HELP! Another Ebayer signed in on same IP

[Claire Voyant]

MY niece signed into her Ebay account while over here. I had no time to run in and scream " DON'T DO IT!" . Now what!!?? Is she going to be linked to my suspended account???? We are small time sellers. Nothing huge.

I shiver every time the phone rings, it will be her! Someone help clear this up please!!

Not really ebay dont suspend due to ip address.

[aribragin]

once or twice is ok but on a daily basis they will suspend her

I am thinking they can't do that over one time because what about if you list your auctions or log on at Panera Bread or Starbucks or something? Wouldn't everyone there be on the same IP? I am honestly confused how they can even use one's IP address as any type of "linking power"

Last March I had a friend who signed on to her ebay account from my computer which was linked to my original suspended name. Three weeks later she was suspended until she could PROVE she was not "connected to a suspended account".

Difficult to say for sure but as long as she was using her own equipment it should be OK.

Linking by cookies would be more of a worry.

And even if she is limited/suspended it should be fine as long as she can provide all the necessary documents to prove who she is.
