Activity: 0% Longevity: 65% | | New Stealth MC067 + MC999
I have tried to create a new stealth account. I have followed the stealth guide and after listing 2 items i woke up this morning with my stealth account suspended.
The steps I followed were.
Created a new user account on computer
Unplugged power from router to create a new IP
Created Gmail account
Created ebay + paypal account. Used new sim and entropay vcc
Used ⊗⊗⊗⊗ name and random (real) address less than 20 miles away.
What am I doing wrong?

What was the value of the items listed? High or low?
Was that paypal verified?
Not impressed with the name and address description.
Did you clear cookies etc and were you 100% sure the IP was new? | The Following User Says Thank You to GreenBean For This Useful Post: | |

started listing at .99p with £2.10 p&p item would sell for between £2 - £15
I have Ccleaner but i used a new user account on my compuer so I didn't clear cookies.
I am sure I get a new IP address every time I unplug the router for a few mins.

Could have happened for a whole number of reasons. You'll never know for sure. Here's just a few:-
1. Paypal unverified.
2. Paypal not linked to ebay.
3. A suspended account at the address used.
4. Listing too quickly on a new account
5. High risk items
6. IP address not changed

Possible issue is with cookies. What OS are you using?

It's definitely not my .ip. I have just checked my ip unplugged my router and re-checked and it has changed.

At a guess, I'd go for 1,2 or 4 from my list (or a combination of the three).

I'm willing to bet that you listed the items too quick after creating the account, OP. Should wait at least 30 days before listing first item.

From day 1 to day 30, my account is just a buyer's account. Simple bidding, buying, and winning some cheap items to build up feedback.
After 30 days, I start to sell my first couple of items. I sell items that have high chance of getting positive feedback and low chance of returns.
After 60 days, I slowly increase - always varying the products.
After 90 days, once the limits are increased, I start to sell more - always staying under ebay's limit.
These are all efforts to stay un-noticed and under the radar...or stealth-like.

A little bit of an update. Thanks to all the advice here and re-reading the stealth guide, I have been successful in creating stealth accounts.
I have 2 ebay + 2 paypal accounts with random addresses that I have been browsing on and selling very basic items and I have created 1 ebay+paypal account with a mail box that I have just started to sell on and no issues yet.
I have just opened a new current account and I will be using this with my ebay account that is linked to my mail box.
A couple of questions. How can I raise my selling limits on my ebay accounts that have a random address, at the minute they are limited to selling 10 items?
Also, do you think it is too soon to send a raise selling limitation for the account that I have access to the address? When I have done this in the past ebay have posted out a 4 digit number to confirm the address.
Many thanks for all your help.

Thanks for the update and way to go! Now its time to nurture and build those stealths into strong accounts. Quote:

Ebay will gradually increase you once you consistently hit those limits. Quote:

If you feel your selling limitations are well, limiting you...then make a new stealth account. Spreading your sales across multiple stealths is preferred method for most.

Many thanks for your reply.
More stealth accounts mean i need more bank accounts, Is there anyway around this?

You have to do this especially if you are running multiple accounts.
There is always the slight chance that you may have recycled through an IP that you were using with a limited/banned/suspended account.
Just food for thought

What am I doing wrong? | Power cycling the router does not necessarily get a new IP. If you tracked your IPs, this is definitely where the mistake is.

Today on one of my stealth accounts i received a MC124 Notice: eBay Account Limited - Verify Identity
I have had all of my listings removed and limitations placed on my account. I probably started to list too many items too quickly which caused the notice,
(I listed the full 10 items after 1 week of opening the account)
Is there anyway around this notice, or do I just move on?

If you supply what they are asking for they should restore your account.
