Stealthing Etsy (Non US/UK seller)
 

Hi Guys, I wanted to ask a question regarding stealth etsy account.
This happened to me somehow. (i sell artwork that my sister draws)
and cause most of them are Disney princess, and other popular culture characters in anime style so they were taken down cause of copyright stuff...
eventually my shop got suspended.

Now i decided to stealth it and had some questions in my mind)

1) do i need completely new bank information with different names and last names?
2) i use paypal for receiving payments. So can i just change the e-mail address on paypal and use that same account?
3) how do i pay for fee's to stay undercover? I assume i cant use my family members bank cards cause we have same last name.
4) also i think that the photos of listings must be different. however its artworks. i was thinking perhaps to use different type of display mockups or take photos in different backgrounds?

4) and the main thing is IP Address. Does it have to be from completely different city? or it can be in same city? I was thinking about using mobile hotspot for etsy, or just buy a new IP address from my Internet Provider or just switch to another one.

Btw, wanted to remind you that i'm not in US/UK/Canada.
So won't be problems with ID or Etsy Payments (its not supported here anyways)

So guys, i really have faith in you =) I hope you will be able to help me a bit with this situation =)
