Multi-account Amazon UK - VPN required? - Xeleon - 01-22-2021

Hi guys,

As put in the title, I'm wondering if it's essential to use a VPN when creating the account, making a few legit purchases and finally performing the SE?

I am aware that I should change all account related info. New name, address, credit card etc.

Much appreciated!
Cheers Smile

I found that it may be a good idea, however, would Tor browser suffice? As far as I can tell, Tor browser directs ur IP across the world, meaning it might not necessarily be the same every time you visit Amazon UK. Would this be an issue? Smile

Absolutely.

Amazon Is very good In detecting multi-accounting, so It's crucial to run behind a VPN.

Thanks !

Would Tor Browser suffice, or should I use a static VPN proxy to ensure my fake IP is the same whenever I log in Smile

In terms of anonymizing your IP for that reason alone, Tor will certainly suffice.

If you plan to keep using the account, do use a static VPN/IP.

Amazon Is known to lock accounts due to different IPs being used on the same account, namely because they believe It could be compromised. I'm not saying that It will happen, but rather there's every possibility that It can happen.

Thank you! I appreciate your help Smile

I'll see if I can find a VPN service that allows me to maintain the same static IP.

You're very welcome.

NordVPN provides a dedicated IP that's unique to your account.

Here's a screenshot of mine. Simply select It and It will connect thereafter.
