Question about Amazon Ghost
 

My account was closed today after many years. I was not selling I was simply buying items. I let a friend of mine use my billing address and my CC to open an account ( i know that was the worst thing i could of done, the account was closed) But what's done is done.

Im Just looking to get back Amazon to buy items i need not looking to sell anything. Does Amazon Ghost teach what addresses to use for getting shipments? or what billing addresses i can use? That's all im looking for. Thanks for the answers. I have a VPS i can use for this so im not worried about that. Thank you

Only one way to find out Richard! Either way you'll learn a lot of valuable information ;)

Did you friend use your name also for the goods to be delivered? If not try and open an account in your name with a different CC.

Have you another credit card and if your friend used your name.

Make up a name but use the same address, different IP would be better. Amazon don't check names on credit cards when authorising them, just number,exp date and CVV. Multiple people have accounts in one residence. If rejected explain the other account was a lodger who has now left.

Yes he used the same name and address.

I ended using my LLC and opened it under that name. And im going to be opening a Postal Annex box just to avoid using same address and getting the account closed. Using a VPS as well. As for CC i used entropay and put a prepaid card. So no link to me ( I bought the guide too) But here's something that maybe you guys can help me with. When trying to add a bank account on Amazon it now asks for driver license number. What can I do to get around that? Also If i wanted to add one of my CC's will it matter if the address is the same as from the old account? I can imagine they will link it to the old account

Never come across requesting a DL number before, maybe its just on the buyers side. However just email amazon and say you don't drive.
Regarding the CC this will link you, maybe add the CC with a different address but within the zip code area. The CC should never have been used on amazon.

Yes they ask for it, see picture

If i say i dont drive they will still want my ID number. They will want to verify who I am regardless. The CC is not a problem since i added an entropay CC its the bank account that im not sure how to add without it asking for my DL

Re: Question about Amazon Ghost
 

But you say you only want to buy from amazon, why do you need a bank account when you can pay with CC. I have a buying account and never entered a bank account.

Re: Question about Amazon Ghost
 

Yes true, But it would be nice to to have the option to be able to sell in the near future. Oh well

Could use a po box, no?

Re: Question about Amazon Ghost
 

That's not the issue, Its the fact that I cant add a bank account since it asks for drivers license number. All i can add is a VCC
