Using Iphone for taking pictures on stealth
 

Hi everyone,

Firstly, I am definitely going to buy the stealth guide when I start earning again which shouldn't be long but I need a little more advice regarding pictures.

On my previously suspended account, I used an iphone to take the pictures, plugged it into my pc and uploaded them.

Can I take new pictures on the same iphone and upload to TINY PICS on clean computer with new ip, no cookies etc?

As always, your advice is very much appreciated!

:ban?:

Re: Using Iphone for taking pictures on stealth
 

with any stealth account the best recommendation is to take new pictures and clean them using something like batch purifier. The demo version works fine

Batch purifier

does this still apply if i were to take pics with a compltely different camara? or take with my phone and send in an email and open email on laptop and download to use pic?

Re: Using Iphone for taking pictures on stealth
 

Completely different camera not so much but one taken on an existing device yes as it will have device info on the pictures and be used to link you.

Be safe and use the cleaner...it takes seconds!

Re: Using Iphone for taking pictures on stealth
 

New Camera, Same Iphone, clean those pictures! Better to be safe than sorry.

Re: Using Iphone for taking pictures on stealth
 

So would you take picture with phone clean it then upload or can you clean once uploaded on laptop?

Re: Using Iphone for taking pictures on stealth
 

Personally I rather use a Digital Camera, Clean the files then upload.

Re: Using Iphone for taking pictures on stealth
 

And dont reuse without cleaning or altering

Re: Using Iphone for taking pictures on stealth
 

turn off gps access to your pictures in the iphone, otherwise gps data will be in the photo

Is eBay really this involved in trying to find duplicate accounts? I would think the cost to track all of this data would far outweigh the advantages it brings them. Absolutely amazing that they would go this extreme. Thanks for the info....never even thought about it!

Re: Using Iphone for taking pictures on stealth
 

The technology for tracking duplicate accounts, etc is extremely cheap and they can afford to do it.

Re: Using Iphone for taking pictures on stealth
 

How do you do that in the iphone?

Re: Using Iphone for taking pictures on stealth
 

iv often thought about them tracking pictures but thought narrrr that's a bit OTT but wow glad i read this thread now just bought an account off a member and am using my iphone witch iv used on previous accounts would of been a total waste. cheers guys :)

Re: Using Iphone for taking pictures on stealth
 

and thats what the forum is for....keeping the guide up to date ;)

Re: Using Iphone for taking pictures on stealth
 

I use my iphone then upload send them to my email. Done this for years on many many accounts. If i reuse on any other account I rename it.

Re: Using Iphone for taking pictures on stealth
 

Is the manner in which sugarlaces uploads pics a feasible one? I ask because this is what I have been doing also, not even realizing photos and cameras were trackable. Good grief.

I use my iPhone or iPad to take pictures then email to my stealth email -related address and save to the computer.

Please confirm this is feasible. I will, moving forward, use batch purifier though

Re: Using Iphone for taking pictures on stealth
 

I also use my iPad to take pictures and than just plug into my PC and copy the pictures to my desktop

Just download exif cleaner , and after you copy the pics to your computer clean all exif data, takes 5 seconds and no need to worry whether your pictures will link you or not

Re: Using Iphone for taking pictures on stealth
 

hi everyone. i have an old camera like Panasonic DMC TZ4. it doesn`t have internet or any extras. i have been using it on restricted account. is it ok to use it for a new account or still need to clean the pics? any advice will be much appreciated. :focus:

Re: Using Iphone for taking pictures on stealth
 

We recommend you clean ALL pictures. Better safe than sorry.

Re: Using Iphone for taking pictures on stealth
 

Good lord.....I had no idea about this.....Do you think I'd be safe if I removed all the pictures I use on all my accounts, retake the pics, clean them, and repost?

Re: Using Iphone for taking pictures on stealth
 

Retaking them is a good move

Re: Using Iphone for taking pictures on stealth
 

Taking any pictures with smartphones with GPS enabled will store geotagging, and with the right software anyone including ebay could see where and when the picture was taken. I mostly use a camcorder to take pictures, so no geotagging. But if you took pictures with any smart devices ex. Tablets or smartphones it would be best to use the cleaning software mentioned above. If you believe your pictures have the geotag info and already have uploaded them on ebay then I would consider those accounts flagged/linked. Keep in mind it won't guarantee that you would get limited soon, just proceed with caution.

hi, i have windows vista, just installed the batch purifier, but i can`t find it on the lap top. and i tried to clean one pic, but don`t know how to clean it. how do i use the batch purifier? many thanks :)

Re: Using Iphone for taking pictures on stealth
 

If it did not show up on the desktop, look under "C:\Program Files\Digital Confidence\BatchPurifier\BatchPurifier.exe". Could also be in Program Files(x86).

Re: Using Iphone for taking pictures on stealth
 

I would love for someone to give me example of their account being linked through images because it sounds like total bull**** to me. Unless other elements like IP, address, coookies are linked I dont see how you can get banned.

Re: Using Iphone for taking pictures on stealth
 

Try reading the forum to see the HELPFUL INFO given by seasoned stealthers.

Then decide who is talking the BS ....

Us or you.

I'll give you a hint. Search for posts by this user

By all means you refute the arguement. But supply YOUR reasons rather than ask for spoon feeding.

:nono:

Re: Using Iphone for taking pictures on stealth
 

I see your point. I guess it's easy to use a program like batch purifier.

But what about the path and folder name. For example if I am sharing pictures among all my user accounts on a pc and all of them have their own ebay account. Will ebay be able to see the path folder name? The problem is they all link to one main username.

Regards

Ebay can't see Paths of your folders......
