Serious Help With Etsy Stealth...PLEASE DONT IGNORE
 

Hi, Im trying to get back on etsy after being suspended twice. I was suspended the first time a yr ago for infringement and then again a month ago once they linked my accounts.

I WOULD BE GREATFUL IF ANYONE CAN ANSWER ANY OF THESE QUESTIONS.

PLEASE DONT TROLL I JUST NEED ANSWERS

So I been doing a lot of research for the pass few weeks and have a lot of questions but this is what heard/know. These questions is if I decide to make a US based stealth account.

I Need:

Fresh IP
New addresses
New Bank info
New User On Computer
New SSN

I heard you can use the same ssn and same name when making another etsy but the address has to be different, is that true? They already have the last 4 of my ssn

I heard that you cant use an VCC etsy you have to use an actual bank account that allows mix match names is that true? Is there anyway around this? (I dont wanna have to open up a new bank account and them my etsy shop get suspended a few days later)

Can I use a proxy instead of a fresh IP from IP burger? It's $30 for a fresh IP, If my account get suspended Im gonna have to keep spending $30 and I dont know if my account gonna survive for at least a month that's pretty stupid.

If I decied to a make a non US-based stealth account.

I know these are the countries that dont ask for SSN because they dont have DC (direct check out) It's probably more but these are the ones I found.

Brazil
Argentina
Uruguay
Chile
Peru
Morocco


Questions:

If etsy ask for ID what should I do? I can't give them my ID because* I dont live in those countries. Im pretty sure making a ⊗⊗⊗⊗ ID is illegal. I feel like they would only ask for ID if i screwed up somewhere and they get suspicious.

Since my shop is based in a diffrent country that dont have direct check
out I can use paypal, but I heard that if you pay your etsy fees with paypal they can see your real info and you will get linked and suspended. So you have to pay with a VCC so etsy wont see your real info but the ⊗⊗⊗⊗ info, but etsy won't accept VCCs plus wont etsy flag your account if they see there's a card in someone else name that dont match the name on the account?

Would I need to open a bank account in a different country?

How would I do that?

How could I get a CC from a different country if I cant use a VCC?

By selling my stuff in a different country will I still get the same amount of traffic like as if my shop was based in the US or no?

Hi! Im from a Non-direct checkout country. I used to have 4-5 Etsy shops but for the las couple of years but all got suspended. Some where from latam and some were stealth from Europe. Unfortunately, my method does not longer work with Etsy. I even dont know why my shops got suspended as I never got any response from them. Just from one account they told me that my account was a 'high risk one' for them but I had over 10,000 sales with 5 stars on that one, so I did not understand. I tried to reach back to them but they never replied.

What I can tell you is that you will need a steath Paypal if you want to create a paypal etsy account. But I dont see a really good future with your plan. As you say, VCC are no good anymore for opening new accounts, maybe for paying the fees. If that's the case, you could get a VCC from your paypal account to pay the fees, but a red flag might trigger. Its hard to say.

Forget about VPN or fresh IP with VPN. Maybe, and just maybe a fresh residential IP but Im not sure as I did not try it yet. I tried with a Cloud server but got also banned. I dont think it was because of the cloud server itself, it might be because the sum of things needed to open the account with these kind of methods. If one fails, the whole method fails.

Payoneer might be another choice, but it seems Etsy does not really like Payoneer. That also might trigger.

If I can help you, let me know.

Looks like everything posted in this thread so far is wrong. PP only stores are going strong, recently opened ones too.
