Can I create a new shop using cloud computing service

[bliu60828]

Anyone ever tries to connect to AWS or azure and successfully create a new shop and sell with it?

I am wondering if e**y's robot will ban you because you are from cloud computing and that cloud center's location is far from your address?

Tried with AWS free tier and was banned within 20 mins.

Tried with Express VPN and the account is still stable 1 month in.

You just need to change your IP. Virtualbox does not alter your ip.

That's pretty good given that you are using Express VPN (it's a risky IP source in general)

Account is UK based?

I suggest dumping that express VPN, its a pure luck you're not suspended already.

when you check cloud IPs can easily detectable because it looks like datacenter IPs so who uses datacenter ips as a regular user no one. So better to use IP burger Luminati kinda services

I think so. after setting up a new account, then a few moments later my account was suspended. i try contacted support and the problem was resolved. I know it's pure luck.

Auto suspensions and reinstatements in the beginning are normal these days.

There are a number of factors that could trigger this, starting with your setup (info of acc, banks, vcc's), ending with your listing photos, keywords, etc.

It's also normal to see accounts suspended 2 times in the beginning when listing items and both times getting reinstated afterward.
