SUSPENDED! Right before Christmas,
 

Hi

I am new here and have been reading alot of the post on here although I am certain the info is here somewhere I have may have overlooked it or maybe misunderstood a post.
I have been suspended from ebay/paypal and it was not clear WHY I was suspended, it provided a link that gave possible reasons WHY I was suspended. Wehn I called Ebay, I was transferred and hung up on three times. Finally, I spoke with a lady that said the suspension is indefinately and the only thing she could tell me was that and anything else would come in the form of email.

Moving forward, I did some research online and found out that I needed to do a few things before opening up a new ebay acct, to ensure my acct wont be supsended. So, I changed my ISP. Previously I had virginmobile 2go and now I have charter cable internet. Also, I have a very close friend <not relative> that I trust more than my own siblings that is going to allow me to put my accounts in her name. These accounts will include a savings account which I will need to have earnings deposited, a walmart debit account to pay ebay seller fee's and her physical address which is a town away from mine.

Q: Do you suppose she can be linked back to me merely because we are friends? Should I remove her from my online social networks or will that matter? I read that ebay/paypal retreive there information from many sources do any of you know for sure who those sources are. I read it is the ISP, NSP, social networks, banking accounts and other sources. Is there a way to limit my personal information from being passed around?

Anything else I should do before I register a new acct?

You need to either read a lot more around the forums or/AND get the stealth guide. You are expecting the answers given to you when, in fact, I have found that understanding the principles for yourself leads to a MUCH better business model and longetivity on eb/pp. All the best.

all im going to add to this is do not use your friends, relatives, hairdressers, etc, info to set up an account. its just asking for trouble

I apologize I assumed it was ok to ask questions here.
I have been reading the post, I just thought I'd jump in and ask while I was spending time reading.
Thanks anyways

so why were you suspended. It should explain that to you. If you get back on then its kinda worthless if you dont fix why you got suspended in the 1st place.

What did the email say?

@jaja - it's ok to ask the q - good that you are reading the guide.

1st point - calling up eb before you understand linking principles and why you are suspended is kind of pointless.

2nd point - Changing ISP is good. Everything new is GOOD. eB can't tell she is your friend unless YOU tell them. Yes they search info but not as bad as you think.

If you have q's on the set-up process, feel free to post step by step for forum confirmation. All the best.

Even calling them on the wrong phone number could have ruined your chances for reinstatement.

dont think that applies anymore, I can from the SAME NUMBER everytime

I just wanted to say Thank you for your time, it is very much appreciated and I agree I need to become more familiar. I have decided for the moment to opt out of the friend opening the acct not because I dont trust her but i dont want to ruin her name just because they might link her to me. I am going to buy the stealth just cant do it just yet. Thanks to all:)
