MC183 CIT NOTICE: eBay Registration Suspension - Breach of User Agreement- mcelreavy34




Dear

We regret to inform you that your eBay account has been suspended indefinitely due to concerns we have for the safety of the eBay community.

Why have we suspended your account?

From experience we know that certain items and actions are more closely associated with fraudulent activity on eBay than others. Under the eBay User Agreement we may suspend an account if we believe that the user may cause eBay or another eBay user financial loss or legal liabilities. You can read the User Agreement by copying this link into a new browser window:

Your User Agreement

You are prohibited from using eBay in any way, including registering new accounts. We have ended any open listings that you may have had.

Please be advised that this suspension does not relieve you of your obligation to pay any fees that you may owe to eBay.

Thank you for your cooperation in this important matter.

Dear ??? (????@googlemail.com),

Your item(s) have been ended due to suspension of your eBay account. Any fees associated with these listings have been credited to your account.


No follow up email has been recieved.

Funny thing is the paypal has not been limited (a week or so old, verified). Would the paypal account be ok to use with a new ebay account?

No
 

No do not use this as will cause you to get suspended again

Noel

183 is a very high number and usualy means a total ban. thats my experience. lower ones can usualy get reinstated

Mc081 Cit Notice
 

Does anyone know what MC081 CIT NOTICE is for and whats the best approach to get reinstated, I have not done anything wrong.

My ebay account was locked first, then my Pay Pal account,

both are now asking for ID.

ebay are saying (in their eyes) you have broken the user agreement. If you are not or can not supply the ID, make a new Stealth account. For some reason you are likely linked to a suspended account. Have you other suspended accounts?

Yes I have but how they have linked it I have no idea, different I.P browser totally cleaned out for a long time. It seem to happen more or less when I put an auction up on ebay.com, .co.uk has been fine for months with no problem.

i can supply the ID and all the requests they have both made, but will it make any difference, the ID is in my sisters name with different address names etc...

Any ideas ?

MC019 eBay listing removed: Trademark Violation - Unauthorised Item

Your listing(s) may be eligible for relisting through My eBay. If so you'll see the listing in your Unsold Items page within My eBay. Those that are not eligible for relisting will not be visible in the Unsold Items page.

To relist your item, sign in to My eBay, go to your Unsold items and select the item that was cancelled. (It's highlighted with a yellow banner.) Before relisting, please make any changes necessary to ensure that your listing is in compliance with the law and eBay policies.

You might want to check your other listings for similar violations.


One of my items just got removed for whatever reason, anyone know? I used my own photos. I can relist it, but I dont know what to change. The weird thing is, is that there is no contact information. So I have to guess what to change, then relist? right ebay...

Hi guys, I got 4 MC000 recently, they removed all my listings and also the paypal account linked to that account. I still have no idea of what MC000 means. do you guys know anything about MC000?

Hello:
It could be another Generic Suspension code.
They have many.
What was the underlining Reasons for Suspension?
--Was your Paypal acct limited first?
--Were your dsrs below min?
--Were you late on paying ebay fees?
--Did you receive any notices prior to this?

many. many things.. NOW--lets try to define why they suspended you--
AND to see if its worth trying fro Reinstatement or you having to start over again??
Good luck :)

What was the underlining Reasons for Suspension?
--Was your Paypal acct limited first?
---------They almost limited me the same time.
--Were your dsrs below min?
---------New account, being used for about 1 month. I think it is not the dsrs reason
--Were you late on paying ebay fees?
---------Yes. I never pay ebay fees, LOL.
--Did you receive any notices prior to this?
---------No. no other notices or asking me for ebay fees. They just suspended me.

How to install, they sent me an email:


Dear ******,

As part of our efforts to provide a safe and secure environment for the
online community, we regularly screen account activity. While reviewing
your PayPal and eBay accounts, we observed activity that we would like
to further verify. For this reason, limitations have been placed on
your account(s) until we are able to gather some additional information
from you.

In order to resolve the account limitations, please complete the
following steps:

1. Log into your PayPal account
2. Click on the “My Account” tab
3. Click on the sub-tab “Resolution Center”
4. Go to the “Action” column
5. Click on the “Resolve” button and complete the requested steps on
each lifting requirement outlined.

After we have gathered the necessary information, your account will be
reviewed for reinstatement and you will be notified by e-mail of our
decision. Please note that any sellers fees owed to eBay may become due
and payable. Any outstanding amounts owed will be debited from the
billing method on file unless previously disputed.

We thank you for your prompt attention to this matter and apologize for
any inconvenience.

Sincerely,

Account Review Department


The reasons I think maybe includes:
1, ebay fees.
2, suspended paypal then suspended ebay account. but I only use that paypal to do verification, I didn't even log in to it.
3, the thing I'm selling. The things I'm selling are about 400USD each, and with these accounts I sell about 8 to 10.

I still can't tell what does MC000 mean.

I got an MC064 for listing an AUTHENTIC Nike jacket. Got suspended 4 days ago, faxed all the papers and emailed them my original store receipt.

Do you think there is any chance I will be reinstated? I did not do anything wrong and its my first ever suspension.

Please help, I am so sad because I have proof my item was authentic.

^^ Why did you get suspended?

They said it was a VERO pull down, which is confusing because my item was authentic! I bought it in the Nike store!

Welcome to the "You Are Guilty Until Found Innocent" world from an ancient twilight zone episode. Your suspension is simple enough but watch out for the reinstatement agreement.

"I promise I well never again list any potentially infringing items"

If you ever again list a potentially infringing item POOF! you are gone for good.

Who's to say what is or what is not potentially infringing?

Then watch the movie Catch-22.

Maybe that explains it, maybe not.

What is MC183 FPA
 

I got a MC183 FPA notice... it says:

MC183 FPA NOTICE: eBay Registration Suspension - User Agreement - Abusing eBay

We're sorry to tell you that your eBay account was suspended because recent account activity has raised serious security concerns. We've taken this precaution to protect our members while we make sure that the activity doesn't cause harm -- however unintentionally -- to the eBay Community.

You can appeal this suspension. If, after reviewing your appeal, we're confident that this activity poses no risk to the Community, we'll be happy to reinstate your account. For information about how to appeal this suspension, please go to:

I'd like a bit of insight on what it means and what to do. I had a few items VERO'd back in August (most had already completed, I think there were 4 total). I stopped listing these immediately. There were a few people who opened disputes thru paypal, all of which I refunded and all were satisfied/closed. I went on to try selling legal items, never received a VERO, and then in September I noticed suddenly a selling limit was in place. I emailed to have it lifted, received an email that it would remain in place and to contact them again in 90 days to have it reconsidered, and then BAM... suspended??!

I can't get a real answer from anyone. No one to contact to find out exactly what happened, so I'm left guessing. My paypal account hasn't been affected. Just my main account and two others for members of my household! We all use the same computer, so I'm wondering if that is part of it? I hate guessing games.

So now, can anyone identify the above code for me or tell me anything about it? The only thing Live Help rep said was it didn't look that bad and I should be able to be reinstated, but so far Ebay is saying, NO it will remain closed.

Thanks

KFC, It's a blanket code that eBay uses when they want to suspend somebody for whatever reason they want. Some people get suspended for doing nothing wrong.

You might want to contact Modee and see if he can help you.

If not, it's time to enter "stealth" mode and open a new account.

If you want a high-level overview of what you should do to correctly create new eBay/PP accounts, check this out. Read the whole thread and follow the links in the first post.

If you want more detail, I seriously recommend you purchase the eBay Stealth ebook.

Damn... I'm hungry for some chicken, now. ;)

Ok, so now reinstated?
 

So, yeah I posted about the MC183 notice and all. I had emailed T&S several times about my account suspension. I faxed over a utility bill and DL just in case that would help.

I still don't know exactly why I was suspended... BUT... I just got a reinstatement notice?!

I am SOOO confused. So now I'm thinking... maybe I should create a seller ONLY account? Can someone direct me with a link to a thread that will help me figure out how to do this without linking it back to my buyer account? Or a link to a site??

I've never had a problem with Ebay before and now I'm a little nervous about using it. I shouldn't feel that way. I don't want to be suspended again and after reading so many accounts of people being suspended for what appears to be nothing, it has me very cautious.

Thanks...

I've read on this forum that some of the members who have had accounts reinstated, soon had them suspended later.
The links I provided above should be sufficient to get you started.If the cost of the Stealth ebook is too much for you at the $47 price (including site subscription) you can go through the auctionstealth.com link and only pay $37 (no site subscription). If that's still too much for you, you can get it for "free" using the trialpay method (auctionstealth site).
If you don't want to get the ebook at all, you've got a lot of reading and research to do. Your best starting point is to read the thread I linked to in the "check this out" link above.

You have to educate yourself to the ways that eBay/Paypal can track and link you.

I don't know if anyone would find this interesting and this is the topic most related to it that I could find (didn't want to start a new thread). I was on here a while ago and some people were wondering what kind of notice a buyer gets when your account is suspended.

Here is a notice sent to me (as the buyer) regarding a seller having their account suspended (I have altered the items in italics for privacy).

Looks like the have changed that up some. The old one said something along the lines of "FILE A CHARGEBACK NOW WITH YOUR CREDIT CARD OR PAYPAL" not please wait a reasonable amount of time for the item then contact us....... maybe that's a good thing :cool:

Go to your User CP and put the location under your profile. Each ebay site has different info & so it is useful when answering to know.

Quick Question - Reinstatement
 

I looked at a couple reinstatement threads and didn't see this asked so anyways I got suspended for 30 days for

MC034 FB NOTICE: eBay Registration Suspension - Feedback Manipulation



My question is when I reply to the email for reinstatement will I need to send anything to them like id? Cause I read how people had to send ids but is that for all cases if so what exactly do i need to send and where and should i just go ahead and send it now

Vero MC019 Trademark Violation Unauthorized Item
 

Two questions. #1, I got Vero'd, Vero MC019 Trademark Violation Unauthorized Item, but my account was miraculously not suspended. It is a new account and I am being very careful listing 1 or 2 items a week.

Is it safe if I wait a couple weeks before listing anything else, then instead of putting a picture of the actual item, just putting a picture of the box or would it be safe if I took the picture of the item myself? What is it that they are seeing that is getting me Vero'd? Is it the pictures or something else?

Question #2. Lots of other people sell the same thing I do and have the same pictures copied from the internet and they are not vero'd and their listings are still up. Can another Ebay member turn me in and get me vero'd? I had a mean, miserable, lonely, despicable buyer recently - nothing I could do would please him. He is also a seller but bought something from me. He made outrageous demands and I told him not to contact me again. He didn't but then, four days later I get vero'd. Is this a coincidence or could the other seller have done it?

First item i tried to sell on my account got vero. After that i started to just sell items that weren't vero and havent had a problem. Probably after I get 30+ feedbacks I will try to sell another one or so. This account was 4 months old when started selling too.

Getting hit with a VERO Violation is basically getting hit with most violations. You get what I call a strike. And if you are not a Power Seller...3 strikes your out. If you get 2 violations its best to sell from another account until at least one of those violations expire.

Check your seller dashboard and it will tell you when the violation expires.

Suspension
 

HI, I received two suspensions one for each account, I dont know exactly how it was linked as I did everything stated in the stealth book. Any suggestions? Thanks.

denim, what were the actual suspensions? I prefer to know them as it is easier to help.
Sounds like a link, maybe some slipup in the creation of the accounts.

VeRO is not a generic term. The first step when getting an item taken down is to simply email the specific VeRO member listed in the takedown message and ask why your listing was terminated.

MC198 One-Day INI Selling Restriction ( 272327478)
 

What does this mean? MC198 One-Day INI Selling Restriction ( 272327478)
