Suspended for multiples account managed from the Phillipines
Hi folks,
I have a VA in the Philippines doing some research for me and occasionally purchasing items. I have him setting many Saved searches. So many that I've had to open 4 other accounts. I have my main account that I've had since the 90s.
One of the new ones was suspended and eBay doesn't tell me anything except I pose a risk to the eBay community and they hope I can find another placed to sell online. This also happened right after my VA made a couple bids and two purchases. (Paid for!).
After that, the other three were blocked because they were linked. My main account is still live.
I've called and talked with about 6 reps, calling from each of the accounts. One time I had a rep tell me that the IP address was the trouble. And a solution was to have my VA open up his own eBay account from the Philippines and his own IP address. But I don't want to mess anything up related to his IP address if there's another problem.
So I'm curious -- Is a stealth account the only option I have at this point? I'm assuming that if I try again to open an account with my name and contact info, even if we use a VPN IP address or something, that it'll still be linked.
I still can't believe that they won't even talk with me. I don't think that I violated a policy just by opening accounts and using them out of country?
But maybe I'm missing something.
Any tips? Appreciatively... |
