Best way to proceed for multiple accounts
 

Wondering what others think the best way to obtain multiple IP addresses for multiple Amazon accounts.

I have the VMWare accounts set up, and all the other information in place ... but what I need now is the best way to run multiple IPs...?

I am imagining the answer is multiple VPS accounts. If so, what should I be mindful of. I have read that I should obtain a "dedicated" line. If so, how much will this run me per month? And are their providers that cater to people who are looking to purchase multiple VPS accounts?

Sorry...I am learning here...so, any help would be much appreciated.

Thanks!

You can work with multiple VPS accounts.

Since you are in the US, you can also consider dongle use or cellphone tethering.

Running several IP's.....I choose to do the internet USB stick - virgin mobile. works great! runs me about $25 month for 1.5 gb.

How to run:

1. Log off all user accounts first.
2. Click which user account you want to access for your stealth account.
3. Insert your USB stick - connect to your virgin mobile account.
4. Once your connected - choose your browser and login to your azon account.
5. When finished - log out of azon. click disconnect from broadband USb stick.
6. Log off your user account.

This provides a new IP address each time you do this.

Re: Best way to proceed for multiple accounts
 

So, with one USB stick you can run multiple accounts...from that one stick?

Or, will I have to get 10 x USB sticks for the 10 individual accounts?

Too...if you go in to different IP addresses every time...how can you be sure one of those isn't going to be one that someone else has used...and therefore trigger Amazon's bot system?

VPN/VPS would work great for you, just pick a reliable provider. Combining it with VMware is a great idea, it makes multi tasking much easier!

Re: Best way to proceed for multiple accounts
 

If we use VM for multi account with multi VPN, some issues need help:

1. Before the VPN, the local DSL model and DSL mac is the same. Even we use VPN to get different IP address, is it cause the issue since multiple account from the same DSL gateway? If we change MAC every time when we switch account, it will be easy to make mistake for long run

2. Sometime , VPN disconnect and internet becames local DSL IP. But, we have no detect on VPN disconnection. That will trigger issue to link all the account together. How can prevent this thing happen?

Re: Best way to proceed for multiple accounts
 

1. Don't have to worry about MAC, most people agree it doesn't need to be changed. Also when you login to a VPN your MAC changes automatically

2. Plenty of software available for that shoot me a msg if need help

Dongle is the best and easiest. Amazon will know the IP ranges of mobile providers and won't close an account if an IP has been used before.

Re: Best way to proceed for multiple accounts
 

I run 30 accounts on VPS servers this is the easiest for me . I use shipstation to monitor my incoming sales. Thunderbird mail to monitor messages from customers. My mail is dual redudant in case my computer crashes I always have one on a vps server .

Could you send a link to your VPS provider? Interested in signing up!

It's easy as 123. Talk to him.

Re: Best way to proceed for multiple accounts
 

How many accounts are you talking about?
You can use a mobile hotspot from your phone. Every time you hit airplane mode for 10 seconds, it will reset your IP address.
You can use multiple pre paid ATandT no contract mobile hotspots with different sin cards for about 50 dollars for 5 gbs.
The main thing you are not considering which will get you caught is your browser. You can reset, erase, delete etc all those things to your browser but if you use the same broswer for any two accounts, they WILL CATCH YOU. You need to go into your USER ACCOUNT, create a new account for EACH ACCOUNT and name it for easy recognition. This will isolate ALL COOKIES amazon places on your computer each time you log in.
Make sure you use the correct mobile hotspot for each account. NEVER EVER cross contaminate an account with browsers, user accounts or IP addresses DO NOT CHECK MAIL from all the accounts on your phone. You will essentially be logging in to all accounts from the same browser device once again. Always check mail from a laptop with that user logged in.

56k internet......no need to worry about mac....dial in new number and track ips

cellphone tethering .....if you have a whole bunch of different phones or know how to do a mac address spoof on the phone.....or have different sim cards.....

vpn service is expensive....and also you have to be careful if the connection drops.....

Re: Best way to proceed for multiple accounts
 

Thanks a lot for your reply. Another series issue is account validation. When sales start, amazon will ask me about SSN. I can not provide SSN for sure. Is any method we handle the verification issue for multi accounts?

FYI: For each LLC in california, it is required to prepare company document and apply for LLC foundation at state board. This cost almost $1000. Also, minimum tax reliabilty is $800 per year. Also tax return cost minimum $500 for LLC. The base cost for LLC is $1000 for application and $1300/yr for maintenance.

Re: Best way to proceed for multiple accounts
 

just change the country in the interview. Will tell you do you pay taxes here in us, just say no and enter name and address of a different country, then we it says shipping, put usa stealth shipping and done.

Re: Best way to proceed for multiple accounts
 

I dont understand why this was so over complicated in the book, Amazon Ghost.

If someone wanted to do multiple seller accounts, the best way to do this would be through a VPS where you would have a dedicated and static IP. Every account would need a new VPS.

I am worried that the author never mentioned this in the book, it makes me wonder if there is something wrong with this approach.

Under this approach, do we have to worry about changing the MAC address? DOes anybody know?

Re: Best way to proceed for multiple accounts
 

No dont have to worry about MAC, especially not when using VPN/VPS.

Re: Best way to proceed for multiple accounts
 

123 is correct about MAC - many posts about how it isn't necessary to worry about

Amazon Ghost is hardly complicated.
