Stealth Addresses
 

I'm looking for advice on the format of a stealth address. Is it just the house number and post code they are looking to match?

Eg real address:

Mr Homer J Simpson
110A Springfield
Springfield City
SP1 1AA

Sealth address?
Mr Homer J Simson
Flat A
110 Springfields
Springfield village
SP1 1AA

1. The difference being the "Flat A"
2. The pluralising of the estate (fields)
3. The village name used instead of the postal town (city)

The stealth address is a 100% correct address for the postman, but how would that cope with a Payp*l bot or automated verification?

So for registration:

I add a new Entropay card to my Entropay account and add the stealth details. (if actually necessary)

Register with ebay/ payp*l with stealth address.
Verify account with stealth Entropay.
Use stealth for billing and for receiving cheques/ items.

Is there any point of the ebay/ Payp*l registration process where you need to use your real details? The bank will have my real address of course.

Hi, yeah looks OK. Throw of the postcode by a letter aswell if you can.

All looks fine and no you won't have to give paypal any of your real info (apart from bank sort code/account number).

Just realised a typo on the Simpson. Should I mispell my surname?

I would consider using a completely different name seeing as you are using a variation of a previously suspended address....

CaptainJack

Name seems too close. NeedS more variation.

you can use H J Simson maybe more better ;)

If you did this would it still come to the address?

Also would it trigger something on paypal if you changed your address details too much?

Good questions..
I never use an address associated with suspended ebay accounts. I cant 'cos I am a new person LOL.
Gone are the days of having no access to an address. It is best to have everything ready B4 buying or selling on the account. Reduce problems as much as possible.:peace:

Yes, changing info can raise flags with paypal. OK, things need to be changed but that needs to be done carefully & correctly.


if it is not possible to get a new address, then that variation of address might be needed. To double check if the mail comes thro, you send yourself a postcard or letter to see if Royal Mail delivers. ;)

To be really successful with new stealth NEW addresses are best.
I do not recommend a variation of an old address. <---> I mean this

varation of address does work for me but becarefull if you try to change postcode then street and and door number should be valid and the post code must exists as in my case I used E12 4RP insted of valid E12 4RR and was kicked off by paypal in 2 weeks first they said my address is not valid and then they limit my account and told me to submit proof of address even the account was verified over the phone with 4 digit code

aslam, just to clarify...did you register with the variation 4RR or did you change to 4RR after verification?

Surely changing your address to a slight variation would raise an alarm!

^^ you register with variation

Are all you talking about Primary postage addresses "Your main postage address for purchases"?

Or Paypal Address ?

Because I've checked these addresses on my ebay account and they come under a few different things.

My Primary Postage addresses is my stealth address and my Paypal addresses are my stealth address first then under that is my address with a couple of changes to the address. And the name is still the stealth name.

I did register with 4RR and they throw me out during there verification even in 1 week they gave me message on login screen that your address details are not valid and it is because the postcode was invalid 4RR doesn't esixt. So I believe chaning complete address is 100% best solution plus if not possible to change address then keep the post code same and change door number or and temper little bit street name

thanks

I tried your postcodes in the Royal Mail postcode finder but they don't come up, so that's probably why Paypal can't verify you.

I tried 1LG instead of 1PG, 1LG is close to my actual street and a typo away on the keyboard. ;)

I want an ebay operative acount! Have anyone it?

what do you mean by operative account?

think he means ebay employees account? yea right

Is it better to have a use common surname eg smith? or will that increase my chances of getting linked to an existing ebay user who is already suspended?

no smith wont link you to other users, in itself
