Ebay suspended, even though account had no activity

[btnt]

Hi, I made an Ebay account on new IP for stealth. I've never been banned on ebay before. I was using an RDP with Firefox Portable.

I made an account, added name, linked paypal, added address, phone, you know the basics. Then I left the account alone - I didn't browse, purchase, or sell.

Then about 2 days ago I got an email saying that the account was suspended due to recent activity (what activity??)

I am thinking it's the IP but my friend used the same RDP company and has a very good ebay account with high selling limit.

Does anyone have any ideas on this mysterious suspension? It can't be linked to another of my ebay accounts as I have never had a banned ebay, mainly just banned paypals.

I guess your computer has been detected

happens a lot when you use made up addresses and low quality phone numbers.

I have a separate pc for stealth accounts. I do not allow anybody to use it neither go on anything but stealth accounts. You can pick up cheap pc off eBay for £50. I spent £30 upgrading it so it was fast enough. I usually tether off iPhone or another mobile phone on this pc. I don’t use my regular isp.

I agree, I believe this may be the cause. The address is real but for some reason it doesn't show up on many automated address sites. It shows up just fine on Google Maps though.

that could be a problem, its all automated. if it doesn't show up on some systems, it might not show up on ebay's
