So guilt by association? Does eBay restrict people who know someone who got banned? Or do they ban the account due to suspicion that it might be operated by the same person?

I wasn’t aware of this restriction happening to me then and now it’s happened and they have blocked his account down to all because off my stupid ass


I really want to get back on again with a stealth account and I want to give him one to but it looks like it I’m not.

eBay went digging and found the IP commonly shared quite likely :(

What kind of "ebay account bulls**t" were you doing?

Time to learn stealth and teach your cousin stealth

Well I need to find out how does eBay link accounts first then I can give him one or more.


We both often go to each other’s houses and we use the same internet which means they tracked us down.


And we are being treated like ****in criminals by eBay. So now we want to f**k eBay over with these stealth accounts.

"f**king eBay over" is not what stealth accounts are made for, and you aren't going to be successful if that's your intent. eBay knows about stealth accounts and they know how to deal with bad sellers who try to defraud eBay.

You can use stealth accounts to peacefully resume your e-commerce career and make some more money. You cannot use stealth accounts to "f**k eBay". You're just going to end up with a lot of money locked up in a Paypal account which you may or may not be able to withdraw after 180 days, if you're going to try using stealth accounts to defraud eBay.

Don't approach business with a "Fk you platform-used-for-business" model. Doesn't work for the long term.

"we both often go to each other's houses"....yes, a huge link factor

I’m not trying to defraud eBay I was a good ebayer until eBay done this to me and I have tried multiple times to get my original account back but it’s not working. Also I’m not going to use these stealth accounts like a payback revenge im just peed off atm because I can’t find the correct answer how do they link accounts.

I get you - it's annoying to see a good account go down because of linking.

There are numerous ways eb can link accounts - again, the sharing of IP "often" as you said is likely the reason in your case.

There are tons of ways they link accounts, with some methods being more obvious than others.

Common billing address, common return address, browser cookies not kept properly separated, etc..

Frankly the chances of you and your cousin being linked solely by a common IP are very slim. I run 2 or 3 accounts on a lot of my VPN connections and it's never caused any of my accounts to be linked. I think there was another commonality between the two accounts that you're overlooking.

Have you ever logged into your account on your cousins device? Or the other way around?

I recently started a another thread I don't know if you have seen it few guys are saying on there if I'm based in the UK which I am their is no need for VPN which they recommend. And just to restart my device to factory settings and start with a private browser like Firefox and use different details...


No I haven't logged into his Ebay account ever like I said he comes to my house & i go to his house to and on our devices we connect to each other's broadband and I think that's how Ebay tracked our accounts.
