That's actually to toughest way to "shill" on Ebay from what I've read. Ebay will shut you down quick if you are shilling from a related account, probably because it's the easiest to prove. They've been known to shut down or suspend unrelated accounts just because they've originated from the same address, such as an Apartment complex or multi-family house.
Doesn't stop somebody from setting up a Shilling account from a Library or some other remote location using false info, but it's something.
Lots of people have also been using 1 account to buy with and another to sell with for years.
