Making a New Account: New Address
 

I'm trying to open a new ebay/paypal account in another name. Ebay has limited by selling from 1000 to 600 a month, and now I want to open new accounts in someone else's name (a relative). Thing is, this relative has the same address as me. Would it be safe still to use this address or will I have to find a new one? All I'm doing is letting someone else open a new account, and then going to use that account. Will I still be under the radar for doing this? I have read eBay Stealth's guide.

In a word.....NO

Making more accounts is a great idea but totally not advisable to use friends or family details.
You have a working account right now that you would be totally jeopardising by thinking of opening another in the same address.
Stealth means "" new everything ""

It is going to be new, new everything. Only thing I may have to keep is the physical address.

Re: Making a New Account: New Address
 

New everything...that means new address also :-)

Re: Making a New Account: New Address
 

Yep.Everything must be new.
You only leave you computer
All the rest is new !

That creates a link.

And the 1st thing that ebay will see is a 2nd account & wonder if it has been made to get around the limits placed on the other account.

They do not like that. Risk is too much.

Have a 2nd account but be an entirely new person, including address.

Like everybody said above........ALL NEW...that old address has ebola as far as eBay or paypal is concerned...it will kill whatever you attach it to!

Above are all very definately true, will be linked and banned if any old details are used on new account, just don't do it, create all new then best chance to continue on to success, just as easy to create a new address, as has been posted many times previously 'ma and pa' po boxes that can give you addresses that do not appear to be po boxes that can attract unwanted attention from eBay, looking for businesses like that that offer box numbers that be disguised a bit is ideal for you, or even look at post forwarding option, both ways to deal with nit using your own address for creating your account details and also for using for any returns you may get

Forget using the relative's info let alone the address - get the guide +/- read the forums - all the answers for good stealth are at your fingertips
