Buyers w/same address, different user id

Over the past few days I’ve made multiple sales and have noticed that a lot of them all have the same shipping address. But each and everyone of them has a different name and user ID on the purchase, but the shipping address is the same on every purchase. It’s been close to 20 purchases. Is this some type of scam? I don’t want to have to cancel every single order if it hurts my sellers feedback.

I was thinking along that same line, forwarding address. 

@kasekocta_0

Were any of these sales charged an international transaction fee?

1. sounds like it could be a freight forwarder address

2. have you Googled Map the address?

3. Have you reviewed each buyers' profile? Date of membership? feedback received? feedback they left for others.

 

If you do your research, you will probably get your answer. 

 

The other thing that seems odd is multiple I.D.s with same address. You would think one buyer purchasing all and then asking for combined shipping. 

 

If you decide to ship. I would ship with signature required at delivery for each buyer I.D.
