At least if you have a PayPal account you should be able to receive payments to your Paypal wallet but you will not be able to withdraw ,it that is why a lot of people do find someone to sell their PayPal fund to, I don't know why some people have been claiming to open it correctly.When i first opened a PayPal account, i started using it as a means of transcation but when i realised that i cannot receive payment into my PayPal acvount from a foreign country , i decided to drop paypal.
