[live]

Introduction


So if you use eBay or PayPal, then this guide is for you.

If you're receiving money on PayPal, and somehow, your PayPal account ends up limited, then you will find this useful.

If you're getting auctions delisted and your eBay accounts are getting constantly banned, then make sure to read this.

And if you have no idea what eBay or PayPal is, you're lucky. Perhaps read this anyway, it might be entertaining.


This guide is going to be split into 3 pieces. It is as follows:


1. How to go stealth on eBay and PayPal

2. Safety Guide for PayPal - How to use PayPal without getting limited

3. Safety Guide for eBay - How to use eBay without getting suspended

The goal of this guide is to teach you some common suspension issues so
that it’ll save you a lot of stress and frustration in the long run.



Basic Stealth Information for eBay and PayPal


With every account, you need to do the following things:

1. Different IP

2. Different user account on your computer (you can create new ones from the control panel)

3. Don't mix and match different accounts, it will link them together and all will get banned.


How to change your IP if you're in the United States or Canada:


To do this, log into your router (if you have a router) at 192.168.1.1
or 192.168.2.1 or 192.168.0.1 (depending on your router), and manually
change your MAC address (a couple digits is fine), and save the
settings. Afterwards, turn off your router and your cable modem for 10
minutes and turn them back on. Use whatismyip.com to check that your IP
address has changed.


• Go to whatismyip.com to check your current IP address

• Log into your router

• Change the last 3-4 digits on your MAC address (should be an option inside the router)

• Save changes, and cut the power to your router and your cable modem

• Start them up again 10 minutes later

• You should have a new IP address now

• Check at whatismyip.com to confirm that IP address has changed

How to use PayPal without getting limited


If you want to learn how to prevent getting suspended on PayPal, you're
going tohave to first understand a little bit about how it works. First
off, PayPal limits accounts with suspicious or "high-risk" activity in
order to prevent losses. The way it does this is by robots that are
trained to identify certain behavior - certain triggers cause them to
freeze up accounts.


Now, here's the thing - they use robots to monitor your accounts. Since
there are millions of PayPal accounts and thousands of transactions
happening at every second, it is very unrealistic for them to have a big
room of people monitoring every little activity. So these is
essentially what happens in a nutshell when a limitation occurs.


Suspicious activity being done --> Robot picks up on the suspicious
activity and triggers limitation --> PayPal asks for additional
information --> PayPal human employee reviews information to
reinstate your account or permanently limit it.

But here's the good thing about robots - they're actually very
predictable. If you can learn what these triggers limitations, you can
avoid them like land mines. So without further delay, let's start
learning some of the types of behaviors thatcause limitations.


Site Owners: Before you attach a new stealth PayPal to your website, READ THIS FIRST.


If you’ve had a PayPal attached to your website before and it gets
limited, PayPal then blacklists your domain name from ever using PayPal
again. So if you try toattach a new stealth account directly to your
site, you’ll get banned again. Luckily, there is a solution.


Solution: If you use a third-party checkout tool that uses PayPal you’ll
be able to accept PayPal without fear of being limited. Another thing
that you can use is host the checkout on a different domain name so that
the PayPal doesn’t see it. I’ve seen some people manually invoice their
customers using PayPal too.



0. Always know your stealth basics


Learn how to access stealth accounts without getting limited. That means
no proxies, no IP's that change every 2 seconds (so no TOR or HMA).


Step 1 - Know your basics!


Here are some of the most common mistakes committed:

a. Use proxies, HMA, TOR, or any of those "IP hiding softwares". eBay
and PayPal have blacklisted these IPs'. If you use them, you will get
banned, simple as that.

b. Not changing your user account between different PayPal or eBay accounts.

The exception is if you use a VPS (remote computer) as the files are separated automatically then.


Solutions:

a. Change your IP legitimately through your cable or DSL company. Or
even easier, just buy a windows-based VPS with an IP in the same country
as your PayPal or eBay.

b. Go to your control panel, create a separate user for your new PayPal
or eBay account. Use your PayPal and eBay exclusively just on that user
account. Even easier, just buy a windows-based VPS with an IP in the
same country as your PayPal or eBay.


1. Moving money too fast


Cause: One of the most common ways to get an account suspended is by moving money too fast. Let me give you an example.

Let's just say that you received $200 right. Then 5 minutes later you
try sending that $50 to someone else or try to buy something with it.
Boom, your account gets limited. In PayPal's eyes, the reason why they
limited you is that when you move money too fast, it looks suspicious,
so they limit your account and stop you dead in the tracks.


So it applies to:

Receive money --> send money

Receive money --> withdraw money


Solution: When you receive money in your PayPal account, let it sit in
there for 2-3 days before you try spending it, withdrawing it, or doing
anything with your money.


2. Taking in too much money


Cause: The second most common way to get an account suspended is by
taking in too much money at one time. Look at it from PayPal's
stand-point. If a guy that doesn't have an established history of
receiving large amounts of money suddenly starts getting hundreds of
dollars at one time, it looks pretty suspicious. Don't be the guy that
receives too much money at one time, or you'll get PayPal limiting you
and asking you for personal details.


Solution: So how much money is too much? On a newer account, start off
by taking payments less than or around $100 and don't let the total
balance on the account get above $500. If the money gets near $500, wait
a couple days and withdraw it or send it to another account. Of course,
when your stealth account gets older, you can start getting larger
amounts of money, but if you really want to be safe, that's the general
guideline you should follow. Now if you need to receive more money than
that, just use multiple stealth accounts to break the payments up.


Another potential outcome if you take in money too fast is that they
will ask you for social security information in order to make sure
you're properly taxed. Now PayPal quotes that this number is something
like 200 transactions of $20,000 a year, whichever comes first. However,
if you come out of the gate taking in a lot of money, they'll ask you
for social security much sooner. So the best way to combat this is to
just receive money through different accounts so the funds are more
dispersed.



3. Spending/Withdrawing Exact Amounts of Money/Not leaving any money left in PayPal


Cause: Let's just say that you have $600 in your PayPal balance. If you
try to go ahead and withdraw $600, you'll get limited. Always try to
leave some money in PayPal, at least 10% (don't make it exact). When you
withdraw like all your balance, it makes PayPal think that you're
robbing the bank and skipping town. That means it's suspicious, so don't
do this.


Solution: Always try to leave some money in PayPal (at least 10%). So
for example, if you're withdrawing $600, leave like 60-70 dollars in
there, don't withdraw everything. You'd be surprised how many people get
limited by this sort of problem.


4. Error: When you try to send money, and get this message: "Add funds
in your PayPal before sending money" when you do have money in the
available balance


Cause: When you try to move money too fast on a relatively new PayPal
account. PayPal has this this filter that prevents you from sending out
money. If you have a relatively new account and get this message, your
account is under a soft review. However, don't freak out, because
chances are, if you don't do anything else that's suspicious during this
time, they'll usually release the balance in a couple of days.


Solution: When you get this message, don't try to send money out over
and over again. Just leave the balance for a week and come back to try
to send it again. It could last up to 21 days, so try again here and
there. Most of the time, it's resolved after a couple of days.


5. Ask for "identity verification" through phone call.


If this happens, just press cancel, and they will let you confirm other
information, specifically your full bank account numbers. After you
enter this, your account will go back to normal status.


Safety Guide for eBay - How to not get Limited


Using eBay without getting suspended is very similar to using PayPal
without getting limited. This shouldn't be very surprising because
PayPal is owned by eBay. The only thing that differs really is the
function. eBay is used to buy and sell items, PayPal is used to send and
receive money. So let's get started with the most common suspensions on
eBay.


1. MC999 Suspension - When you're a relatively new user and you get this notice when you're trying to list your first item.


So you just got an account, and you list your first item. After 12-24
hours later, your item gets taken down and they give you this notice
when you log into your account. However, don't panic, because this is
relatively common - about 25% of new accounts get this the first time
that they list.


Solution: Within 48 hours of getting this notice, call eBay up directly
at their phone number. I believe it's 1-866-877-3229. Talk to the
customer service representative and ask them why your account got
limited. Then answer some questions and confirm account details with
them. The questions that they're going to ask will go something like
this:


First, they will transfer you to an account specialist.

This account specialist is going to ask you the following questions:

Is this your own item (respond yes, and nod your head)

Is somebody helping you with listing (respond no, and shake your head)

Are you drop shipping the item or have it in your possession (tell them
that it's in your possession. do NOT let them know you're drop shipping,
even if you actually are).


And that should be it. Then they'll take 2-3 minutes to review your account, and give you 3 possible responses:


Possible response 1
: If you listed an item that is relatively low risk (non-branded or a
brand that's not commonly counterfeited), then they'll tell you that
they've unlimited your account and you're ready to list again.


Possible response 2
: If you listed an item that is pretty high risk (a brand that is
commonly counterfeited and protected by their VERO - verified rights
owner program), then they will tell you that you're selling items that
are too risky, and that they cannot do business with you anymore. At
this point, they will permanently suspend your account.


Possible response 3
: If you list an item that is high risk, they will ask for you to
verify your identity with the account by faxing in your ID and some
personal information. Of course, if you have a stealth account, chances
are you won't be able to provide this documentation.


This brings me to the second most common suspension reason.


2. You're selling items that are too high risk!


One of the most common mistakes when it comes to selling on eBay is that
people think they can sell just about anything. This couldn't be
further from the truth. On eBay, items are either high risk or low risk.
It all depends on the brand name of the item. Brands like Dre Beats are
high risk whereas other brands like Abercrombie and Fitch are low risk.
If you list a high risk item, your item will get delisted from eBay and
you'll get suspended (if you're new, you'll get suspended permanently.
If you're a veteran, they'll put one strike on your account - you can
get three strikes before getting perm-banned).


Solution: Know which items are high risk and which ones are low risk.
The only definitive way is to just go ahead and list some items and mark
down which ones get removed and which ones don't.


The key to eBay is simple. Start slowly without selling items that are
high risk until you have a good amount of feedback and established
selling history. Disburse sales through multiple accounts to diversify
your risk and decrease the volume per account.

Or use your regular home internet ip for 1 account, a vpn for another account and public access for a third account. And yes, third-party checkout tool that uses PayPal is a good idea. 2*C*O is one of them.

If you log in to Paypal as 'Mister A' and right after that you log in as 'Mister B', using same windows acc, they will think it is weird. "Why would anyone honest person need a two or more Paypal accounts? Let's investigate this a bit deeper!"

It's all about cookies in your browser.

Ever wondered why eBay seems to advertise items related to your searches you did days, weeks, or months ago, even when you were not logged in? Cookies!

Different windows acc, different cookies, more safety.

I can actually relate to this, since this is what happens to my account and get limited permanently. Even my brother's account with different name and verification they limit it.

One question though, Paypal said that I could not use their service anymore. Is this true or any other way I can sign up using my name again? My account got limited 2 years ago.

I am currently using my gf's account for now but love to sign up back again.

I also have funds in that limited account and ready for withdrawal after paypal releases the money after couple of months but I am afraid it may trigger the system to check on the ip I uses then relates to the other account.

thanks in advance..

You Can do tow things -

1- Change your IP and Clear your cokies before attempting to withdraw from the limited account (though it won't really matter most) but for the safety of you Gf's account (don't use the same IP to access a limited Account and a Good account - even different names - same IP will link those two and get the other one limited as well)

2- Simply Create a New User on your Windows and withdraw your cash...

i have got my PP cash out from a Limited Account - and yet got my account back on track using Phone verification and Bank Account.

got some few screenshot for you if you care to see proof.
