I agree about the phone number. When I started selling on Amazon with real info on my 10 yr old account they called me at least three times at night asking stupid questions, on different dates.

Even be careful of adding a new SKU with same items.
Sorry to hear you got caught.

Amazon now seem to call you rather than e mail you. All my numbers are on divert and amazon UK via Eire is calling me at 3am. My phone is silent but at least the phone is ringing showing its active.

I think once they found those suspicious accounts, they might have called me and found the numbers were not exist. But if you have 10 accounts how can you manage those numbers? Keep them activated and pay monthly fee? That costs you a lot.

I'm running 10 numbers right now that i pay 5 bucks a pop for... in business with worth the small fee to keep a good account active. The only problem i have is when amazon or eBay calls i don't know what account they are talking about until they mention the name on said account...

Why don't you use dongle, Static IP( Fresh IP VPN) etc--Mix up. It may cost you more but worthy for business. Also try to use Vmware/Parallel and different user account. Also you can use portable browser. hope it will help you @Koobar

Might I suggest a different VPS for each account in the future? Also, you MUST keep a working phone number on file!

I know it was Amazon that called, because I reverse-searched the number. | It's a problem if Amazon is calling you and you have no idea which account is about. What should I do?

What virtual phone do you guys use? I just bought a virtual number, but I don't know whether amazon can ring through, because I heard many virtual numbers just don't work for amazon. Do you guys have any idea to let amazon call me?

But if you want my opinion, stay away from VOIP/forwarding, and get some phone #'s from the major carriers in your area.
