hahahah you believe everything minimum wage customer service agent is going to tell you. Clearly agent doesnt have deep comprehension of how ebay's system works.

ebay customer agents are highly skilled professionals , I would not be surprised if they hack into your computer while you talk on the phone with them. they likely already know who you are and it is only a question of time until they come for you

funny ... not ...

Erm guys? You're all being a bit slow here?
If you had any experience with ebay CS via phone you'd know the trust and safety team has access to a system that tells them exactly why an account is banned. You'd also know it's certainly possible to elicit valuable info out of them which they initially refuse to provide which has been vastly useful over the years. Not ALL agents are cage monkeys and the trust and safety agents are the highest trained monkeys of all. Lastly, if you read my thread you'd know what she said to be true, my account creation method involves a single machine ID until now.

For sure CS staff can see a lot of info on the eb account - however many won't do much productive work for the eb suspended user - not like the older times...in general

[sam999]

Yes it's all about getting the right kind of agent, I generally know which to go for.

[Camaro2SS]

agents are not allowed to disclose why your account was suspended

Hello, Ebay's Mc081 is getting more aggressive,often triggered by browser/device fingerprints or reused behaviours patterns. Try full isolation- new device /user agent, real mobile data. And verified identity. Tools like anti-detect browser can help reduce flagging risk now!

Anti-detect browser doesn't really help reduce the flagging

Just get a brand new smartphone Tracfone device for $30, then find eBay after a google search as if you're a shopper lookin for somethin to buy. Then download the app and sign up an account. This also gets you a solid phone #

That's very natural and clean.

If your account stays alive after sign up, then go buy a new laptop for it next from Temu.

Simple and cheap if you're worried about device fingerprints, browsers, Machine IDs or phone #s.

what does Ebay ask for these days to open a new buy account?

I'm confused don't portable browsers work anymore ? I never had to ever buy multiple machines to run ebay accounts back when I was true stealth.

No definitely not for creation unless they are different enough to scramble the webgl and canvas naturally.
Running them is another matter, so far it looks to be okay but..

The exact same thing that they always have; phone number and address after registration.

And this potential suspension after registering even a buyer account really is nothing new as it used to happen many years ago too. I haven't noticed any changes here.

There absolutely are changes, you can see that just looking in the numbers of people complaining about activations and new suspension messages this year.

But these issues only come to light if you try to make multiple accounts on a device.
