Here is the scenario. Purchases of 2 items each are made back to back 4 times (8 items total), using 3-4 different user IDs--each with a different obviously fake name. All 4 orders have exactly the same name or code at a freight forwarding address in Portland, Oregon. This happens with two different FF addresses. I corresponded with one of the unique ID/name buyers. He said that the others were his friends, and it was OK to send all 8 of the products in one package. I shipped them without incident, but subsequently, all the accounts were "unregistered."
I phoned ebay, and was told that ebay had closed the accounts because they were "suspicious"-- I presume meaning stolen credit cards. All purchases were paid for immediately, and charges were never reversed. ebay told me not to worry--that I was covered as long as the items had been shipped and delivered to the FF.
A week later, the same person does the same thing, using yet more new accounts and names, using the identical addresses as the ones used before (same name or code, same FF street address), and writes to me, asking me how soon I can ship. Now I am cancelling orders sent to certain names or codes at these two addresses. None of the buyers has written back to ask why. They just change accounts and names, and order again. Sometimes the accounts get "unregistered," and sometimes they do not. I have no idea what is going on. I am losing much of my business by canceling these orders, since most of my sales are to buyers in China and Korea. Should I continue to cancel the orders or resume shipping?
