IP Address Concern

[TheRealist]

Hi- I use 24VC services for my IP Address for several accounts.
Recently- eBay has been asking me to "verify I am not a robot" in order to "protect unauthorized use of their services" by clicking the "Check this Box"

I have not seen this before AND to me it appears that there are extra security measures taken by eBay.

Should I be concerned- Are the IP Addresses perhaps being used simultaneously by different users potentially raising red flags through eBays system?

I pay for this service- but I'd like to know I have an individualized IP only used by me.

Thanks.

No, that's normal.
I get it from my home ip aswell from time to time.

Datacenter IPs are in generall bad since ebay can see it is a proxy.

I've been getting it too lately. Glad to know its not anything on my end. This is tie first I've seen it.

I am using 24vc as well.

It seems 24vc got down from yesterday. While it said connected of SoftEther VPN Client Manager, but made my home IP "disconnect". So I can't open webpages.

Can I say that my 5 accounts are connected to the same wifi?
Of course, them are safe in three years.

There is a huge problem with eBay on this.
Both eBay and PPL have started to detect Datacenter proxies. I am using IPBurger (fresh Dedicated IP at 20$/month).

PPL and ebay are always asking me to make captcha test in order to be sure that I'm not a robot. And then Once I list , I get suspended right away.

So yes there are huge problems. Looking for an answer just like you mate

Please don't post uninformed noob rubbish.

eBay does not ban you because you access through a proxy.
They don't have huge problems with this.
It's rather when you are creating from a datacenter proxy that you get red flags on your account.

Btw, speaking about accessing accounts?
Have these accounts been created lately (I mean no more than 30 days) on a datecenter Proxy?

Thanks

Let's all stop the BS, using vpns and proxies is blacklisted...PERIOD!!!

Don't worry buddy, i know you're struggling with the same problems as I do.
But don't worry we're gonna get through this and come back stronger.

I think mobile IPs are the best way for stealth.

Something like 75% of real users now use mobiles instead of PCs so they cant penalise you for using a 4G IP and you blend in nicely.

Genuine US users have the same option, but most on here (regardless of the flag they fly) are from countries outside of Europe and North America and why they need to use VPNs.

That said, good quality VPNs do exist and still work, you've just got to know where to find them and be willing to pay for them....another problem with on-the-cheap gun and run stealthers.

Does that mean that IPBurger and 24VC are not working anymore!!!

I used them a while ago, worked perfectly for a while and then had issues - might not have been related to them, but decided to use a different more niche VPN supplier, no problems to date.

A lot of the issues are a combination of red flags, like the IP you use.

TO answer your question, this is actually very normal.
I got the captcha from time to time and it's because they thought I'm logging from a new computer.. which I didn't.

The rate in which I am being prompted to verify I am a human is not normal. Is anyone else experiencing this & has a solution been found? I am using IPBurger Dedicated.

For me it's not abnormal.. it's just every time I login to 60% of my accounts.

Best solution I've found is to slide the little puzzle piece over into the slot where they want it to go. I'm doing really good at it. eBay tells me I beat 97-99% of users every time I do the puzzle, lol.

Just do the captcha, after awhile it will be second nature to you.

Having a six step login flow is brutal.. but there's really nothing we can do about it other than not use VPNs.

whoer -> ebay login -> captcha -> confirm your number? -> captcha -> seller hub
