This is how using multiple windows user accounts would not completely prevent eb accounts from being linked.
If they put something within any system folder, no matter how many accounts you have, they would link them all.

It is easy. Buy a remotely on/off power outlet.
I bought one for $12 for my modem.
I use remote to turn on/off for every mac address.
power cycle takes about a minute to get connect and new ip.

How do you make sure they dont trace you?

iam sorry but i have to ask, why would you need so many accounts?

maybe you should consider getting a merchant account / status if you need to sell alot.

anyway, just putting an idea out here.

get a MK802

buy some sd cards. boot the mini pc via the sd´s, and do what is suggested in this thread (switch through browsers).
all you need to do now is switch through the sd´s (if it works, like i think it could).

wouldn't having multiple modem/routers do the same thing (create a new mac and unique IP?) or is the IP you get supplied by the ISP so it wouldn't make a difference?

You can have only one router for each modem.

I already been doing that for years. I use google chrome for the main account and my 2nd account firefox (both real) but if i try to sell the same category on one or the other at the same time. I get a warning from ebay etc.

I haven't got this warning in like 18+ months.

But You can have 4 different browsers. Google chrome, firefox, IE, & Safari. All running at the same time all logged in. Now I don't think this would be a good idea to do.

But what about IP addresses???

I mean if I get 1 VPS account. I could just have 3 browsers, and 1 IP address with 3 different accounts selling the same category?

I don't think this would work out to well either. But what do you do about IPs?

There are a 100 reasons.

One is to be Stealth-Stealth. :spy:

In some niches only PP is the accepted way to pay and you will lose an enormous amount of sales if you use anyone other than PP.

Another reason is that Merchant Accounts are just like PP also. I have merchant accounts but they have the same friggin rules as PP.

Reserves, Rolling reserves, credit checks, etc...

I could probably give 30 reasons with even thinking.

What about IP addresses? If you only get linked on IP alone and are careful enough is that not a problem?

Re: How To: Easily manage multiple stealths on 1 PC
 

Pretty old thread.

IP linking by itself as a one off may not be enough, but its so easy to avoid there is no reason to take the risk

Re: How To: Easily manage multiple stealths on 1 PC
 

How about a GNU/Linux distro?

They are far more efficient than windows and more secure.
Some of them are particularly designed to be resource-efficient.
elementary os is one that comes to mind.

Also, store what you can in the cloud.

Re: How To: Easily manage multiple stealths on 1 PC
 

I was thinking I could get a Hot Spot from ATT and use that connection to my laptop with all of the stealth accounts on it.
each time you connect you get a different IP...wouldn't that solve the IP issues?

Re: How To: Easily manage multiple stealths on 1 PC
 

IP addresses can still be repeated, even if unlikely, so still need to keep track of them.

Re: How To: Easily manage multiple stealths on 1 PC
 

does ebay monitor ip addresses when you log on or when you list an item ?

Re: How To: Easily manage multiple stealths on 1 PC
 

Assume it monitors IP addresses at all time, even when just browsing.

Re: How To: Easily manage multiple stealths on 1 PC
 

Don't care whenever they monitor IP address, I only make sure that I am using right account with right IP address and do not login when browsing.

Re: How To: Easily manage multiple stealths on 1 PC
 

They will still be able to see your IP address and they will still be able to see the cookies even if your are not logged in.

Re: How To: Easily manage multiple stealths on 1 PC
 

Only if you still have login cookie exist. Otherwise, there is no way for them to see who you are.
I never login to browsing only machine. Each seller account has a dedicated VM. All IPs are monitored and tracked using a spreadsheet to make sure each VM has unique IP address.

Re: How To: Easily manage multiple stealths on 1 PC
 

I have read about browser fingerprinting. With that it's allegedly possible to identify you even without cookies. Does eBay or Amazon use that?

Re: How To: Easily manage multiple stealths on 1 PC
 

@Teasly

all ecommerce companies have that ability.

paypal/ebay/amazon can use techinques to ID sellers.

That is why we have guidelines to help users reduce being detected for stealth.

Quite fun really.

Changing use of browsers also helps

Re: How To: Easily manage multiple stealths on 1 PC
 

I use a virtual machine with VmWare Workstation. I only have the one stealth account at the moment. I intend to make more virtual machines and have one stealth account on each.

Its handy because the virtual machines can be setup with enough memory to run smoothly. And I can go to full screen and its like using a new computer. I can also suspend each machine so when loading up, it only takes a few seconds and I`m straight into the browser that I`m using on it.

I`m looking to setup another account soon, I will probably need help with it. However, I think I got the jist.
