Account creation and cookies

[SteveWest]

Any advice would be great. I’ve spent hours going through past threads but havent found the answer I was looking for.

1. Can PayPal detect/recognise account creation patterns using bots?

2. Cookies/browsing history, I have read many threads but they all seem to be about eBay, but is browsing important after creating a new PayPal? Like random browsing on random websites? Or is it ok that the only history stored is all PayPal?

Any help would be appreciated.. I have read the stealth guide, and have been creating stealths for 6 years with little problems here and there, recently it seems to be a bit more difficult with instant limitations after first payment through invoice or customer sending money directly to my account. In the last 2 weeks I’ve lost 4 new accounts out of 7 which means I’ve burnt bank accounts. All accounts are created using new user accounts, new email, real phone number, mobile hotspot from various providers, bank attached, selling between 6-14 days after creation at amounts between £30-£140, this has never been an issue until the last couple of weeks.

1. Using bots?? Oh yes , not worth it imho

2. Cookies is more important to PP so they know it's the same computer and browser that's being used to login.

browsing history unlike eBay not so much, but since you'll have a dedicated user acc and same browser it won't matter anyways

Thanks Saijin, can always count on you for advice. I never delete cookies but I was concerned that the cookies and browsing history only show PayPal as I only log in and out of paypal and then switch user account. So all accounts only have a browsing history of PayPal.

In terms of bots, I meant do they have bots that can tell it’s the same account creation method, for example, that they can see you always go to PayPal through google and always sign up a certain way? I don’t want to get linked because I create all my accounts the same way. I know signing up is signing up but I’m sure we all have little things we do the same without even realising it.

That's fine actually, the cookies on that particular browser and user account tells PP that you are using the same device to login so they won't flag you as if you used a new computer.
