Title: TOR evil point really high, where to ask for whitelisting anonymous?
Post by: sellcollateral on December 17, 2015, 07:25:48 AM
Basically, what the title says  ;)

A little more details:
I ran a loan service (it's shut down by now), and as a result i'm stuck with between 5-10 accounts i got from loan defaulters. I'm not a crook, i'm not an account farmer, i just gave some loans to "bad" people without knowing it.
When trying to sell this collateral, a couple account hunters found out who i am, and they're tagging my sold accounts as soon as they change hands. I don't blame these guys, they're trying to do the right thing (i even understand their point of view, but i really want to recuperate my investment, even if it means selling the collateral).

So, i decided to go full-anonymous and register an account over TOR... That way i had a fresh start with an account to sell my leftover collateral, and i could protect my buyers from negative tagging. I expected some evil points, and some dust to be payed in order to use the anonymous account.

After signing up, i saw the "dust" that had to be payed was between $15 and $20 (in BTC).

My question:
Is there another way of creating an account that is anonymous, but doesn't result in a big penalty? OR, is there an appeal procedure for my case that doesn't require me to use a non-anonymous account to contact a staff member for a whitelisting? I cannot post anything with the anonymous account, so i cannot make a thread in the meta-section to explain my case. The only contact info on the page to unlock my account is theymos's email address, but it's clearly indicated it cannot be used to ask for a free whitelisting.

I could just message a staff member from the account i'm using now (the non-anonymous one), and ask them politely to whitelist my anonymous account, but that would defeat the purpose... I could still be tracked down because i used a non anonymous account to ask for the whitelisting.

Does anybody have any suggestions? Please don't flood the thread with the explanation of evil points, dust fees, the reason behind the system... I searched the forum and found all that stuff already. I just want to know if there is a way to go anonymous without paying that much money for my anonimity.

Depends how anon you want to be. Not sure why you want to go full ninja just to sell accounts but try Googling free proxies and try them until you find one that isn't proxy banned.

Well... If i do something, i do it right ;)
I know there is no need to go full ninja for a couple account sales, but it's still sad that you cannot go full-ninja without paying a lot of money to register an account :)

I will take your advice tough, and use some free proxies untill i'm able to reg an account without having to pay more than dust.

Is there a way to find out if the proxy i'm using has evil point without signing up first? Otherwise i'll be creating a lot of accounts that i'll just abandon as soon as i see it has evil points.

Nope. Just try them until you find one or register an account on public WiFi at Starbucks or McDonalds etc then switch to tor.

Thanks for your input :)
I'm going to lock this topic now, since i got an answer to my question, so there's not need to keep it open.
