Making 4 ebay accounts buyers with associated problems

[steve70000]

just thought id let you know what happened with these accounts.

i had 4 UK ebay accounts created on the same day. 4 different users on PC, 4 different IP addresses, 4 different locations, 4 real addresses with a mix of made up name and real last name.

ok so il left for a few days and went today to buy items. Here's a run down of what happened. .


1..No. 1 Brought something valued @ £1.00. Created PP acc with entropay from the ebay pay page which directed me to the PP page .. transaction went ok..

2..No. 2 Made PP account. entopay CC went ok. Then brought something valued @ £1.00. Payment did not go through?? few mins later PP limited message for 'need more info'.

3..No. 3 Brought something valued @ £1.00. Created PP acc with entropay from the ebay pay page which directed me to the PP page .. transaction went ok..


4..No.4 Brought something valued @ £1.00. Created PP acc with entropay from the ebay pay page which directed me to the PP page .. transaction went ok..



So the number 2 acc i am thinking that maybe the real last name and the real address did not match up or it was maybe banned or something. Not sure..

Was it that i made the PP acc first then bought something and linked the account ..not sure...????

Do you know how hard that nonsense is to read? It says UK for your flag.


I'm presuming your parents are from Timbuktu or somewhere where they're taught to teach their children to be totally illiterate.

I'm voting for a re-write.

If my head did not hurt before, it does now.

Hope it reads better now.

security questions. Please review your personal details and recent
transactions. Make sure that your account information hasn't changed and
that you recognise all of your transactions.

If you see a payment that you don't recognise, let us know immediately. Go

Please tell me you did not attach 3 paypals with different IPs to one ebay account?

You linked yourself doing that

@steve70000...not to offend you but in the time you have taken to ATTEMPT an analysis of why 1 out of 4 accounts failed....I have made 7 accounts that are ready to sell.

Waste of time this analysis. All the best however.

[NoneOther]

Sometimes it's difficult to see the wood for the trees.

BTW I do hope the surnames and addresses you are using are not the real surnames of people who actually live at those addresses

thanks..but just wondering what happend so i do not do it again.

all accounts are real address
2 of the acc are real last name and made up first.
the item i bought was £1.00 stuff pdf ,songs/books/cake recipe..

[rsot]

Fine I will play a bit in the analysis. So it is just the pp that go down, not the eB right?

I think the first mistake you are making is buying too many of those digital crap - songs, recipes, books, pdf - right away to build your feedback. I think pp is seeing this activity and causing you headaches.

I have done what you have done before - purchased low end items - but slowly...over 2 weeks...not in one shot.

Apologies in advance if I am missing some info but there is some clarity missing and...yes, NFL playoffs are on

[steve70000]

thanks rsot,,,
it is just PP causing the hassle ebay acc still ok.
so ill try more softly softly on the buying...
and try use made up names for the real address

thanks...

[rsot]

Do you have access to 3v or Tesco gift ccs? Try to make few accounts by avoiding use of EP steve.

[steve70000]

im close to a tesco so ill have a look next week and try a few acc with them.

Thanks....

[jumba]

if the pp account isnt verified and your buying stuff then that could be it?

[Stigger]

Its not hard to understand whats happend....

Read the FULL message and do what they ask you to do

I do not know your address method, but if they are made correctly and stealth then these things are just random, take my word for it, most of the time.

You can make 4 accs in exact same way and none/one/several trip up, they ask for further info, and at that point they either say ok you passed or get stuffed.

If your success rate is 3 out of 4 for any account creation, it is not abnormal rate, given you are using things like vcc and maybe other stealth methods that are flaggable. A few get flagged or reviewed, so if you make accs in quantities you will run in to this....
