Please add your flag to your account here.
eBay/Paypal rules vari by country.
Go to your "User CP" and list your location.
This helps since eBay/Paypal Rules are different by country.
Thanks

I have done this numerous times...never a problem.

Every eBay account I am currently running and have ran in the past 1.5 years have ALL had the same exact password.
I have not been linked to a suspended account in over 2 years.

Now on a different note....
Every Paypal account I have or have had ALL have different passwords.

If I create a new user on my PC do I have to clean all cookies and Flash objects before embarking on creating a new stealth account please? OR I don't have to worry about this at all?

Thank you...

If you create a TOTALLY NEW user account on your PC, you do not have to clean the cookies and flash objects before proceeding.

So I've created my first stealth account but it occurs to me that if everytime I log into my account and use a different ip, wouldn't that look suspicious to ebay? Why is it that everytime this guy logs in, it's a different ip?

I am using an aircard to access internet so every day that I disconnect and reconnect, I am getting a new ip.

BTW, this I think is the perfect way to resolve the ip issue when making stealth accounts! Just need to keep good track of ip usage so as not to cross-contaminate accounts in case of a previously used ip coming up.

But does anyone know the answer to my question?

No, that is not suspicious. Same thing happens with dial up, nothing to worry about.

Does anyone know if eBay tracks Windows user account names? For example, if one is creating many eBay accounts, each with a different windows user account that has a sequential number (EB1, EB2, EB3, ...EB100 etc.), can eBay identify this? Ie., can Ebay read or know the user account name? Thanks

Absolutely impossible.

My answer is: not yet.

Other companies can, and do. Google and Amazon....

If Google and Amazon are able to track Windows user account names, why then doesn't eBay or Paypal I wonder?

OfiicialGenius posted that it is "absolutely impossible".

Certainly this is a "serious" question. Any more thoughts or experience?

just make your windows user name & vmware name match or similar to what name and infos you are using on that ebay & pp acct.

HurricaneHuntr · #38 05-16-2010

I use same l/p for every account, doing so otherwise would be a pain in the ass... Not to mention, all that stuff is encrypted, this is why they reset your password instead of telling you. Mostly because super secure systems like ebay/paypal nobody has access to the "password" file like old school linux days. It's all encrypted as soon as you press submit. And the file on their machine is encrypted, can you imagine if it wasn't ? It'd be hacked daily.

All of your accounts are linked if you use the same ip address for every account. When one goes down, they all go down. Then you will realize it was not a pain to make sure it is different.

i don't know why i said l/p that actually mean login/pass i should of said "password" lol yeah my ip changes everytime i reset it. I know that much lol

First Edition · #41 05-16-2010

You need a different password for each account also. If you use the same password for many accounts, they are very well likely to limit you.

Anything that can, will be used to track you.

I think you went a little bit overboard.

On the subject of multiple monitors. I have 3 running at once for my online poker. A 30" an 2 20"s. Complete overkill and complete nerd-a-tron!

Does this still hold true ? What happens if i open my ebay account on a large network eg at work and it so happens someone else on the network gets suspended does that mean my account along with any other person who logs in will go down also ? It cant be just IP address must be more too it than just IP and you will get suspended, can anyone confirm ?
