Risky names?

[Hrad]

Hi all, I couldn't find a similar thread.

I'm wondering - are there such things as risky eBay names? Can you get veroed for having a name such as "louise vuitton" or something? I know it's not the exact term "Louis Vuitton" so it's not technically owned by that company, but I imagine that if they were to report you eBay would find it fishy you are using such a name.

Anyone ever had this sort of thing happen? I just ask because I was doing my usual cool/interesting username search and came across a few of these types. I wouldn't be selling anything to do with them though, just figured they might be memorable enough to get return customers

Thoughts?

You mean angry customers will remember the name more as well? Well that's true...but I mean if a customer is on a mission to ruin your life it's really not hard for them to just check the email they got when sending you payment/winning your item.

Anyone else think anything?

I think you would be better off with a funny or witty name if you are trying to get noticed. Those are the ones I tend to remember.

Doing what you are proposing would bring unnecessary attention to your account, and that is not what we are trying to achieve with stealth.
