Is Amazon now suspending full ip ranges
 

I have had a few accounts suspended after Jan. 1 and every time I open a new acct. using same ip range i.e. 123.12.xxx.xxx it gets suspended.

I use a couple of broadbands usb sticks that change ip range every time but the 1st 2 sets of numbers stay same i.e. 123.12.xxx.xxx.

I opened two accts. back 2 back: 1 with dialup with totally different ip address which is still open & 1 with a dongle with a similiar ip range in the first two sets of digits which was closed within two hours.

I think amazon is now blocking new accts. that even have the first set of digits 333.xxx.xx.xxx the same.

Any thoughts? Thanks in advance:)

LOL this has been talked about before. Especially if you are selling the same items that other blocked accounts have been selling. I have been trying to master an AMAZON STEALTH for months and even if I get 3 running they never survive the 30 day hold!(it hurts)

Yeah I make sure to start my listings on new accts. in new categories that are crazy like fish Viagra but after Jan 1 they are getting blocked so I think now they are linking any part of a similar ip with a new acct.

I`m going to try this....
SUPER STEALTH :)
New Laptop
New Broadband Dongle
New C Card and Sim
New address

Surely this will fly!

Its not so super.... A laptop isn't needed!

are you sure this is an ip problem?

I can't imagine they'd ban you even after you changed it up so many times...

Yeah I live overseas so they are blocking the entire ip range from 2 of my isps. I tried a overseas isp that I never used before and I created an account without any issues.
