Default Mobile Marketplace Apps...who dabbles?

Ok, this is something I don't think I've ever seen mentioned here.

Furthering my Umbrella Corp. style operations, I have branched into iOS and Android apps that only allow selling through said app. They exist and they are lucrative once you find the one that fits your industry.

Anyways, I've now run into issues with running multiple accounts after being suspended from one marketplace. One of my products is too commercial and they aren't having it. Anyways, knowing these apps are for more crippled in regards to tracking capabilities than a full blown OS and web browser, I started testing how to get back on.

Well, logging out and creating a new account failed. I knew it would, but I wanted to see how dumb they are. Second, deleted the app then reinstalled it. Bam, new account created no problem but failing to list items due to my suspension. Clearly, they are tracking by something like UDID?

So, fired up another device, untested in this marketplace. Creating new account, new listing, everything is a go...back in business. Operating on same IP address just for testing purposes and it doesn't seem to cause a problem.

I'm looking for help from anyone who knows how apps commonly track devices to prevent you from creating mass accounts. This would probably be something that has been implemented by a lot of apps who would see abuse, like social media apps. Anyone have any ideas beyond UDID or how I can spoof myself to look like another device so I don't have to keep jumping to new devices?

I am aware that Android has multi-user account capabilities, but I'm not sure if that's going to work until I pick up an Android tablet and try it.

They usually track by Device ID.

Well....there's a way for Ipad (Apple devices) but it would require jailbreaking the device, Cydia, and a program called UDID ⊗⊗⊗⊗r. Now I won't say I have used it but it might work.

I figured Jailbreak might be the only way. Maybe some used Chinese tabs on Crai.gsL.ist will work better. I'm sure I can find them for a few sticks and a rock.

Hey. I have the same issue. I work as android technician in Israel. I will explain a bit: when you download the app from the market you assigned on all permissions to give the ebay app the confirmation to download and store from your device. The following info.
1. Accounts on the device (meaning all the accounts that appear in the accounts list in settings)
2. Device ID (meaning unique individual android device serial code+android fingerprints)
3. Technical data like notifications and display issues)
4. Of course your ip adress and the app's itself cookies and cache.
There is a way to manipulate all the data given here I personally did so and I perform stealth account with it for a while. This is a long way but will make it worthwhile. My guess that the servers themselves have algorithms to check basic info but upon manual review all of your info will come across the ebay Wolfman.
