Fingerprints

Starship · #1 10-11-2023

Does anyone know how to hide fingerprints? Amazon has me strongly linked with fingerprints to another account, how much do they care? Can I continue operating or should I withdrawal funds and abandon account

browser fingerprints? you can use different browser under different user profile - one out of a few approaches

What about the machines physical hardware?

I use virtual machines, how to hide?

I got a report and was strongly linked via fingerprints to another one of my accounts

So far both are still active

for Amazon accounts different physical machines shall be used.

That is absolutely true!

In the past I have used a VPS for Amazon to limit being associated with my PC.

Some contributors on here say not to change the PC and others like me say one PC per account.

VPS = death wish

People who swears by 1 pc = 100 amazon accounts don't know what the hell they are talking about.

Sure it may work for a while... until it won't then either they'll realize they are wrong or they'll double down and blame it on something else completely unrelated.

stop messing with browser finger prints, read the Amazon Ghost to start and listen to people here saying 1 PC = 1 amazon account.

This is the safest way.

Using a VPS risks linking you to anyone else using the same system

Dual booting a PC with different operating systems will give you different fingerprints, except win 10, 11 which give the same. So you could dual boot win 7, 11, and various linuxs with different kernals and get different prints on each. Though microsoft has "persuraded" the big processor manufacturers like intel and amd to make it difficult to dual boot in recent years. You coud install them in a VM and get different prints, amazon will know you're using a VM, but in my experience amazon doesn't care too much about using a vm for some reason(perhaps due to the increased use of cloud computing). Paypal on the other hand don't like VM users. Further more using chrome and firefox will give you different prints. Any browser based on either chrome or firefox will give off prints the same as what its based on. I.e Mircosoft edge will give off prints like chrome.

I have not come across anti detect software/browser/plugin that hides all fingerprints even though they claim too. Since around 2017 its been difficult.

go to browserleaks.com on various browsers and you'll see the same fingerprints coming out(or different for chrome vs firefox / win 7 vs 11)

How do you know Amazon have you linked via fingerprints?

If you were breaching their terms then they'd suspend you wouldn't they, if they were happy you'd never know.

Confused???

I believe, and hope, this is true. I operate all my accounts using VMWare and have had absolutely no issues.

Those who sell accounts here surely cannot be using a new PC for each account they create.

Just as I said, from experience VPS worked for me, I believe in one PC per account, others say not, the opinion on that is split.

You basically reformat the hard drive completely clean. 100% wipe, then you can make or use a new amazon account on that PC

Right, I'm reinforcing your statement of 1 PC = 1 amazon

While this is true I'm more concerned about being linked to my OWN accounts.

Randomly being unlucky and getting linked to another suspended seller and having 1 account suspended as a result is crappy, but not the end of the world. Having all your own accounts somehow linked to each other and them all going down at once is game over.

Yep, agreed with this. Either way sucks to be linked.

But at least linked to an unrelated account some times you can appeal it and you only lose 1 account compared to multiple accounts of your own.

So yes, agreed

Insider reports will show you all annotations on your account

What devices are cheap and easy to run many accounts

Also is it feasible to run 40+ devices in an office

Vmware with the same windows doesn’t work 100%. Amazon has fingerprints of this

That doesn't change the hardware ID, indeed I'd say it is less secure than using VMWare because they do actually give each machine unique hardware ID's.

But I guess it's the only option you have if you only use one PC, can't say I'd be too keen, it must be a right pain in the rear end.

sigh... I'm telling you... reformatting and reinstalling your OS works perfectly...

like SaiJin said, you might even find cheaper than 300
