Are Auctiva Honest

ambercolour · 07-08-2008, 12:29 PM

In May I setup two eBay accounts, different names and everything. I attached Auctiva to the accounts let them rest for a while and then I started to upload a few times. Then eBay decided to remove the "Auctiva token", and then asked to "reset the password" due to people accessing my eBay account. They stated that someone else tried to access my account (this is a bot responce), this got me thinking, anyway I changed the password and it was ready to sell again and I had to add the Auctiva token back to the ebay account (ebay records the ip address when you setup the token).
Second account basically the same situation, and then ebay reset the password because they said someone was accessing my account. This made me think, is Auctiva shareing the ip addresses with ebay? Or letting ebay know that there is different ip address ranges accessing the Auctiva accounts?

Auctiva doesn't share your ip address with eBay the last I checked. I don't see why they would change now.

It's most likely an eBay thing. If you change your IP address often, eBay thinks a 3rd party is trying to access your account. Especially if you make a lot of changes to your account.

I know from a reliable source that Auctiva in the past wanted to give IP addresses to eBay, but eBay refused to accept them. Most likely due to privacy concerns.

The account is accessed via dialup, and nothing changed, no password or email. It wasnt even vero or expensive items which were listed. Ive delt with accounts in the past with ebay and no problem, thanks anyway
