Suspended again
 

Hello everyone!
So I did many attempts to create ebay stealth accounts but all of them got almost instantly suspended.
Here is what I did:
- My Ip is dynamic so i changed it (with changing the mac address) and got a new one.(Which I never used for ebay nor paypal). The address I provided to Ebay and Paypal is in the radius of my IP.
-I'm using Oracle VM Virtualbox.
-For SMS verification I used prepaid phone card valid for my country. Btw I'm from Bulgaria if this matters.
-Activated my Paypal account with VCC. (I did succeed in confirming my identity.)
-Used the same new identity both in Ebay and Paypal. (everything matches).
When I tried to list an item ebay requested me to verify my identity(phone number). I got the code and everything was fine until 30 minutes later I got suspended because Ebay have concerns that I may be posing a risk to their community.
If someone has any idea where I did wrong... I will be very thankful!

P.S. Can Ebay look into your computer hardware and ban your PC parts?
And has anyone heard something of canvas fingerprinting and If it's a thing how it's working?

Just get a cheap smartphone with a plan.

Problem solved

Re: Suspended again
 

The thing is I need way more accounts than one. Subscription plan won't be a solution to me. Is prepaid card the problem?

Re: Suspended again
 

Get 4 phones

It seems your problem is right here:

"For SMS verification I used prepaid phone card valid for my country...."

As Christopher said get a cheap phone, try to create a new Eb account. If everything goes fine get a new one and go on.

Regarding these questions:

Can Ebay look into your computer hardware and ban your PC parts?
And has anyone heard something of canvas fingerprinting and If it's a thing how it's working?

Keep in mind some people say Eb has sophisticated techniques to detect VMs. There is a lot of info in the forum about Web browser fingerprints detection. Just take your time and make a search through the forum.

Re: Suspended again
 

are you signing up for Bulgaria accounts? Or accounts in another country

Re: Suspended again
 

Have you got suspended before?

did you use the same computer and same user as your suspended account?

Re: Suspended again
 

phone #s are distributed by network, like tmobile runs most of the telephone stuff outside of at+t these days, even for cheapo plans like the off carriers

1. I'm signing up for bulgarian accounts.
2. I got suspended before. But I reinstalled my computer with another OS and I was using VM.
3. About the phones in Bulgaria there is no AT&T or Tmobile. Here the cheapest plan is signing a atleast 2 year subscription which is not worth at all.
BTW if there is group in telegram, discord or whatever I would like to join.

Re: Suspended again
 

Virtualbox was the problem.
eBay see your hardware, CPU cores and Graphic card, so it can see it is Virtualbox. = red flag

Re: Suspended again
 

So every time I make new account I have to be with different computer?
I dont think that is the problem. I got suspended 30 minutes after confirming my phone number.

Re: Suspended again
 

Data likely the issue.

Re: Suspended again
 

Data? Can you be more specific?

Re: Suspended again
 

You don't need a new computer with eBay a new user acc is enough.

Re: Suspended again
 

So where is the problem after all. Maybe Using a VM is redflag but the why I got banned after adding my phone number and not before that.

Re: Suspended again
 

are you in BG and use BG ip to create BU ebay account?

Re: Suspended again
 

Hi, did you find a solution ?

Re: Suspended again
 

1 phone or PC can spawn thousands of accounts without a single link if everything else is right.

Re: Suspended again
 

When you open a new account do not list anything for at least 15 days. In that time build your cookies. Add items to your favorites list, browse for different items and after 15 days list 1 low risk, low price item. After you sell it list 2 low risk low price items. And after a month of doing this your account should be solid.

Now the problem is Virtualbox. Last week I created two selling account on Virtual box and all died in 30 minutes . But same method I used on my new laptop without this issue so far.
