Tracking through emails / Web beacons / TOKENS / index.dat files? WHAT ELSE?

I feel sorry for the people that want to make more then one Ebay account. Seems like SO much to worry about! But I understand its necessary for many of you high end sellers.

I would be willing to bet most of the people visiting this forum just want one good account like they had before to sell their supplemented income items.

To get going again on one account seems pretty straight forward.....

1. Format and Restore your computer with the factory software.
2. Change your IP address
3. New Email through GMAIL
4. New PO BOX
5. New Checking Account
6. New Ebay Account with a variation of your name
7. New PayPal Account with same variation or your name as above
8. NEVER EVER SIGN IN TO YOUR OLD ACCOUNTS

When i got suspended from ebay their website attempted to scan my clipboard , im not sure what else it got rom my pc.
i am not sure why they bother...i had a warning message in explorer that the site was seeking permission to see my clipboard. i denied access. so we do have some security. I think it would be a wise precaution for anyone here who is seeking to open a new ebay account perfectly lawfuly. after being suspended usualy in a manner that leaves a very bad taste in the mouth. Lets face the truth and say that they do treat there customers in an inhuman manner. so what respect do they deserve in return. NON.
I would definatly restore my PC . Or reformat . before attempting to open a new account. if only to be sure all trace of activity known or unknown is removed.

I made a mistake.

Using outlook express receiving email from my new paypal acount.(I did not configure outlook to safe stardard)

in the mean time, logged in to my old limited accounts. (I have never logged into my new pp account using this computer)

So my question is: will the cookie in email find what I did on firefox? Or will the cookie in my firefox find that I have new paypa account by reading my email

Thank you so much

If I send messages through eBay to buyers telling them to pay via my Ccnow account can eBay use those against me? Can they get a hold of those messages?

[aspkin]

I doubt you'll have any problems, let us know how it goes though.

[abusing-eBay]

Thank you, Aspkin.

Your post made me feel better.

It has been a horrible month. More than a dozen accounts, half of them PowerSellers, got killed for a few unfair feedback in one account(the buyers got items and refunds too). Before finding this forum, my new accounts were captured one by one which made me desperate and helpless.

I should have bought this ebook much earlier. I wanted to save that money by only viewing the forum. It turned out that I lost much more than that. I wasted a lot money on wrong credit cards , wrong virtual phone company. and needless to say, time

Hope things could get better.

hi,

I was suspended from Ebay (buyer) and I want to open a new account after opening a new Email account, new credit card, new paypal account and changing my IP.

my question is: can I login my previous Gmail account (which I used for registering my old suspended Ebay account) after I open a new Ebay account?
can Ebay "see" my cookies indicating I logged into my previous Gmail account, and make the connection?

thanks

Nope. Fleebay can't read other cookies on your system.

The cookie specifications constrain cookies to be sent back only to the servers in the same domain as the server from which they originate.

Gmail is the ideal stealth email account, as not only is it a brilliant free email service, google do not share your ip with anyone, any email you send, the only ip that can be derived from that email header is google's own.

Ha, you tell me! My wonderful 2 powerseller accounts more than 1000 FB each down the drain last week.

I think you shouldnt be worrying. As I understand it, you only checked email with the wrong IP. I dont think emails have cookies...do they? Plus when you check your email you are not logging into paypal, but your mailserver.

we are told never to sign into old accounts
but can you give exact reason why you think ebay cant see ip through sending an email to a normal non g-mail type e-mail account. think if I can see the IP of a recipeint when I use my g-mail then why cant ebay?
Surely this means any old accounts with old non gmail e-addresses are in trouble because they send e-mails and see Ip of that day, and perhaps that day you are setting up new account completely correctly.
doesnt one have to close those e-mail accounts completely eg a hotmail account!
why wouldnt ebay have this software, it exists?
