Default eBay think my account was hacked??

Does anyone know things that trigger eBay to think a third party is using your account? Its my real account but ever since I made a stealth account its happened 3 times (in a week). I got a message saying my account has been compromised and they delete all my live listings and completely delete all orders which is extremely annoying. They also emailed all the people who bought from me saying their details are at risk etc. I know for a fact nobody else is using my account but have no idea why they think someone is.

I can't complain though, I had over £600 fees to pay and eBay deleted that too so now I got away with paying no fees for the past few weeks of sales. They also refunded the 3 buyers who had opened up a case against me (out of ebays money). The items were £285 each. So I basically made a bit of money and didn't even have to send the stock. I guess its what eBay deserves for being stupid as I've told them numerous times that nobody is hacking my account.

Samething happened to me, but after an ebay member reported me as suspicious because I wouldn't sell to them. I called ebay and have to submit documents since for them I don't exist, but i do and now they do phone verification for these types of unauthorized usage, but I updated my number later in life and they want the original number created on the account. Ebay has gone mad.

Yeah I did before creating my stealth account. Does eBay actually pick up on that? So I really need a new computer if I want to make different stealths then? or is it a good idea to make them in different browsers on the same computer?
