Is ebay stealth still possible?
any guides or help i can get? |
Re: Is ebay stealth still possible?
IMO true stealth is no longer possible given you need to provide a real bank account but by using identity theft then yes, creating a bogus account initially is still possible and even used by account seller(s) on this forum. |
Re: Is ebay stealth still possible?
OP, read around the forum for hot topics and pose focused questions |

Re: Is ebay stealth still possible?
In the USA stealth is still possible for eBay although harder than the UK and some other countries. Read around the forum and see what others say.
If you are a US citizen or permanent resident then you can easily get a bank account to use for eBay without committing identity theft as mentioned by a contributor from another country. |

| apologies if I didn't adequately differentiate the two accounts I mentioned in my post clearly enough.
Yes, a real bank account is easy to get but the second account I mentioned is the selling account which, for it to be a stealth account requires unconnected/bogus details and an option is to steal someone elses - like certain account seller(s) on this forum do. Gone are the days where you can simply use a non-existent name and address generator.
So you have your bogus/stealth account but you have your real bank account attached - that's not true stealth as we once knew it.
Then there's the issue of tax accountability in the US. Whist unfamiliar to me from what I've read here it doesn't take too many sales before things start to get awkward.
Would I look to create a meaningful long term selling account with stolen identities, nope. That was great for disposable accounts in the days of paypal but MP has now crippled that game.
True stealth is dead. Take this forum as an indicator. It use to be a hive of activity from many new and old members about how to make easy money happily sailing under the radar. Now its a mere handful of folk desperately trying to hang on to what they've got.
Maybe it's time to redefine 'stealth'... |

| Not stealth / and or sell with throwaway accounts. But you can get back on in my opinion and have a single long term account if you run a sensible business selling items that don't violate policies. You can always open a business account and attach details of your LTD company. May be even give a partner a share and use there details so your previously banned name / address isn't associated to the account at all.
If you want to do things legal and above board there are ways to get passed previous bans. But to create 50-100 throw away accounts to sell vero or digital items like people did back in the days before MP. Forget about it. |

Re: Is ebay stealth still possible?
yes its still possible we have over 50 accounts |
| degsey69 | 06-07-2023 06:00 PM |
Re: Is ebay stealth still possible?
Do you have any USA stealth accounts?
You can do stealth for selling there with anybody who has a SSN, you can put the correct details of the seller into MP on multiple accounts including your bank account details, as it does not report back to eBay as confirmed by other contributors here. You have the same hurdles to jump as before without getting the name and address on the stealth account verified when required.
Stealth without id theft is very achievable.
The forum is still very active, as other selling platforms appear to need stealth accounts, such as Etsy, Mercari and Amazon. It used to be about eBay PayPal and Amazon years ago, PayPal has fallen off and others are taking its place. Quote:

no i don’t have any, I’m currently trying to get back into Ebay. I achieved Mercari stealth successfully and been using that for right now. |

Re: Is ebay stealth still possible?
My thread was not aimed at you, it was for HANK as his post is very misleading.
Follow the stealth rules on eBay, what ever name and address you have for the account you do not need to use it for MP your actual real details name, address, SSN, bank etc. That keeps you legal and when the 1099 comes out it’s in your name. |

No it's not.
In any event I compared it to the heyday. Maybe we should redefine 'active'. :thumb: |

Re: Is ebay stealth still possible?
Hank stop being a bully on here to me and others, you can disagree but do not attack other contributors who have differing opinions.
You say this forum has less people posting, if that is true, don’t you think your aggressive style of reply drives them away.
Remember when a person has a problem, they do not need to have it compounded with snarky clever remarks. Quote:

| Grow a pair, it's not bullying, we're all anonymous here and there's no threat to your well-being.
If you don't like having your errors corrected then don't post misleading advice, some of which is downright wrong.
The irony of you calling me a bully for replying to your post where you wrongly stated my post was misleading isn't lost on me. I even apologised earlier to you because you misunderstood my post and went to the trouble of clarifying it for you. But I can handle it, no fragile feelings here. :yar:
I won't stop giving the best advice I can nor correcting blatant errors. Creating and maintaining accounts is hard enough and folk need to move forward with their eyes very wide open. You have to option to ignore my posts if you wish. |

Re: Is ebay stealth still possible?
The idea stealth is dead is false.
If you wanted 100% stealth as in a made up name, f*ke details for banking, etc then you're already implying whatever you do is not something intended to last more than 3 months at a time. For anyone selling on eBay pre 2019, once you upgraded Paypal to business you are providing EIN, which then implies what exactly? You had f*ke name but real business, it is stealth with the purpose of being able to sell.
Right now if you don't understand how to use stealth measures you cannot sell on eBay after getting suspended. If you know how to navigate correctly you can. Therefore stealth is not dead, it is just an advanced version. You are using your real name, so in theory its not stealth by definition but anyone serious about selling long term never should have worried about this anyways. It is something we all have dealt with in Paypal, now it's just on eBay. |

So what about the ebay accounts linked with payoneer that they sell?
Are they linked with a real person's id or ⊗⊗⊗⊗ id? |

Re: Is ebay stealth still possible?
You just proved my point entirely Hank, you just needle people if you do not agree with them, the errors as you point out is a disagreement on subject, calling them errors is a put down, that is classic bullying technique.
I would have thought that you should grow a bigger pair, give advice and respect others, it’s not hard Quote:

| Nope, you regularly post incorrect advice and factual errors. Some advice you've given recently has been truly awful, I simply cannot sit by and let it slide simply because I might hurt your delicate feelings.
I will continue to correct them, kinda the purpose of this forum wouldn't you say. |

Re: Is ebay stealth still possible?
Actually your advice has been cr*p recently, I have been doing this too long too successfully to have personal attacks from you on this forum.
Just keep showing yourself up as you do, no wonder we lose contributors with members who are basically sh*ts when people ask for help.
As I said before your posts prove you bully |
