Google ads Suspicious Payments (9)

Google ads Suspicious Payments

Here's what I just tested and it got suspended right away for suspicious payments. I have been using proxies and software to mask my computer fingerprint, since I've been having issues with suspicious payments I've been trying to make it as basic as possible to replicate what a new user would do for google ads.

- I bought a new computer from Walmart
- I bought a new hot spot to use for the computer
- I have a t mobile phone, I switch the number on so I have a new number to verify the Google account.
- I used a Bank of America credit card that I use for my business and updated the address on it to match the address of the local business site I picked that I verified through spyfu.com that it’s not already on google
- I double checked that the credit card would pass verification with the new address by charging it on my credit card processor and it said the ZIP Code had an exact match

Once I submitted the account and I added my credit card the account was suspended for suspicious payments within about a minute.

Could anyone provide any feedback as to what you think might be the issue here.

I don't see how it could be the computer or the hotspot or the phone number since they all are new. The website is not used in Google. It seems there's something with my credit card and suspicious payments but I can't figure out what it is right now.

thanks

Are you using the same business name or tax number as before? Or maybe it's because you used the same name and date of birth?

Hey Affiliated4, I am using a different name and date of birth and a tax id number is not required.

so strange - i tried something similar. using new credit card, laptop and internet and i was still caught out. But I guessed it was due to same name or something.

Hope you work it out

if google bans you, it forever remembers you.

Some of the smartest people(of the world) work in google, and you can never beat them.

I wasted 2 years of my life trying to outsmart google and get free credits on google ads, i was caught everytime.

Did you ever use your new credit card OR hot spot OR phone OR email to log into ANY other google-owned accounts (not just google ads or gmail but ANY google-owned accounts or services such as google drive), OR to purchase any google-owned products?

Also: Lots of websites allow logging in via gmail - did you happen to associate any of your new CC/hotspot/phone/email with an old gmail when logging into other websites?

I am thinking just buying gmail accounts and setting up adwords or buying adwords accounts.

It makes no sense this would get suspended with everything being new.

I am sure others are having this same issue too and there always is a solution!!! It's just a matter of trying everything.

Try to setup ur account with google support manager, she/he call u and help in all your problems/questions.
How about payment method: try to use paypal, bank account (not card).
