Unless you like money sitting around.

I read this a few days ago but I want to confirm it: when doing the triangle, how quickly should you withdraw funds on the other side? In order to avoid closure

the very second they appear as available..duh..

How many accounts using the same SS are you able to use without getting shut down?

Is anyone sustainably using more than 2 accounts per SS?

Yes, I have 4-- and stupidly lost my fifth when I inadvertently sent payment between two accounts with same SS. I have been AP'ing for nearly 2 years.

I'll be starting to use AP for the first time this month to help meet some minimum spend, and just curious about one item in your set up. For your 4 accounts with the same SS, are you using the same card on each one to send payment to the outside account?

Just thinking that since I have a legit second account with different SS, name, and bank (but same address), I could knock out my needed spend in a month with my normal spend plus AP if I open a second account with my SS.

Has anyone sent money to someone using AP from their real checking account? I did this last Monday (6/9) and the transaction is still showing as pending.

Yes, it takes about a week. 5-7 business days is what the website states, and it's accurate.

Not currently, but for a good while, I was using the same Capital One 2% CB card across all my accounts.

AP Addresss and Last Names
 
I just setup an AP scheme with family consisting of the following:

A>B>C>D>E>A

Some of the people have the same last name
There is a total of 3 different addresses between everyone.

Has anyone heard of people getting shut down for sending payments to others with the same last name or home address?

I'm trying to strategize if I should separate people by last name or home address, both, or if neither matter.

Thanks for the help.

Holy complicated mess BatMan.
No matter how "strategic" you get, you can still get shut down.

ap
 
if it's a scheme, you will get shut down quickly. I have only 3 accts, much easier to track. All have diff BA,/SS # but same address. going for 2 years.

Just do it.

If you get shut down, you get shut down.

Nothing really matters.

We do not know how exactly the Bezos headhunters operate.

I am going strong using the similar scheme for 7 months.

Would take me 3 years doing A-B only.

Using more transfer partners will decrease chances of shutdown.
But make sure you don't link same bank accts or same CC to more than one acct.
Also as been reported, try to use different computers as some suggested they may doing a trail tracking transactions by using same IP address.
Hope this helps.

Not sure why Amazon will shut you down using Serve? I would have thought it would be the other way around, that Serve might shut you down instead of Amz as Serve only accepts a real credit card link? Maybe I' m wrong here?

IP tracking is a forum legend.
