Accidentally left ebay page open before closing laptop
 

I'm making this thread regarding a problem i caused myself. : I was using ebay with my vpn active, I closed my laptop and put in sleep mode. When I opened my laptop back up and signed in to computers profile, ebay was still open, my vpn gave the notification about 5-10 seconds later saying it's now active! I did not refresh the page, nor use it in any type of way. I closed the browser as soon as I noticed, took probably 5 seconds for me to close. My problem is, my wifi that it connects to automatically has been restricted by ebay on around 3 accounts. So would it be possible that they tracked that ip that quick or even tracked it at all to my stealth account? Thank you!

I done that few times by mistake, nothing to worry about, especially if you are using a good VPN provider, then it should have a kill switch which will mask your I.P. address if internet connection is lost or if laptop goes to sleep mode etc...
But still best to me more careful, as this is a golden rule for stealthers. ; )

You're fine. No data was transferred on your real IP.

IPs can be dynamic. even ebay is not that stupid to ban by ips. cookies is the most important
