Things Amazon Can See
 

What things can Amazon see as of today March 2015 when you login?

Can they see the User accounts name(s) on your PC?
Can they see MAC addresses?
Can you setup a new stealth and list a product you listed to check FBA rates but deleted and never sold without being linked?

1. No
2. No
3. I haven't tried this - seems no but other people will comment

this is not true. they CAN see your mac address and if you have been banned and attempt to make a new account on the same computer, using the same mac address AND ip, they will deny your new signup attempt. i have first hand experience with this and know it to be true (from an irl associate of mine who it happened to personally).

also, why take chances? spoof your mac address, or just use a new computer along with a stable proxy that is located in your same area and play it safe.

(btw this is my first post and new to the forum so hopefully this helps, as i am trying to contribute to the community) ;)

Amazon cannot see you MAC address this is impossible and has been mentioned many times on these forums. They can only trace your IP address which needs to be different. Basically Amazon will see the IP address that connects to there website server.

NOT true. They do not track MAC

If you want to spoof your MAC address though you can download TMAC v6, works well.

IP and cookies on your user account, but only on the browser you are using.
I believe that amazon only cross reference bad IP's i.e. banned seller/buyer accounts. Millions of people use amazon everyday, and all IP's are logged of course but to cross reference them all would be a waste of processing resources when 99.999 would have no issues.

Welcome to the forums blade - lot of posts about how they do not track MAC - I hear you on taking precautions however.

Taking the Micky - You are correct. I have a client that claims he has 3 different Amazon seller accounts and they are all on one address. He's never been banned or suspended and his main account does over $1 million a month and Amazon has never linked him yet. Apparently, when you get banned, thats when they must have their system start tracking your information against other accounts for linking purposes.

Re: Things Amazon Can See
 

One point you must understand is that amazon looks for similarities.

Their parameters are quite extreme too.

Were you aware of that?

:typing:

Re: Things Amazon Can See
 

Yes, I am aware from reading thru the forum. I am just concerned, I listed a few of my brands products (but never sold), then they suspended me. I see the 5:1 ratio of adding products, so does that mean it is a possibility to resell those products? I mean, I can add new UPC codes and information since I was just checking what my FBA rates would potentially be. Some of the products on the banned account I won't be reselling so many things would be different.

Has anyone resold successful some of their products from a banned account again on a new account without getting linked?
