Default Question about ebay passwords

What if I had several sealth account and I used the same password for each. Can Ebay link the accounts? I don't think that Ebay knows my real password because it's blocked out

Actually yes.. you do not want to use the same password for each of your accounts. It's a linking factor.

I don't think accidentally typing in an old password would cause problems. But, yes, do have different passwords for each account.

I would say BE ON THE SAFE SIDE!

I actually have around 8 accounts with all the same password. Nothing wrong in over 45 days. We will see...

but as aspkin said it CAN be a linking factor

Many threads regarding this topic.

The general consensus is "Not Recommended" for unlinked accounts.

yeah, i wouldn't put same password on multiple accounts....time,money,effort has already been spent making new stealth accounts....why risk it by being lazy with the passwords.

When there's something like this you can change then change it. Even if ebay don't detect it now, it's better to be preperared in case they eventually do.
