some help regarding tracking

[surplus]

Hi guys.
I'm a long term seller on ebay for 15+ years, many massive accounts with massive feedback.

8 years ago, ebay killed my accounts 1 by 1 and took me 6 month to learn the ways to get around it.
I then found the forums here and bought the stealth guide and it confirmed all what i knew which was great.

Now i can create a new ebay and paypal account fully verified with banks in few hours with ebay selling limits of £10,000 and 1000 items.

Lately, ive had alot of accounts get MC113 requesting info, serious / some concerns ect.. even a brand new account with the same setup on creation.

i found out it was more than likely down to entropay, so ive since not used it anymore. Gone back to tesco virtual cards and paypal created verified account.

However, my main question is.. i "know" ebay can't track accounts if created of the same PC with a NEW windows ID, but im sure they can....?

i bought a new laptop for £179.00 from argos and created a flawless account and its fine. Sold perfect..

I made an account, same method on a banned pc, with a new windows id, same method and banned MC113..

They must be able to ban MAC or something??

so my question, anyone know for a fact , can they track and link "computers" or "devices" if accounts are made on different windows ids, even if signed out correctly.


thanks

Another participants states you MAC cannot be seen by Ebay or PayPal please read below;

hi,

just to help you out. ebay nor any other company can read the mac address of your NIC card. its just not possible.

ive been working as a network engineer for a while, and you can see from the books as well, like CCNA and CCNP books (specialised networking books) that there is no way you can. if there was it would be written in these books.

Thanks guys thats interesting.
However the info about the impossible to read the MAC is incorrect.
I used to work for a company called GAMEPARK online and hosting game servers.
The admin tools allowed us to ban by MAC and serial number.
That was back in 2009 so i imagine there are much more advanced tools.

However, the user was required to download software and connect via a client.
Maybe thats why.
However, banning a PC would be very unfair because the new owner of a PC may get a banned PC when he has done nothing wrong.
Although, xbox can ban a gaming console by the MAC too making it useless.
So its all up in the air at the moment.

The consensus seems to be ( to the best of my understanding ) that they can only obtain mac, serial number, etc. if you download one of their apps.

That's why the stealth guide clearly says never to download ANY software provided by EB, or presumably anyone else you may wish to use these techniques with.

This includes/included turbo lister, or any other such program.

Somebody will certainly correct me if I am wrong, but that's my understanding.
