2x ebay +paypal acts limited/suspended withint 2-3 weeks/Used stealth book
 

Ive used all the steps from the ebay stealth book too a tee yet both ebay stealth accounts suspended and paypal accounts limited within 2-3weeks.

Got hit with the MC113 for the ebay acts and the paypal acts need photo id,
address proof, suppliers invoice+info plus a few other things.

Ive had another paypal account that required these docs and modified them in but they did not reinstate the accounts.

I try to keep the selling low key say 400-500pounds for the first month. Although these 2 accounts were over 1 year old left to mature before selling.

Feedback 100% and had about 12 before selling.

It seems to me ebay+paypal are cranking up these security checks. Would be grateful if anyone could advise or if anyone has got through months of selling without getting hit with suspensions or limited accounts, Thanks!

sounds like you need to read the book again

Have read it several times now so I know this is not the problem.

Thats off top my head maybe a few more.


I think it maybe the brand memory cards I was selling like Sandisk, Kingston etc All Uk original brands but may be an issue with Vero, any ideas??

Well memory, in ANY Flavor is a VERY High Risk caragory, were you asked to produce Invoices? And if so were they from LEGIT Suppliers, do you know if they checked with those suppliers about you?

Yep was asked to produce a whole bunch of things like invoices, suppliers, photo id etc

Invoices are not a problem as they are legit, its the stealth photo id i can never get past. Was thinking of selling non branded memory cards maybe will catch less vero attention or some other product.

Non branded works - will distract the competition who might be reporting for the sake of it.

Ok so you DO Know why you accounts are going down, Its the Photo ID.

Well I will tell you that Ebay is going to want a Photo ID from just about EVERY SELLER at some Point, if you are selling things like Branded Memory it is a sure bet that they will be looking for Photo ID. So you either must imporve the Quality of you Photo ID's or Try this:

Create a NEW account set (Ebay/Paypal) and start to sell on it Immediatly, only this time Sell EITHER Items NOT FOUND on Websites like DHGate or Items That have NO BRAND NAME and that ARE NOT Designed Exactly like a Famous Branded Item, Im pretty sure that the account will last

Good idea, was thinking the exact thing of selling non brand items.

Improve the photo id may help get back these 2 limited paypal accounts so worth a shot. Was that a suggestion you can help with directly?

Improve photo ID? So do some people actually attempt to use this?

Are you using the same 3 Dongle?

Like rsot said above non branded is the best way go, I sell nothing but non brand items on on new accounts now until I get at least 50-100 feedback, I got hit with mc010 on 1 of them talked this guy at ebay and even told him my supplier was dhgate and he reinstated my account just told me to be careful of the non-authentic items on there, he sounded like the same guy I talked to before from another account, I think he recognized my voice and liked what I was doing lol.

Yes same 3 dongle

Thanks for this info, non branded items is the way it seems ...

you say £400-500 first couple of months, but how much are you doing at say 6 and 12 month point. Also what catagory are goods in, this will help us advise.....

whoa! a fellow human being on paypal CS, miracles do happen

Never got past 1st month. Memory cards,batteries & supplements.

The memory cards might be the problem. Also make sure you've read stealth fully.

Moving too non branded. Have read it several times now so I know this is not the problem.

Off the top of my head ...

There is your problem, eBay reads your MAC address. Many say eBay don't but trust me I know becuase I had the same problem and had to learn it the hard way. Do not use same Dongle

dude this issue always worries me, the MAC address, they can read it so multiple accounts are are linked ..how have you solved this, there are ways of cloning mac address but its to tech for me to understand...

Best thing to ensure a new IP in the U.K. is to get a dongle.

Cool, Thanks for this. So each seperate dongle provides a different mac address and that should do the job?
