eBay Account Issues

eBay has become the undeniable leader in online shopping and e-commerce. If you are in business, you will be well aware of the huge profits that eBay can provide to the retail industry.

However, like any other business, eBay has its own risks. Besides counterfeit products, falling victim to phishing scams, shipping difficulties or payment issues, there is one more important aspect to manage risk, which is the issue of eBay account bans, which happen all the time and are hard to find the reason.

Losing your eBay account, along with all your listings and connections, is a scary situation for a business, but there is no need to worry too much, as there are effective steps you can take to protect yourself, such as by using an eBay stealth account.

What exactly is an eBay hidden account?

A stealth account is essentially an account that functionally belongs to you, but is designed in such a way that its ownership cannot be traced back to you. Since there is no foolproof way to prevent an eBay ban, it is wise to create multiple stealth accounts. The more accounts you establish, the safer your accounts will be. Depending on the size of your business, you can start with a small number of accounts and then expand as needed.

These accounts allow you to manage multiple eBay identities without any obvious connection between them, so if one of your accounts is banned, you can continue to conduct business using the other accounts, ensuring your business is not interrupted, thus ensuring a stable source of income.

Imagine if your only eBay account suddenly became inaccessible. In this case, not only would you lose communication with existing customers, but you would also miss out on potential buyers.

Additionally, eBay stealth accounts have proven to be extremely valuable for avoiding eBay’s selling restrictions, which primarily affect new sellers. These restrictions typically limit the number of items that can be sold to 10 items, with a maximum total value of $500 per month. eBay stealth accounts can help bypass these restrictions.

Using static residential proxies to manage eBay stealth accounts

We recommend combining a static residential proxy with the Fingerprint Browser tool. Fingerprint Browser has no limit on the number of profiles, allowing you to have as many different proxy profiles as you manage eBay stealth accounts. Once the network environment is ready, you can browse the eBay website to collect cookies and ensure the legitimacy of your stealth account.

Additionally, proxies allow you to select the precise market location you’re interested in. For best results, align your proxy location with the country you intend to sell in. For example, if your eBay seller account is associated with the United States, select the United States as your proxy location.

Finally, using an eBay stealth account proxy ensures that online activity does not adversely affect others who share your Internet connection. Without a proxy, an eBay ban could compromise the eBay account of your family, roommate, or coworker, so it is critical to maintain the correct IP address and browser cookies specific to each eBay account.

Is it difficult to set up multiple stealth accounts?

Setting up multiple stealth eBay accounts may seem like a lot of work, but it's worth it. The basic principle is to make sure each account has different personal data, including your name, email address, phone number, PayPal account associated with your eBay account, and IP address.

1. Name: For account verification purposes, you may be required to have a debit or credit card with a verified name on it. In this case, ask a friend, family member, colleague, or someone you trust enough to provide their information.

2. Email: To create a stealth account, you will need to generate a new email address. We recommend using Gmail because eBay tends to trust it.

3. Phone number: eBay may ask to verify your email via mobile phone. Instead of getting a new SIM card, you can use a service that provides a new number, such as TextFree Web or Hushed.

4. Address: It is usually safe to use your actual address, as eBay will not usually link accounts based on this address.

5. PayPal: It is critical that you do not link your eBay hidden account to the same PayPal account. Instead, you can choose another payment method or set up a hidden PayPal account, which is essentially a "hidden account within a hidden account."

6. IP Address: Setting up and using an eBay stealth account requires creating a new online identity, including a new IP address and a unique digital fingerprint. This can be accomplished by using a proxy .
