MC113 +MC124 after 3 months!
 

Hi

been opening about 9 stealth in the past month. 6 have been closed after 3 months by either mc113 or mc124. i built the accounts slowly with low risk items. the strange thing is after 3 months they went down one after the either. but after a period of 1-2 weeks between them. Im sure its not linking.
and also i could see once I listed the new item the next morning it was hit with the limation. so I can assume it most have got something to do with the item..even though it was low risk. but it was always below 10 euros..
if i did any mistakes from the beginning ebay surely could have limited the accounts straight away but why after 3 months . I really did not change anything of my listing strategy. here some details

1.) Use Vpn (hma.com)
2.) Ip location about 1-2hours away from original location
2.) List book, household items, usb cable etc. (always 1-3 euro), sometimes I listed 4-5 low risk items in a day, after a few weeks of slowly listing items;
3.) translated description from german into french (as I opened up stealth in belgium and I dont speak frensh, only german)
4.) pictures mainly from ebay and google
5.) sometimes i select; only collection, no shipping

Please tell me what I did wrong. and why these limitations kicked it 3 months after.


thanks!

Hide My A$$ VPN = :rip::rip:

That VPN is on ebays blacklist a long long time now,

You need a VPN that is STATIC and DEDICATED and preferably fresh. HMA and services like it simply are not good for stealth.

The other thing with IP's is, I believe the location of the IP should match the location of the stealth account. I know others will disagree with me on this, but I think it helps that if your stealth account is in Miami, FL that your IP address not show up in Seattle, WA.

Once your account is established (from my own experience), then you can try different state IP...but never HMA or other cheap services.

Excample: I regularly operate my US accounts with other state IP

so even after 3 months and using hma for all this time it can be limited anytime?

Re: MC113 +MC124 after 3 months!
 

You will not have helped yourself by selling usb cables either, they are definitely not low risk.

Re: MC113 +MC124 after 3 months!
 

so the reason for closure is most likely the HMA vpn.

i reckon if it was the goods it would have happened much earlier. because in the first 3 months it was fine..

what do you guys think

Re: MC113 +MC124 after 3 months!
 

Not anymore. My mobile hotspots show different locations. CA, sometimes TX. New era of dynamic IPs. Could be an issue but I havent run into it yet.

Re: MC113 +MC124 after 3 months!
 

Sure, but it is easy to verify whether the connection is a hotspot or cable internet. No big deal if your hotspot has a Texas IP and you're in New York, but it could be suspicious to have high speed internet with an IP from Washington when you're registered in Colorado.
