How to set up VMWare + multiple VPNs?
 

As I understand, VMWare creates virtual machines on my computer, so for each machines that I'm creating do I need to also do the preparation for stealth accounts: clearing cookies, cache, removing flash objects and all that?

Or do I make a virtual machine, run the VPN on it and it's good to go?

Is there a manual or other post in this forum that instruct on how to set up VMWare workstation to run multiple stealth account with VPNs from 24VC.com?

Please advice!

No further prep is required, other than setting up a VPN connection within your VPN.
Yes.
Not that I'm aware of, but there are lots of posts on this forum about this topic. There are also tutorials on 24vc which show you how to configure a VPN in whatever OS you choose to use for your VPN.

I know you're nervous, but there's nothing to it. Just install an OS on your VM like you would on any other computer, configure your VPN or whatever kind of connection you'll be using, then start selling.

I would recommend Virtual Box over VMWare.

1. Download and Install Virtual Box: https://www.virtualbox.org/wiki/Downloads. Create a VM, if possible, create it with 2GB RAM and 2 Cores so it runs much more smooth.

2. Download Ubuntu Desktop 16.04 LTS ISO (x64 prefered) from here https://www.ubuntu.com/download/desktop

3. Install Ubuntu into your new VM

2 little apps I find pretty useful to work with VMs and install on each machine are:

Sticky Notes for all info about that particular account, passwords, etc.

For install fire Terminal and type:
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:umang/indicator-stickynotes
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install indicator-stickynotes

and

IP Indicator, which shows you the external IP on the top bar to make sure always you're with the IP you're supposed to be using. To install type:

sudo apt-add-repository ppa:bovender/bovender
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install indicator-ip
