Did they all go down the exact same time?

What do you use for the telephone number?
Do you use a VPS or VPN?

If its not either of these it can be flash cookies.

Same items being sold on the accounts?
Similar prices?
Clearing EXIF data on photos?

As Bunneh says Flash cookies is a MASSIVE problems if you're using portable browsers and having set them up correctly.

What was the suspension notice? MC113?

I suspect EXIF

no funneling of funds between the accounts correct?

no buying or selling of cheap digital items?

It literally sounds like exif.

If you're not sending money, you log all IP's, items aren't similar, pricing isn't similar...you should be good.

You also use different windows accounts.

Did you have any FLASH type programs installed on any of the user accounts?

Were they all administrator accounts?

Would also recommend looking into VMware to manage multiple accounts and definitely make sure to clear EXIF data

Had one stealth killed today. Also MC113. Another account got one of its items removed - MC067. Time is +/- the same (1 hour difference). Item was not the same, but for ebay, it could look the same, as both were different versions of the same product. Exifs removed everything different. Moreover, I was surprised that the one that got MC113, was fully verified, and was not selling anything at the moment for a couple of days. Can it be an issue, that a couple of days prior MC113, i suggested to one of my customers, who wanted to buy the item that I ran the stock of, to buy the same from my "competitor" who was my other stealth?

sucks to hear! This happened to me a little over a month ago. I lost 7 accounts within a 3 minute period. Like you, I did all the stealth things also. Just curious did it say "due to security concerns"?

It says "Security concerns" in 99% of all cases. For example, lots of high-risk items sold in a small period of time will guarantee a suspension. But... they write in MC067, that "there were issues with the same items previously, from other buyers". So, even though these items are allowed by EB T&Cs, they actually are not because some scumbags already abused ebay with them, so they take preventive measures. So I suggest selling something that is not abused too often, even if your own instance is 100% authentic, because these guys at EB are not able to check if your item is authentic or not, they just have statistics, which tells them that "something like this causes issues and should be banned in advance regardless its authenticity".
