Shut Down Again
 

Hey guys, I have gone through several accounts and they all keep getting shut down and deleted. I have bought the book and I used to have no problem making accounts, its just all of a sudden that they are getting shut down. I'll try to describe my process to see if anything I am doing is setting off flags:

First I make a brand new VM running windows 7 with network settings at bridged. Install SMAC and firefox and spoof the MAC address of the host machine and the virtual machine. I buy a virtual credit card from a legit seller on the forums and use tracfone and google voice for my telephone verification. I use gmail for my email and pick a random address that matches my telephone number to use for the address. I make my amazon seller account and list an extremely low risk item (book, pencils, stuffed animal).

I used to wait about 2-3 days then start listing my inventory but now 24 hours after each account I make they get shut down and deleted. Any ideas or solutions?

Thanks

1. What is your "inventory"?

2. Why not use a real address like a UPS store box? Not a random address.

3. Try making your next account at your local Mcdonalds or Starbucks to see if maybe your network is the problem that's getting you caught. I've used both for over a year with no problems.

1. My inventory is used electronics like audio receivers, blue tooth headsets, keyboards, cameras, etc. Seeing as how the suspension comes before I list my inventory I doubt it is my inventory causing the problem.

2. I haven't tried that. Could I just find a UPS stores address and make up a box number or would you recommend actually getting a box for the account?

3. I could try that as a test but in the long run I'd prefer to be able to manage the account from home seeing as having to go to starbucks/mcdonalds every day may get annoying.

Thanks for the help so far, I'll let you know how my next account goes using the UPS store address.

Try making them from starbucks or mcdonalds. What are you using for credit card?

Virtual cards are not as good as they used to be.:violin:

no need for you to use smac to spook your vm mac address, if you are creating a new vm for each new account then the mac address created is not atall likely to be the same as anyone you have used before.

i dont know about the US but here in the uk it is best to use a legitimate address and name that match.

were you able to overcome the problem? what was the problem?
