Default Using friends and family to set up stealth accounts

Hi all,

I want to set up a stealth account, but in a relatives name. I am in Australia and based in Brisbane, but all my relatives live in sydney. I know the general info out there is that the physical address can't be too far away from your IP address. So my question is this - Is Brisbane and Sydney to far to stretch the boundaries with EB and PP. Cheers all

This is the 100,000,000 time this question has been asked....the answer by overwhelming consensus is.....NO! Do not use friends, Family, Pets, Neighbors.

Hey shaggydoo you going for the world record in new threads? This one is exactly the same as the other one I added a reply to, no wonder MM78 started to blow a fuse there! No do not use anybody elses's details, can you not grasp that this really is not a good thing to do, because those friends or relatives are going to get really upset with you if you ruin any chance they have of selling on eBay by you getting their private details blacklisted.

It is just so easy for you to open stealth accounts in your own newly created stealth details, without involving anyone else's information. This forum is packed full of the right ways to go about setting up new stealth accounts, there is a search box further up this page that you can use to get all the answers you need as well.

Physical address only has to be in the same country as the IP...in general.

I never understand why people always want to use their friends or family names.

Do people not realize if the accounts turn to sh!t that they have now made their friends or families lives harder? do people not realize that if a buyer does a chargeback and you have no money in the account. it turns into a negative balance and it effects the persons credit rating.

why would anyone want to do this to their friends or family?
