Activity: 0% Longevity: 77% | | Fully stealth Amazon account got canned after adding kroger checking account
Here is the break down
Amazon account was opened for 2 1/2 months
Last month sold about $80
verified with SSN about a month ago
No negs, no problems
Basic stuff is all good too:
New OS on vm virtualbox, New phone (google phone), Kroger prepaid card, New address, New IP, Spoofed mac.
Account was in good standing. I got an email from AZ to add checking account for the deposit and as soon as I punched in the numbers (Kroger checking # that is attached to the prepaid card) I got that yellow bar on top saying that the account was suspended and to refer to a letter that they send me.
Well there was no letter so I decided to wait until the morning. When I woke up today and checked on it account it was deleted (can't log in)
Does anyone one have any words of advise? I believe that there is a problem with Kroger. Honestly I can't think of anything else.

I've had that happen to me before to ...
If I can ask, was your state location that you registered under different from the state of your checking account routing number?

Another thing Kroger is using ACH and the names are different. In fact I just wrote AmazonServices Deposit for the Checking account holder's name. But I doubt that this would cause an immediate deletion of the account. Suspension, maybe, but not an immediate deletion.
And I have another account with the same kind of jibber jabber for the holders name but with US Bank.
That last one is working fine.

What kind of a cc do you have on the account? Is it still valid for a test charge that Az likes to do whenever you start doing banking actions?

there was like $15 on the card. Yes card is one number and routing and checking account number another, but both attached to each other.

I am planning to add BOA checking accounts to my ghost accounts, ghost accounts registered for different states
did you call to amazon, it's really scarry, they are just stealing money, I think Amazon reputation should go down for these activities

Lets keep this focused to the Kroger discussion - could well be that Amazon knows that the card is not a real bank account.

At the remote chance of bank accounts needing to be in the same state.
Were your items sold in the same category as before?
NB, I am taking into account you are familiar with amazon's ways.
I'm crossing off my own mental check list.
rsot covered sufficient funds on the card for a debit.

There was one item sold and the rest is general house hold stuff.
AZ took in all the registration information just fine and was operating normally, but the second (literally the same second) I added the Kroger checking account into and clicked submit next page told me that I got suspended and when I tried to log in next day it was deleted.
Is anyone running successfully running on Kroger right now?

I am really doubting this - would be more logical if Az knows that the Kroger account is a prepaid card and not a typical bank account

Do you use a mac or pc? | |

the answer here is simple, Amazon has flagged Kroger, i is not a real bank and therefore is a violation.

So that's not it and makes me to believe that AZ couldn't ban US Bank accounts all together, unless this black listed that specific routing number that is used for Kroger accounts.
So far a narrowed it down to 2 possibles.
someone already use AmazonService Deposit and a banned account and this was the problem or AZ can see the name mismatch on those accouts.
Orrr, AZ blocke the routing number altogether!
IS anyone currently running on Kroger?

Banks that dont accept stealth deposits have been discussed ad nauseum
