It's a relatively common thing for criminals to do, and is known as a 'long firm': http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Long_firm

1) Run a legit business for a few months

2) Build up credit history with suppliers

3) After a while, buy a huge amount of stock on credit

4) Sell all of the stock for cash at massive discounts

5) Disappear with the cash, leaving a pile of unpaid debt in your wake

Sure. Someone does that when they are looking to steal hundreds of thousands of dollars, or millions of dollars.

Someone looking to put one over on PayPal is not going to do all that crap. Sorry. I need to hear some actual examples if I'm going to change my mind.
