New eBay sellers - All asking for ID and selfie now?

[stealthnorris]

Anyone successfully passing the verification where you submit a Photo ID and a bank statement?

VS the way asking for a selfie with the document?

if you're getting this, there might be a problem with the way you make the accounts.
the chance of bypassing this is very slim especially for newly created accounts.

Is ebay asking for selfie now?

Selfies? Thats ****en weird. Although I think amazon did something similar when I tried signing up for them (or maybe it was just a zoom call I forget)

Happened on and off with eBay for a while but most the time its due to a limitation not on account creation

It's happening on all new accounts. Don't believe otherwise.

Opened two accounts in September 2024 and did not get this message.

Maybe for you....

Don't go around spreading untruthful info when what you said is not correct at the slightest....

It's happening on all new accounts. It's either a selfie + bank statement or an id + bank statement. Don't believe otherwise.

No its not. Moreover, on ebay.com, under, "registering as a seller", it says, "we'll need to confirm your identity and in SOME CASES we may need you to send us a photo of a valid form of identification."

So, during account creation, if you throw any flags, they will ask for ID.

I'm talking about creating a usa eBay seller account. Who cares about making a buyer account? 10/10. When it comes to creating a seller account, it will ask for a selfie and bank statement or an ID and bank statement. Prove me wrong, I dare anyone to

Not sure who is talking about a buyer account, even referred to, "registering as a seller".

New seller accounts, if created properly, do not require any form of ID or bank statement. Period. If you have a flagged SSN, since the last 4 are asked during registration, maybe this would throw a flag, not sure.

I'll waste my time and prove you wrong with a VIDEO, just for you, if you put $250 in a escrow account that I get to keep after success

As with any account that I have created over the last 20 years, no forms of ID needed.

You are an idiot you don’t have any eBay selling history and you have no idea what you’re talking about. You are just misleading people. You’re probably associated with the forums

stealth process with solid IP source, phone etc?

They have been asking for selfie since early 2023. At least from what I have seen. Probably not for all accounts, but overtime it's silly to think it won't be implemented.

Stealth only gets harder overtime, not easier.

I have over 25 years of eBay selling history. When you don’t know something don’t push your agenda. Your SSN is flagged, or your IP is crappy or you aren’t opening a business account (correctly). Put your money on your confidence and I’ll video it. No more discussion

Correct, hotspot device with a big carrier sim.

New to me they have ever asked for a selfie. If it’s been since 2023, has to be for flagged accounts/info during creation. They may ask for it overtime, but as with any stealth account, stolen info is never OK and related info is the way to go, in which case the selfie should not be an issue.
