Exchanging Feedback
 

Say you have 10 + Stealth Accounts. You list $1 items and buy from each of the accounts and leave positive feedback. Is this a bad idea?
I mean its a lot cheaper lol for a new account. You would still pay each account through paypal..

Has anyone tried it?

feedback manipulation that will get you shut down FAST.

It can be done but has to be done ultra-stealth. The fact you are asking the question might mean you are not ready...or you have not experimented enough :)

I would not risk it in your case. All the best.

I dont understand the risk if everything in each account is stealth?

As rsot has said, so long as it is done carefully then it would be okay. You cannot risk linking the accounts via buying activity eg three accounts that always buy from the same few sellers.

If it is done once in a while it should be okay. The reason it is generally advised against is because some stealth users do not know where the line is drawn between discretion and ripping the arse out of it.

Requires practice and skill.

Have you got that yet?

IF and when ebay find out, they kill the accounts.

You appear to be disregarding the very dangerous chance of having your account(s) checked by a human.. You could link:croc:

I have done it with brand new accounts to get money into the account quickly and to get some quick feedback. I don't make a habit of doing it over and over though. Good luck!!

There are much easier ways to doing this. I tried this method when i was too lazy to think. The ip changing the account changing the logging in and out... ughh... such a pain.


And yes.. they do watch for this. Actually a couple of my accs received the MC letter claiming feedback manipulation. I racked up wayyyyyyy too much fb in one day :)

Account didn't take a hit. I think it was just a warning since they caught me 4 months later.............

GreenBean you are right, if some one looks they could actually figure it is the same person. I am saying just one feedback and not 100 but then that account will eventually sell a similiar item so yes they can be linked. I just dont know how else to gain feedback before i start selling as my items do need feedback.

I have previously been limited for buying 5 - 10 different cheap items from china/hong kong in one day and leaving feedback.
