Question eBay Suspension - Is it safe to use a friend's account?

Hello. I was recently suspended from eBay and was told it would be for at least 12 months. I am hoping to start selling again before then.

A friend has told me that I can use his eBay and PayPal account. Is this safe to use? I have bought a brand new laptop so that there are no references to my old eBay or PayPal account, and I can change my IP address whenever I wish.

I am wondering whether I can use his account from my house with a new IP address and my new laptop and be safe? I understand that I will not be able to log into his account and my suspended account with the same IP address otherwise eBay can link it. Thank you.

i would recommend you to get a new account in a totally different imaginary name. not worth risking to have your friend banned from ebay for life as well.

It's just like creating a new eBay account.

For the most part.

But yes, you're risking your friend's account by using it. What was the reason you were suspended in the first place?

I was suspended for selling Lacoste shirts. Is there a risk if the IP address is different? Is there a guide to making a new PayPal account? Has anybody used the eBay Replay guide?

I would just read everything on the site hear and start new accounts both EB and PP. Maybe your friend will list a few items for you, provided they are banned, while you get set up.
But for you to access your friend's account and use it could be dooming his by linking to you old one through IP cookies, etc.

Maybe you already know that I am a fully satisfied customer of eBay Replay. I bought the book a while back and successfully got back on to ebay. The book is constantly being update (it was just updated again on Oct. 3). I have written alot of my comments here at aspkin. Just do a search on the word REPLAY. Bottom Line...it worked for me like a dream and would recommend it whole heartedly.:D

Don't get your friend suspended dude. The best thing to do is follow the guide and not start up a new PP account. Start a merchant account. IF what your selling is not legit your friend will be suspended instead of you. Don't risk your friendship over that kind of stuff.
