How to operate an account in france, knowing you're in the UK?

tinnt · #1 09-16-2012

Hey guys,
I have a question.

How can I login with 2 of my stealth accounts in France, if I'm in the UK for 3 months. Is there any way to fool eBay to think that I'm in France? I've heard about getting a proxy, but I'm not sure how that works. Is there an economical way to do this? Can somebody explain it to me?

By the way, this is a great forum. And a great community!

Bonjour mon amis

Have you got a computer in France that can be left on 24/7?

Yes= remote desktop
No= not sure of a 100% reliable answer

Salut!

I suggest you use Strongvpn or VPS

1. Remote desktop access is good.
2. You could call up eb or pp and explain that you will go travelling - if you are ready with ID.

Imagine!

Being sensible like that.

Ideally a call to ebay/paypal should be made.

Any plan has to allow for equipment failure

Yes you can send them a copy of your travel itinerary and some postcards

I'm waiting for yours, sax.

Let's be practical for a moment.

Does anyone except ebay/paypal thinks users are going to be stuck at home all year just to use the internet?

Daft if they do. If a user is going away, they can make suitable & sensible plans for usgae of their accounts.

That is not limited to using vps/VPN

Control ebay. dont have them control you
