Activity: 0% Longevity: 56% | | Bonanza smarter than ebay,Bonanza just suspend me
Hello everyone,
I just got shocked by Bonanza. Here is my story:
I have two bonanza accounts, one legit account and one stealth account.
Recently I focus on running my ebay accounts,not much time to take care my bonanza accounts.
Last month my stealth account was suspended because of owing seller fee.And I let this stealth go.
But I could not log in my legit bonanza since last week,then I contacted bonanza why I could not login .
I got rely from Bonanza who told me my another account owes seller fee and mention my ID of stealth account. I am shocked when reading this email.
How could they know my stealth account? It is impossible to link these two accounts. I run accounts strictly according to eBay Stealth rules.
Also I am running multiple ebay accounts and no any problems.
I do not care my bonanza accounts but wondering how they can definitely know that stealth account is mine. Does bonanza smarter than ebay?
Thank you for any advice

Maybe they have browser fingerprints on it, but since bonanza is so small compared to eBay/Amazon, no one would notice.

you slipped up somewhere. there are a lot of stea.lthers here operating on Bonan.
Bonan may parrot EB in many instances, but will never have the same resources.

It is wired. I only have two accounts, no reason to link.
Even though I made some mistake somewhere(maybe similar selling items), I do not think Bonanza could be so confident to claim that stealth account is mine. No question, Just said you need to pay seller fee of your another account in the email.
I will keep figuring out what is wrong. Maybe I will reply why they say that account is mine.
Thanks guys

James Lee, how did you get in touch with them once your account was suspended because I cant even log into my account at all. When I try to go to contact it says I need to log into my account but I cant log in? The only thing I can think of why my account was cancelled was because some monster beats headphones I had for sale but this are 1000% legit with the receipt showing I bought these last Christmas for my son at Best Buy..so this is a proven legit product and you would think they would contact me first before deleting my account.

I think I have same problem as yours,I could not login at first.
I do not think they delete your account for these headphones you sell. It seems they should contact you or delete your listing first.
My problem is that I did not pay my seller fee for my stealth account,but I do not know why these two accounts linked

I had the same thing :
Hi, Our system recently notified us that a computer used to access your account has been associated with other accounts that have been suspended on Bonanza due to violation of our terms of service ( User Agreement - Bonanza).
We apologize that we are unable to provide further details about the other account(s) involved with this action. In our efforts to keep Bonanza the safest possible marketplace for our buyers and sellers to use, it is our mandate to be proactive in suspending accounts that have been associated in any way with site misconduct. We understand that it may not have been your specific actions that caused this suspension to occur (for example, if other family members logged into your account), but we choose to err on the side of caution in matters of user safety.
If you have any transactions that were in the midst of being processed, please let us know at your earliest convenience and we will be happy to assist you in getting those transactions completed and processed. It is our policy not to notify other users of our suspensions when possible. We strive to keep this matter as private as possible to preserve your reputation on Bonanza.
If you have any further questions, please see our terms of service, which provide complete details about our user policies, including our right to suspend an account at any time.
If you are interested in moving to another marketplace, we recommend ioffer.com or ecrater.com, both of which have strong monthly traffic and a good base of buyers and sellers. eBid.net is a good site for those who wish to deal in the auction format.
We sincerely apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused you.
Let us know if you have any other questions.
Regards
Judy O

What methods are you guys using to keep everything separate?
- Separate User Accounts?
- VMWares?
- Portable Browsers?
- Changing IP?

Same thing happened to me. I have a 100% legit account, and a US stealth account. Both got suspended due to non paying fee (vcc not enough funds). for stealth account, I used 23vc IP, VMware, vcc, and US paypal account linked. Bonanza system is smarter than I thought.
I try again to register new account but was suspended as well. I used all the stealth ways (vmwares, new stealth ip, vcc, new stealth paypal acc) to create but no success.
can anyone have any idea where I slip up? or anyone willing to sell their bonanza account? msg me

it's not that I purposely not paying them fee, is that they randomly make a charge to your card without telling you (even when you are sleeping). And when they can't charge your card, they suspend you. As this is stealth US account, I have no choice but to use a US based vcc for that account, it is not reloadable. And mind you, if I was awake, I would have pay them using my paypal.
back to my questions, even with stealth tactics, bonanza still can detect and link your accounts.

Getting banned on Bonanza reminds me of the line from 8 Mile: "Pff, he got fired from a pizza place".

Bonanza sucks, I was doing quite well, until one idiot decided to open a dispute and then they shut me down completely. I would like to open a stealth account eventually but how do you do that since they ask for your cc info and they"ll know its you from your name? any ideas? anyone ever tried this?
