suspended right after registration
 

I have had no problems opening stealth accounts on Amazon until today. I was registering my account and right when I confirmed everything it took me to the homepage and my account status shows suspended (Review) right away.

Hello,

Thank you for registering to sell on Amazon.com. We are conducting a review of your account in order to comply with applicable law related to commercial transactions. You will be unable to sell on our site until our review is complete.

If you do not hear from us again within the next two business days, please contact us a seller-confirmation@amazon.com We appreciate your patience in the interim.


Like I said, I have never had problems opening stealth accounts until now. Is this something new they are doing? Anyone had this problem before?

Re: suspended right after registration
 

What are your steps when opening an account?

Re: suspended right after registration
 

They're all the correct steps. I don't want to go through all the steps. I have been opening stealth accounts for years. This is the first time I've had this issue. I noticed Amazon changed they're layout when opening accounts up

Re: suspended right after registration
 

Was anything changed in your procedures?

Scary to say the least.

:spy:

Re: suspended right after registration
 

Nope. Everything was the same. New address. New VCC. New EIN. different Internet.

Re: suspended right after registration
 

Could it be that they just *randomly* put new accounts in for review right away? Try making another account and see if it happens again. Then I'd be worried.

Happened to me as well. It baffled my mind, it never happened before.

Re: suspended right after registration
 

Where you guys using a gift card or VCC?

Re: suspended right after registration
 

While this has not happened to me, I also have never seen the address:

seller-confirmation@amazon.com

Re: suspended right after registration
 

I bought a VCC. And yes it's the first time I've seen the email address.

Hey munkron. Did they ever release your account?

Re: suspended right after registration
 

Did you insert your banking information yet? They could being going through all the necessary steps on their end to confirm everything 100% before letting you sell on day 1. This new delay could be built in to possibly deal with high volume of seller accounts being opened on a specific week or month - basically needing extra time to get caught up. That's absolutely just speculation but hopefully this is no need for too much concern. You might be able to give us a nice update in a day or two saying they let you in door no problem ;-)

Re: suspended right after registration
 

well , this is a new one

my best guess is that the account got red flagged by the bots due to use of suspicious personal details , most likely credit card.eventually if you buy card details from someone it is likely they are not using regular physical cards issued by banks but something that it is easier to obtain and where quantities can be obtained without problems. , such providers can easily be identified and blocked

Re: suspended right after registration
 

Most likely the IP you used.

What provider are you using?

Re: suspended right after registration
 

I purchased my VCC cards from here. I've been using with no problems.

I'm using an Ipad with Verizon. The IP address resets when you turn the device on and off so it resets it to a new IP. I have 4 stealth accounts right now on 4 different ipad devices right now. the 5th stealth account was suspended right away.

should I contact seller performance? or wait a couple more days?

Re: suspended right after registration
 

It may get a new IP, but it could get one that has been used before. Are you notating all IPs when logging in? I just create a text file with a list of accounts and IPs and when I reset the router, I copy the IP and then search my text file to see if it has been used. Don't assume you will never get the same IP again

Re: suspended right after registration
 

No. Don't got time for that. I've been doing this for years. If it were the same IP I think I would have gotten an email stating my account has been linked.

Re: suspended right after registration
 

Is the Ipad you're using 'clean'?

Maybe the VCC you bought has been used before?

I suspect its an Ip address issue though...

Re: suspended right after registration
 

It doesnt take a lot of time.

Reset Router

IP Burger copy Ip

Search your text file for same IP

Paste new IP in account you are logging into

Your'e assuming the other account would be linked with same IP, but maybe it is a bot that sees same IP on a different account and triggers the instant review

Re: suspended right after registration
 

I'm 90% certain its an IP issue. Its just a roll of the dice with public shared IPs. I've had IP providers that do that very same thing immediately after registering. Switching providers solved the issue.

If you have that many accounts shuffling the same provider IPs, you gotta keep track of them. Since you're not sure which IPs has been used on which account, I would get a new device on a different network and start logging the IPs down from the start :spy:
