Read the book, everything looks easy except..

[Toolman89]

I have no friends or relatives. My stealth accounts need to be fairly large scale so my Paypal will get limited at some point and I'll have to overcome that obstacle.. apparently people here can help with this? And I'm not sure but as I'm Australian do they ask for a different set of id requirements?

And the other thing I'm not 100% sure about is withdrawing money. Do i just withdraw it to the new online bank account ive created for each account and then do a bank transfer to my original bank account i always use? I guess so, seems easy enough.

Not what you were asking for but I suggest you make friends if you say you don't have any. Did i interpret that correctly? Networking (person to person) is extremely valuable! Online relationships can only offer so much help.

I'd pay $$ for that help and I'd rather plan it beforehand before making my accounts so everything is sorted.

Since you just read the guide you most likely "think" you need to create accounts in family/friends name?

That is so NOT true.

The guide was updated about 2 years ago, a lot has changed since then.

Most of us are 100% Stealth. No friends name, no real accounts, etc...

I think of my Paypal accounts as temporary places to park money. Eventually they will most likely be limited, that's why I am constantly creating new accounts.

I run quite a bit of money thru each Paypal. One new PP account last me about 2 weeks. I get about 10k to 15k in it, then time to shut it down before PP starts asking about Social Security numbers.

I have to constantly rotate accounts to succeed at what I'm doing.

I recommend reading a lot here, especially in the Subsribers section. I normally won't give any detailed info in the Free Public forum section.

Good luck reading.

So is that what most people here do? I'm in Australia so luckily I don't have to worry about a SSN if it came to that. And you maintain the same eBay account but just attach a new Paypal every 2 weeks? Wouldn't eBay become suspicious if you change your paypal even somewhat frequently, let alone once every 2 weeks, or if you have multiple accounts, even once every 10 weeks.

Go on your local phone book website and use there info.

New IP each time iplocation.net store said ip in a excel document

And multiple user accounts

List low end items get 10 feedback...

my birthday is 93 and i have 8 stealths running with £600 in each one :P

I have close to 500 accounts and dead set against using any family or friends name, addresses and other info.

Why would you risk your family or friends accounts like that?

Many post they do this to make it easy on themselves.

Nothing good comes out of easy.

Hard work and some time cures all matters and things will start to fall into place.

[Toolman89]

Also just a simple question, in regards to adding the bank account, can I just keep adding sub accounts with my current bank for each account? As the bank account number will be different so that's all that's required, right?

[rsot]

Yes a different bank account number is important - try one of the sub accounts on a different stealth pp and see if it verifies ok.

Well looks like this wont be as easy as I thought - I have a Static IP address

The reason why I added "friends or family' as an option was because not everyone wants to go the "stealth" route. There are many different type of sellers... typically the active members here on the forum are more hardcore eBay sellers so stealth 100% is more favored for them but for the more passive seller a more subtle and carefully planned approach might work instead. Heck I create accounts with my real name almost 100% of the time now.. who cares, it's not an issue. An address, phone number, credit card are too easy to get to want to use a friend's or family member's information, though for some users they like to have that option. I think it's more about demonstrating alternative options then pushing it as the only options. Regardless it's all about your personal situation. I could go on but I think I made my point.

Have a smart phone that you can tether with?

[Toolman89]

Nope.. we are moving in March though and my roommate who currently has the internet in his name is moving on so I was always going to get a new internet service in my name for then. I'm not sure how I would go about having 2 ISP's in the same place/modem until then though?

[epain]

I have read the book over 10 times and still having some issues so I was going to take the easy way out by using family and friends info but after some great advice from veteran members like Sandy D, GreenBean and others, I am totally against that now. I will read the book 10 more times or just buy some accounts from here if I have to before ever thinking about using others info...

Look at getting a dongle or using your smartphone as a tether

Yep getting wireless, was the easiest and cheapest option.
