Is there an update coming for Stealth Guide?
 

Hello community,

I want to know please If I'm the only one facing problems with creating US stealth accounts or is it general?

Are there big changes in ebay bots? Actually, Everytime I try to create a new stealth account I get an indefinite and permanent suspension.

Are there any updates coming in the eBay stealth guide to get adapted to these new changes ??

It has been more than 2 months that I'm struggling guys. Any advice or help for a newbie like me would be very helpful.

Thanks for your support.

Maybe you could list on how you created your accounts - maybe we can figure out how to specifically help you.

Thank you WEI for your answer,

First off all I am living in Morocco and I followed all the steps within the stealth guide. So I took a fresh dedicated US IP from IPBURGER.
New real address, New VCC, New VBA, New phone number (Google Voice).

I've chosen Google Voice because I am living in Morocco, and this is the only way I found to have a US phone number from abroad.
I warmed the account for more than 45 days (browsing+watching+Adding to cart)

Once I list my first time I get suspended in less than an hour.

I called eBay after the first suspension and they reinstated my account. I relisted after getting my account reinstated, and this time eBay suspended me once again. I called them but the agent told me that this time the suspension is indefinite and I can't appeal to that.

P-S : The items I list are located within the US.

Thank you for your help.

You should definitely change the Phone Number you used.
Find someone who can help you on verifying the phone number via real, non-voip phone numbers. check our the accounts services section - im sure there's someone offering this service.
Or to save your from all the hassle, buy ready made stealth accounts.
Goodluck on this.

Hi Ebayorbust,

Thank you for your comment.
If neither of these is the problem? Then, what is the problem in your opinion?
What Am I doing wrong?
Besides, when you're telling me that buying a premade account won't sort it either?
Does it mean there is no solution? Even if I buy premade accounts, I will still get suspensions. I'm doing everything that is described in the guide
Kind of confused... :s:s

P-S : I'm kind of new to the forum, so I didn't understand the OP world you mentioned

Once again thanks for your help.

Re: Is there an update coming for Stealth Guide?
 

It's a combination of what you are selling, how you are selling it and how you are accessing the account.

The second suspension and failure to get reinstated mostly affects accounts where they are being operated from overseas ie you trying to run a US account from Malaysia.

Re: Is there an update coming for Stealth Guide?
 

Hey dude, don't be salty. I didn't PM the OP-ask him!.
I was just trying to help figure out his problem.
And i believe you cannot shed a light on this since you are only focusing on making UK accounts. :doh:

Re: Is there an update coming for Stealth Guide?
 

Yeah, and I still couldn't find anybody that is giving us a clear vision about what is happening... :confused::confused::confused:

Re: Is there an update coming for Stealth Guide?
 

Try making USA accounts so you can comment on this.
UK accounts are waaaay too easy to create and manage than USA accounts.
There's still a way for USA accounts,

1 out of 10 USA accounts I created got a temp suspension for a reason i'm not sure yet, so i myself is trying to figure this out.
:attention:

Re: Is there an update coming for Stealth Guide?
 

Yes, that's exactly my situation. I actually run a US account from Morocco.
But I always access to this account through a US fresh dedicated IPburger that I pay 20$/month, under a new user account in firefox with the IPVPNBURGER add-on.

Are you trying to tell me that there is a problem with IPBURGER services for overseas countries?

Because, if this is really specific to overseas countries, that means that even by using IPBURGER they can track your original country...

P-S : The first item that I listed before getting the first suspension is located in the US, and also the second one for which I got the indefinite suspension. Price less than 10$.

Once again, thanks a lot ebayorbust for your help. Having advices from experienced guys like you is priceless.

Re: Is there an update coming for Stealth Guide?
 

Guys I'm kind of confused...
Is what ebayorbust saying is not correct about the overseas comment???

Re: Is there an update coming for Stealth Guide?
 

Hello Wei,
Please is this the limits eBay gave once you created the account or did you call them to lift the limits?
because any time I try to create a US account, I get 5 items as a limit ?

Re: Is there an update coming for Stealth Guide?
 

Yes, that's what i got when i created the account. As you can see that account has ZERO feedback, it means - it's NEW.
I do not call to raise limits, i just wait eBay to automatically increase my selling limits.
There's definitely a flaw on how you create your accounts. Better to try out some other methods to create your accounts.
It could the phone number provider, the IP, the VCC you used, etc. A lot of factors actually. And make sure your IP is not leaking since you're not from USA.
Best of luck :thumb:

Don't be cryptic, tell the op your dirty little secret :ranger:

Re: Is there an update coming for Stealth Guide?
 

Anyone else? :bored:

Re: Is there an update coming for Stealth Guide?
 

Hi Wei,

Can you define new please? Brand new accounts usually have a user icon next to the feedback number to designate it’s a newly created account. When did you create it and when did you make that sale?

Re: Is there an update coming for Stealth Guide?
 

Ah, I considered this as new since it got no sales/feedbacks - no activity on selling.
This was actually moth old. The 1st sale was made last week.
Sorry for the confusion.

Re: Is there an update coming for Stealth Guide?
 

Do you mean 1 month of age?
If so, does it mean that you have created the account one month ago , didn't list anything until last week. And once you listed, you saw that you have a 1000 limits on items?

Thanks a lot Wei for your help.

If it's not about waiting, what is the problem then? :D
