She was no Hacker but she was pretty good at Social Engineering.....she convinced a lot of people NOT change their passwords for at least 6 months or so, so she still had a good window of time to pull off a major scam.

She talked a big game, I was one of the few that didn't believe she could of pulled off this scam but I was wrong.

[sergfro]

I like to think I have quite a bit of knowledge, however; SandyD knew more about stealth than I will ever know. Say it ain't so Joe?

What do you mean since it started back in 2008? Your Longevity says 28% ?

I would think stealth started the very second that ebay or any other site started LOL!

Would like to hear why you think it started in 2008?

[Dmshark25]

That's around the time the forum started maybe 2007

[ricardosway8]

I bet she does. LOL

this was my view, I did not read her posts, they were samey and boasting, and knowing a bit about the 'industry' eg. buying secondhand stuff, she was full of BS on her success....

bottom line and sorry to offend anyone, but if you are selling accs on this forum, your ebay/az/e-commerce business is either failed or not making what you would like as an income, end of story!! and I know the backgrounds on several acc sellers, past and present...


I pointed out via pm to other people, how she was making me vomit - 'I coined the phrase professional buyer' etc etc....

what knowledge, same as all the senior people here, we all know how to make accs and build and pass verifications and all that stuff noobs think they need to pay for or people in a hurry buy for convenience....thats all it is....

[eternity4u]

I hope everything is okay with GreenBean!

This is the first time I am in the forum and seen a king absence.

[RosieTosie]

Yes have seeing occasional posts from Greenbean but nothing like the usual input, suspect a holiday might be behind the much lower than normal GB presence.

[rsot]

Gb hasnt been posting since end of Feb - no updates but hope she's alright

[oompaloompa]

then again, I am just commenting on this 'guru' status some people thought she had....not about the account rip off affair, that is seperate, nobody can predict that....2 phrases spring to mind, 'follow the money' and 'if it doesn't make sense, it ain't true'.

it just shows you never know anyone online, and sometimes you do not know real-life people. Most people are well-meaning though, it is a shame to be always guarded, and some of the most unlikely people turn out to be gems....so no, I do not blame those buyers who did not change their passwords, after all we have all trusted and assumed all is ok, at one time or another............

I would agree with you with one exception. I make the majority of my accounts, over 90% in fact. But I HAVE bought accounts from sellers when time did not permit me to create accounts. When sales are running full blast, it is difficult to get everything done. But in the back of my mind, I know I need more accounts.

I have purchased from 123 and Sandy D and had no problems. But I ALWAYS change the passwords when money starts coming in. You don't necessarily want to change the password the same day you get the account because it might look suspicious. But you should probably change it after a couple of weeks and DEFINITELY change it when money starts coming in.

And I believe you are right about the account sellers to a point. I considered it a long time ago, but decided against it since I can make more money on eBay than I thought I could make creating and selling accounts. But I DO believe that many account sellers DO sell on eBay.

Sandy D was always very political, claiming the moral high ground and complaining about all the "takers" and touting her hard work and success. I learned long ago to be wary of people like that. When someone has to constantly tell people what a great person they are, how they help so many people and how they are super successful, usually it is just an illusion. Sandy D turned out to be one of the biggest "takers" of all.

If i bought an account from ANYONE, password would be changed on day 1. I dont care who sold it to me.

[oompaloompa]

@jeff, I could read your posts all day long, you really do help people and know your stuff...

I would change the password too, but the people that did not, they slipped up, we all have...changing the password flags it, so jeff is right, day 1 is not necessarily the best time, as it is when you are managinging it on a new ip/cookies and all that dicey stuff....

re the acc sellers, I know most of them sell on ebay, just not successfully enough not to do sidelines.....full-on e-commerce and all its pitfalls, isnt for everyone though....

[123]

Oompa you make good points but I disagree with the comments about acct sellers, I can't speak for everyone but I still sell on both amazon & ebay and make a good living off that alone but I don't like putting all my eggs in one basket. If in the future the products I make most of my money off go bad I don't want to lose all my income. So I try to diversify my portfolio as much as possible, the same reason I sell accounts is the same reason I operate multiple businesses & websites that have nothing to do with ebay. I dont want all my eggs in one basket.
