Has anyone in the US created a successful Etsy account lately?

[LaPachanga]

I've read most of the Etsy threads, bought Stealth Book and had an account with IPBurger (Etsy didn't like this VPN though). I still can't get an account going. I was wondering are people still having success recently opening new Etsy Stealth accounts?

I've been reading that Mexico IP's are the go to now a days. I don't live too far from Tijuana so I been thinking about taking a drive down there if that is still an option.

Yup, that's what I've been hearing. I wish Gladiator was still around. She seemed like the most seasoned on this topic.

Anybody else?

She just reused her own name and SS for each account. Then at around 17k when the tax information needs to get resubmitted, she would use an EIN/LLC

Her secret was to just make real accounts....

We made one three weeks ago and one last week. No problems. Dont use VPNs and gift cards wont work for VCC most of the time.

Thanks for the insight, Yankee. I signed up for an account a few months back (before I knew what stealthing was) with all my real info. My account was shut down immediately. I figured they linked it to my SSN so just gave up on E.tsy...until I found this forum.

So are you saying I can sign up in the US using say a tethered IP with my real name and SSN, find a legit VCC and use another address and email that wasn't connect to my banned account? Also, use other stealth tactics such as new user on Windows and erasing Exif info on pics.

Rather than Etsy which is super difficult to keep an account going after a suspension, have you looked at the Ecrater site. Very low fees and if you want your listings high in Google Shopping you pay a marketplace fee once an item sells. Etsy is money grabbing site thats slowly turning into a clone of Ebay

Hey
Is it worth it? I mean if Ecrater promotes listings on google then listings should get many views. How many views do you get per day and how many listings do you have?

Hello,

Yes I took the advice that Yankee stated above. I used my real name and SS. Tethered my cell phone for internet. Wiped out EXIF info on pictures and created a new user on my windows computer. My Etsy has been up for about 3 weeks now. I only had two sales so far, but no suspension yet.

This is not a good stealth approach - using same info...

[maerg]
