Stealth :VPN safe to use?
 

I am not living in UK at the moment. So I did use VPN to have UK IP. After reading E-book, seriously concerned the safety of using VPN. I double tested the IPs in IPBURGER.COM, IPs are different but others showed in IPBURGER are the same, include where I am now.

I am so worried about all the information I've learned. Can EBAY or Paypal trace my other information showed in IPBURGER? If yes, any problems will be caused? linked?

Thanks

Your flag needs to match your actual location.

It is advised NOT to use VPN a lot on the forum

If IPburger can see the info, so can EB and PP.

You need to look into VPS. Much safer than VPN

In which case you are leaking your real IP. eBay only need to pick this up a single time depending on what you are selling to perform a review on your account and possibly shut you down.

Well, I don't know what's good /whats bad about the information on IPBURGER. I login 2 VPN lines, different IPs yes. From E-book, EBAY may suspend an account due to same IP. So if IPs are different, it won't get big problems, right? Although under 2 IPs, the original address (Where I am living) are the same?



Many thanks

Likely better to research VPS - you have enough knowledge about IT to know that you are using a VPN so...anyhow, the issue is that MANY VPNs have been identified by eB as being risky IP so they are blacklisted.

Really depends on the provider - are you using a popular VPN service?

I checked the prices, both VPN and VPS. VPS is much higher than VPN. So If I am going to create "lots of "stealth accounts, not workable for using VPS.

The way I read this is that you are using the same address for more than 1 eBay account. If that is the case then you will have caused a link.

And VPN may be much cheaper, there is a reason for that. It is not anywhere near as good. A VPS needs to be used, or dial up. What is your actual location if it not in the UK?

Why are you being silly?

You want to trade on ebay uk but want to use the cheapest methods?
