- Residental HTTP Proxy
- New Phone Number
- Changed Mac Adress
- New Windows account.
- Images on listiings was made in photoshop new one created

Want to know your expirience guys .... ?
Last several days I increased listings creation like 2-4 listings per day ( last 2 day nothing ) :ranger:

I have plan to change items category cause also smell many new competitors coming back again and simple they copy all my images and text descriptions...

Re: New Accounts Deactivated After Some Sales ?
 

If you say it's competitors reporting you, then what does your stealth methodology have to do with it?

Looks like its one of those competitive copyrighted niches you're in, lots of nastiness. Maybe change niche.

all time I getting one person who copy one my listing all time because he seen that items its bestseller, he getting suspended also all time and even if he it's not around my shop getting closed again afer some time...my personal friend also getting suspended in different niche and all time doing same like me all new Windows account, IP, new Paypal and other...:noidea:

Re: New Accounts Deactivated After Some Sales ?
 

Selling ip or counterfeit product is good for making some cash in the short term, but et sy always close those stores down. This is normal. Some (very few) go on for years, I have no idea how they do it. But its a short term business for the rest of us.

Also just thinkiing does Paypal verified with VCC affect somehow on etsy trust ?

Re: New Accounts Deactivated After Some Sales ?
 

Quite likely so due to payment coming into PP

Re: New Accounts Deactivated After Some Sales ?
 

I'm not the stealth pp guy, but many countries have privacy laws and institutions arent allowed to share customer details, excluding obvious stuff needed for an order like delivery address etc. So et sy wouldnt know how you verified your pp account.

Re: New Accounts Deactivated After Some Sales ?
 

You dont link your PayPal account like ebay only input your address. I doubt they can see any information associated with your pp.

Re: New Accounts Deactivated After Some Sales ?
 

Paypal is a must for recieving payments brotha...

Just related to this why I ask how Etsy know my credit card or vcc details, how I remember somewhere on etsy I had in yelow box attention how my card expiring soon even if I never added any card on etsy only on Paypal...How etsy know that..

Re: New Accounts Deactivated After Some Sales ?
 

Because you added your card as a billing method on Etsy

Re: New Accounts Deactivated After Some Sales ?
 

Nope my friend it's paypal only there.

Re: New Accounts Deactivated After Some Sales ?
 

The plot thickens. Yep, et sy now has an option to register stores with pp instead of cc's. I've never chosen it, if its like all other websites with auto payments ripped out of pp monthly, et sy may do it before I get to set the default email in pp to the correct one. If not, et sy gets an email of another stealth store and links them. I'll stick with VCC's for now.

As for et sy getting cc info from pp, your friend just thinks they do, because he is seeing pp info, not et sy info.

Re: New Accounts Deactivated After Some Sales ?
 

This is interesting to note

Re: New Accounts Deactivated After Some Sales ?
 

What about residental HTTP proxies ? I using that mostly and most sessions get another IP but same country how much this can affect?

Re: New Accounts Deactivated After Some Sales ?
 

When paying the bill, the pp page has et sy branding at the top, with pp's bank and cc details at the bottom, I can see how it could be confusing.

Re: New Accounts Deactivated After Some Sales ?
 

Been doing that for months now, et sy doesnt seem to give a damn, maybe they only check IP at log in?

Re: New Accounts Deactivated After Some Sales ?
 

Nothing wrong with dynamic ip's. That's normal

Re: New Accounts Deactivated After Some Sales ?
 

Made New account, New PayPal, Verified with VCC 4 year valid, Residental Session Proxy, new email adress, New Windows account, Listing image EXIF data cleared, ACCOUNT SUSPENDED. :/ WTF ..... Any Idea ?

Re: New Accounts Deactivated After Some Sales ?
 

Listing the same junk? Et sy was probably waiting for you.

Re: New Accounts Deactivated After Some Sales ?
