Accounts linked via web servers?
 

Hi, I have two accounts and I have created a website for one of them. I would like to create a website for my stealth account but this would mean that both of them would be hosted by the same company.

Would this link the accounts? Would ebay go as far as doing a whois search as this would give them the same registration datails for both domains

Thanks

That`s a little too deep of an analysis TLSunny - the same company hosting is irrelevant in my honest opinion....I mean a lot of sites are hosted by goda ddy or something and they are not linked by that.

When you work with eb ay/pa yp al - worry more about IP, reg. info, cookies, etc.

Hope it`s clear.

lol @ TLSunny

I was thinking more like if they suspected and did a whois on both of the web site domain names, they would both come up with my name

dont put them both in the same name then.

For ebay to go that far, the behaviour of the seller has been very bad indeed....take that whatever way you like.

Ok brilliant, thanks.

I'm just trying to gauge to the correct level of paranoia

I'm think I'm almost there..... ish

Ah yes GB makes a solid point - register the domain under diff names - you can go stealth with that too...

Sometimes GD gives free anonymous hosting with their accounts. Or pay the extra money. What is it 10$?
