I opened up a Paypal account a couple of years ago -- specifically for use on eBay.
I've also used the PP account a few times for purchases on websites that aren't set up for CC transactions.
I have never linked my PP account to a bank account. As a result, I retain an "unverified" status. My remaining PP balance has gotten low.
I am not using PP very much these days, so the limited balance isn't something that concerns me.
If I ever were to give PP any banking information, the information would link to a separate account created specifically for use with Paypal. I would only keep the minimum balance in the bank account necessary for the account to remain open. I would never keep anything extra in such a "PP bank account".
A couple of years ago, I noted that many sellers on eBay would not accept PP for payments.
