have become 'available'.

how long that takes depends on bank policy...i'd say anywhere from 2-14 days.

that is, if the deposit is a check or m.o.

if it's an electronic deposit, those are the only kind of funds that have immediate avail...

not to mention that it can take a few days to verify a bank account with Paypal and transfer funds.

What's very possible is that he's broken into someone's account and that someone has foolishly left a large (> $1000) amount in there. That kind of thing happens. Given that someone got into MY eBay account last month, I'm a little sensitive on the subject.

That's exactly what I was thinking. Who else is in such a hurry to get cash that they can't wait 48 hours to get it from a bank? Who else would want their transactions to be untraceable? Personally, if I were working with so much money I would want it as traceable as possible so I would have a trail to find it, should it get lost. I can't pin-point what this dude is up to, but it definately has a dubious feel.

Well i found out i cant really cash anything without an account or an id so i transfered the money into my dads joint account and he just gave me cash for it. You guys are really skeptical of people, is it just me or all people?

My guess is the prostitute got sick of waiting to be paid.;)
