Not seeing a way around Amazon tax interview
 

So opening an LLC for new Amazon stealth accounts is easy enough. Also is buying an account on the marketplace but I don't want to spend hundreds of dollars. So I purchased Amazon Ghost in hopes of creating accounts, but no info on the tax interview. If I put that i'm an American Citizen they want my ss#. So I get around that and but that I am from another country, now they want a passport. I can buy a passport with second eye solutions but i'm guessing the passport number won't pass verification. Am I missing something here?

I don't think Amazon double checks passport numbers with some kind of a governmental agency in the first place. That would be a tedious task on Amazon's part. I also think that eBay, Amazon or any other marketplace collects such info from sellers so that they're on the safe side shall the government jump in and ask for a seller's credentials (in cases of tax fraud...etc).

This is my personal thought on this, the situation might be totally different than what I think it is... Who knows :-/

I have all the Amazon Ghost steps perfect and ready to open multiple accounts. The tax interview is what's tripping me up. Not sure if you have all USA information but in the tax interview say i'm Canadian and submit a picture of passport. Will that get me thru?

They want either a SSN or an EIN. As an individual, you can get one EIN. If you've already used that, each LLC can gt an EIN

Yes I have 4 LLC's which I have attached to 4 Amazon stores. But I'm looking for a way around the LLC option. I'm looking for the "RUN AND GUN" method described by Aspkin in Amazon ghost. But Amazon ghost gives no insight on the tax interview part.
