eBay Stealth account Suspended!
 

My recent eBay Stealth account which I purchased received this message :

Your account has been suspended because recent account activity has raised serious security concerns. We've taken this precaution to protect our members and the eBay community.

Due to the suspension, you won't be able to use your eBay account in any way. This includes using another existing account or registering a new account.

Any outstanding selling fees are due immediately, and any amounts that you haven't previously disputed will be charged to the billing method currently on file.

We appreciate your understanding.

I've been using a VPN to connect and a new "User account" just for this Stealth account , and browsing as a Guest in my Chrome browser...

What should I do now??

Have you managed or been selling anything on the account?

Just listed Day 3, sold nothing yet...

Actually found out that might be because I was using "Guest" when using Chrome browser, no cookies were saved and eBay can't trust that...

Anyway, seller will replace a Brand new Stealth account for me.. :)

Listing after 3 days may well be the issue

You want to browse ideally for a few weeks before you start to list items. You may also want to check that the VPN that your using is a good VPN

Honestly there's quite a few random reasons this could happen, even within USA and using all normal methods.

I normally let the account sit and browse a little, then list after 1-2 months.

But then I have some backup accounts I can make.

Hey! Thanks for sharing your advice! I'll do that... I have another spare eBay account registered in Singapore, that is my original account.. I'll keep both and start browsing awhile now... :)

If I were you I'd create another 5 accounts right now then another 5 a few weeks later.
