Fake accounts

[marnowli_0]

I am a new user to ebay and would like to know if anyone can tell me about fake accounts. I sold an item and under the bidder info it said it was a fake account what actions should I take? 

Thanks

Wait 4 days, then eBay cancels the order and gives the buyer an unpaid item strike. Then you can block the buyer from your account, so he doesn’t buy from you again. Good luck 👍🏻

It doesn’t say ‘fake account’. It might say ‘no longer registered’, though. That just means, sometime between when they bid or bought that item, eBay suspended them. 
They were registered when they were participating in that listing, but now they are not registered. 

You should have received an email concerning this transaction. 
You can’t issue a nonpayment strike to a user who isn’t registered.

Can you please give us a screen shot where the bidder is identified as a "fake account"? 

I've been here 20+ years and have never seen anything like that.

Yeah, he probably means “no longer registered”. I have never seen anything like “fake account” before.

Not sure how to do a screen shot  but here is what I have. An it does say "no longer registered"  He had one feedback and they are the ones that said it was a fake account.
