Keep getting Suspended :mad:

[GreenGhost]

Every stealth account that I have been trying to sell on for the past month has been getting suspended immediately! What the heck am I doing wrong??

FYI: Every detail is new
address name, diff windows user id, diff new ip address email address etc.

I buy stuff first and after having 10-12 buying feedback and after the account is more than 1 month old sometimes 4 months old I try to list simple items literrally: book, iphone case, ipad case

and this latest account I listed just three books (took my own pictures) had them exif data removed like always and within 15 minutes I always receive MC067 and MC099 what the heck am I doing wrong?

oh and btw I cursed eBay representative out this time but the little punk on the other end of the phone DID NOT CARE.

please guys help me. Thanks in Advance

eba y is going insane with new sellers, I don't think the problem is with how you are registering the account but with what you are selling and how you are selling it.

As my first sale I once put up a harry potter book for $6.99 with free shipping - got a permanent suspension notice from eba y. This apparently meant I'm too much of a risk... whatever ridiculous algorithm they are using it is super sensitive when you are making your first sale.

I would suggest for practice opening a new account and trying to sell something on it without waiting or buying anything first. Upload only 1 item to ebay, do not make the starting price too low or too high (99 cent will give you the boot).

And remember - upload only 1 non-risk listing.

@GreenGhost, source of your phone number? Just looking for all the ins of your creation.

[GreenGhost]

VOIP the phone numbers are set in the town/city and state in which the zip codes on the accounts are addressed! please some other folx chime in too

[rsot]

So unlikely that your numbers may have been used before?

Is your pp verified before you started selling?

[jamcocktail21]

You are doing something wrong...I have a few new accounts and works great


How do you change your ip?

[Ebayorbust]

Are you verifying and confirming your paypal accounts?

paypal accounts are fully verified set to premier accounts with all limits removed before I even start buying on ebay accounts

[GreenGhost]

could it be the items that I am buying before I start to sell?

or am I selling to quickly after I have bought a lot of cheap items?

[First Edition]

It could be the items you start to sell, it is most likely the VPN you are using.

It could be A LOT of variables. Have you purchased the stealth guide?

[GreenGhost]

I got the stealth guide yes

Since when did you get 'our' book?

[First Edition]

Drop the vpn and change your ip. What kinds of items are you selling? Do you list many items to start with? something you're not seeing is getting you flagged

[GreenGhost]

the last time I listed three used good condition books then bam mc067 and mc099

[First Edition]

have you tried listing one?

[Sneakee]

Books are a risky item too?

Random story, I got hit with one of those mc warnings (mc099??...something like that) on my 3 week old account. It said to call Ebay. I did and actually got someone who was pretty nice.

He took a look at my account and said it was linked to a suspended account. He says it's not a big deal and that I probably went to a public computer to use my Ebay account. He said there was nothing linking it to the other account so it was just a fluke (actually, I know what happened but it's a very very long story that doesn't matter).

He then looked at the items I was selling. All vintage books. He said those weren't "items we worry about". He fixed the warning on my account and I'm all good.

Unless, only newer books are risky?

VPN will do it everytime. I don't understand why if you are in the USA why use VPN when there's tons of other ip's to use? VPN should only be used outside the USA because it's the only way to get a USA ip?

[biggunn]

VPN's do not work at all. Proxies do not work at all. VPS's barely work. If you are in the US, you have no need for any of these.

I used VPN just ONCE a long time ago,
and they immediately restricted my account,
told me to give them a call back.

They lifted the restriction when I told them,
I was abroad/overseas on business. They believed it,
and set my account back.

Never again did I use VPN.

I figure it was the VPN - broadband block in process.
