"hat"? Can you clarify what may have triggered the manual review?

depends on what she is selling,you should see the sellers who are dropshipping from AMZN ,all have the same pictures copied from AMZN.
so if one of her account sells sushi bazooka with picture copied from AMZN,tons of other sellers have the SAME PICTURE,same description ,the only difference is a few pennies difference in price!

some one reported you,or bot picks up some evidence these accounts are linked but not strong enough to shut them down.so a human will look further

juggling 16 accounts on one piece of hardware-mac,modem,router ,may be you get careless once,or you just too tired and forget to do something,and you said Ebay called you on your private phone?
Folks always said Ebay and Paypal cant see the name on the bank accounts,if they want to,they can.

Considering some of the accounts were never used and did not have bank acct link, that's unlikely the issue.

As much as I don;t want to believe it and have to re-learn the whole process, the most feasible answer so far seems to be the canvas fingerprinting. Any solution suggestions appreciated! Seems to be a debate re: spoofing vs blocking and what add ons to use.

https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/fir...canvasblocker/
addon for firefox
Once installed click on the icon and settings then tick expert mode
and set faking to persistent and tick across all domains
That will spoof one new persistent fingerprint

The default settings change fingerprint every http request which is bad and can easily be detected

Do this for each user account and you should be fine no need to buy 16 computers

(BINGO).

I don't keep track of all my accounts and related information on my phone. I used the iPhone's email app to check messages from each eBay account.

Re: SHOCKED. How did my accounts get linked?? Experienced user
 

so did you finally find out what caused all your 16 accounts pulled?

Re: SHOCKED. How did my accounts get linked?? Experienced user
 

As a computer engineer I might have another answer.

- Even if you reboot your modem over and over again you will have just some IP C class, but not all. Like somebody from New York will not get the same IPs somebody from Chicago will get. Why ? Routers! ISP have routers too. Each IP sets are delivered to a given router. There is a stupid approach to send the same data to 100 routers , so they have routers on each locations. Sometimes they might use IPs like 10.1.1.1 to router the traffic, and a whole state can share the same IP., but it's more comon for Cellphone Networks then for ADSL or whatever.

-There are a lot of malware because of Windows exploits (I know this guy used MAC)

-People even sell onlines hacked Windows machines. You log into one, and you do whatever you want.

-There are also a lot of BOTNETS


Now... those connections, because contain so many old Windows computer (laptops, desktop computers) have a lot of infected computers.

Somebody or a BOTnet from your network made some ebay frauds, and ebay banned all IPs.

from my home connection I can not setup an Adroid phone ... not create an Gmai , i get instant banned, i can't create a facebook account.

Why? A lot of windows machines. But on cellphone network is working. Why the cellphone network is much more clean!? Android is based on LINUX. And it's secured,: you can only install apps from Google Play where they are checked by viruses and so on. (unless you do some crazy thing, root your phone, bla ba bla)

Hope you found the right answer, waiting your reply!

Re: SHOCKED. How did my accounts get linked?? Experienced user
 

this is it here.....

Re: SHOCKED. How did my accounts get linked?? Experienced user
 

So instead of doing that she should of used 4G method?

Re: SHOCKED. How did my accounts get linked?? Experienced user
 

4G or nothing. I don't even trust VPNs for stealthing at this point. Residential IPs are the way to go.

Re: SHOCKED. How did my accounts get linked?? Experienced user
 

Sorry for the delayed response. School took over my life for a bit.

I did not but the 4G suggestion is something I'll look into now that I have time to get back to it all! Thank you all so much for all the support.
