running amazon and ebay from same laptop
 

Hi I have one laptop and running my amazon on that laptop and also running my friend ebay account from same laptop.
My friend now applied for amazon account too and he given same email address to amazon which he is using for ebay.

my questin is: as i am entering both email addresses"mine for amazon and my friend for ebay" in browers "chrome". this can link amazon accounts or not. can amazon get my friend's email from my laptop "browser cookies, flash objects, fingerprints."?

Tell your friend to get his own laptop. You are actually looking for trouble.

You can set up separate user accounts on the laptop, but you will need separate IP's for each amazon account.

yea. dont risk it mate.

just get a cheap laptop off ebay. 3rd or 4th hand is fine. doesnt need to be new. as long as its reformatted.

Are you using separate user accounts?

Re: running amazon and ebay from same laptop

LINKED ALREADY. One goes down, they goth go down

Re: running amazon and ebay from same laptop
 

with separate user accounts he should be fine though, right?

Re: running amazon and ebay from same laptop
 

NO, he will need separate IP's

Re: running amazon and ebay from same laptop
 

I agree with others.. this is a problem. You'll want to have separate setups for your Amazon accounts otherwise you risk linking (you're probably linked already). It's not worth it.

I am using dongle which gives me new ip every time.
Secondly my friend never use this laptop for his amazon he is using only for ebay but i used it for my amazon with separate user. My worries are about my friend's email address because he used same email and apply for amazon account from an other machine not from this.

Is there any chance amazon got any trace of his email from this laptop.
i mean browser cookies, flash objects, fingerprints. Are these things keeping and transferring this information also e.g. how many email addresses entered on this pc.

Otherwise, there is no IP or mac issue, No multi amazon user signing issue.
