Default Old ban, Details somehow survived and now I'm curious

I got suspended in 2020 before Managed Payments, I don't even remember actually recieving an "MC" with a number or reason. I remember I was selling pre-owned clothes from brands and got hit by a brand apparently sending IP infringment to eBay, and eBay banning me for "Being a risk" and that they're just "erring on the side of caution" or something like that. Since then I had used a family members account under the same address & last name - somehow their account never went down over the following 5 years.

Come 2025, I've had to switch that account to a business account. My full real details had to go through. Full name, Ni number, business bank account with full name too. They have everything on me now and still didn't ban me this time. Looks like my details survived somehow - I think I remembered reading somewhere here that pre-MP bans aren't as enforced (?) maybe more so that my ban was simply a "risk/caution" type thing.

Either way, now that they have my full details and nothings banned I have a question hoping someones been through this. I've been forced onto a business account but still have a fairly high % personal item sales overall these days - I barely use eBay anymore. For the few trade related items I do sell the business acc is fine but fees are insane on personal items.

What's the risk with me creating a personal account separate under my real details that they already have let fly now? Wouldn't be any funny business just simply sporadic rarely listed personal goods every now and then.

I think it's worth giving it a try.

If the details are previously suspended you will double your risk of their system catching it and taking down all the accounts together

If you create a second account, make sure you use a different device.

Also get a fresh sim card and use mobile data only, avoid connecting to the same wi-fi as your other account.

Also avoid registering it under the same address as your current account. Use a different address.
You might need to provide your ID later on as you make a few sales, keep that in mind as well.
