Safari browser links amazon accounts
 

Don't use the Safari browser to create or access Amazon accounts. They just suspended all of the accounts that I created using the Safari. I used IE and Firefox for the rest of the Amazon accounts that I have and they are intact. I was using different user accounts for each Amazon account and changing IP, Mac address every time I logged in. The only similar thing between the suspended accounts was the browser used to access the accounts.

and your Computer-ID, NIC-ID........dont be so sure about Safari?!

My question is that when trying to be as generic as possible, why would anyone USE Safari?

I am SURE there is more to it than that.
Maybe it had to do with your items you are selling?
Maybe it had to do with your hidden NIC MAC's?
Maybe it had to do the computer name?
There are MANY other things that could be at fault.
You can not blame a specific Browser like Safari as the sole problem.
I know better.

post sounds fishy to me.

Besides using different user accounts and changing Mac address (NIC-ID), IP address, I also change computer name and volume ID every time I log in to an Amazon account. Amazon tracks the browser you use to log in to each account so I tried to diversify the browsers I use for Amazon accounts so they won't get linked. I also use Firefox, IE and Chrome. I am pretty sure that the Safari linked the accounts because I sell the same products on all of my accounts and do the same procedures before I log in to each account and so far the accounts that I log in to using the other browsers are working. One simple explanation to this could be that Safari shares the cookies between the user accounts.

There is your answer!!:doh:

I Currently have 2 Amazon accounts using Safari, One on win XP Pro, one on Vista Ultimate, Both Accounts are 8 Months old,,,,,NO Problems,,,


With Amazon it could be A LOT Of other things,,,as Noted above,,,

I've used Safari a lot - at least as much as 6 other browsers and never had any problems.

Good to hear from MadSam that he uses safari browser for his amazon with no problems. "was getting a little worried"
