Opening an account Without a SSN possible these days?
Hey guys, I'm a seasonal ebay seller with stealth account.
I've done it prior to eBay needing a SSN account and few years back they started requiring SSN.
I bought the SSN from someone reputable here that no longer offers the service but after hearing about IRS and all the stuff that can link up to me on a legal stand point I'm wondering if there is a way to open an account without the need of SSN these days on Ebay. I've been selling on the account that has the SSN but I spread my eggs across many accounts that probably isn't triggering the IRS to catch their eyes but now I'm starting to worry that they may suspect sooner or later. I make about $5000-$7000 per account a year and I have about 2 accounts with other SSN.
What are your thoughts and any advice would be greatly appreciated

There are some large dealers/corporations selling on Ebay,like APMEX which is the largest precious metal dealer in US,you dont think they will be asked to give the SSN of their CEO,same goes for Best buy,
