Amazon account suspended within 24 hrs of opening
 

Recieved an email stating my UK amazon account had been suspended because it has been linked to a previously blocked account .
They blocked the account without me even selling an item and i only listed 3 in the first place so obviously something brough up a huge red flag.

The amazon account was stealth to the best of my knowledge , new user , new phone number , new entropay card , different name address & email etc etc.

So, how the heck did they link it ?

I perviously had a blocked amazon account on a different user , but i have not used it for months , and i have been carefull to change my ip address when changing users .

I wouldnt' be suprised if amazon were using tracking that can penetrate through users , like some sort of regsitry key, this is unreal , how it happened i have no idea

Did u delete your cookies/make a new windows user?

DO a search through your registry for Amazon...I don't know but it is an idea...Also go to Adobe and clear the websites there as well...Also use CCleaner...I bought the stealth manual and read it like 5 times NO lie...I know a lot of computer geeks and they say people cannot get that deep in your system...If they are getting that deep in to the computers, highly unlikely, someone should prove it and bring a class action suit...

Amazon can detect MAC addresses. The most common ones are in ethernet adapters and cable/DSL modems. So, if you want to use the same computer, you have to "spoof" the MAC addresses - even the ones that you are not actively using. Personally, I just use a different PC for each new Amazon account. You can get them used for cheap.

Amazon uses other things like browser fingerprinting (which I don't understand, beyond the basic concept) and they are very cutting edge in terms of their detection capabilities. Getting around them is not going to become any easier.

Any class action lawsuits are unlikely to be successful in this regard.

My recommendation is to follow all of the eBay stealth rules and search the posts in the forum to learn all you can about how Amazon detects users.

jeffweico, when you first started Amazon how did you go about on sales? I know about the velocity meter but is there quantity meter - 1 per day? per week?

Also - if you care to indulge me ha - did you wait some time before using the account after creation? I always just go right away.
