Linking Accounts With The Same VCC/ Credit Card
 

I am such an idiot, I have been doing this for years, but I just made the stupid mistake of paying my ebay fees for 1 stealth account, using the same CC on file with another stealth account. I got an email from eBay letting me know that my credit card was used by another eBay user, and that I should contact them if it wasn't a friend or family member.

Now I know this is dumb .. but I am sure I am not the first person to make this mistake. Does anyone know what is likely to happen? Can I expect immediate problems, or will the accounts just be linked, resulting in both accounts being closed when 1 account has an issue?

Thanks in advance ..

Well they would of linked the account soon enough as if it was a different person why would the same CC be being used..?

I'd start again because they will only limit you or suspend account when your making good sales..

As I always say have account in backup and...


FAIL TO PREPARE, PREPARE TO FAIL

I know what you mean Hdavey ..

I always have a few backup accounts on the go .. and this is what happened, I absent mindedly used the same VCC with one of my main accounts that I have used with one of my backup accounts. I am just wondering if anyone else has been suspended immediately for this, or if it is more likely that the accounts will just now be linked and when one has issues the other will go down as well.

You mean your cousin using his card to pay your fees to help you out...:suspicious: Been done before no dramas

Yeah .. that is right GB .. it was that rascally cousin of mine! Thanks, that makes me feel better, no dramas so far!

Well .. account A has been limited .. and account B is still OK .. let's see how long that lasts?
