| A week and a half a go I had a request for a photo of a fairly costly headgear
from a buyer he had only 1 feedback from last year. I sent a message regarding
that I would be willing with no response. I then took a few photos the next day
e-mailed them, I had no response. I wasn't to worried it happens (right)
but I started wondering and did worry I was afraid someone was trying to get
into my store or something, so I deleted his message (no to sure what good that
would do) But then I received a order from the same person a few days after buying
2 items that had no bearing the the photo requested previously. Ok I thought
and invoiced the order. Still no response or payment😬 I waited 4 days feeling
very uncomfortable and cancelled the order. I haven't heard anything back!
So I am wondering what you long time, smart, BL sellers think about it

| sorry if im misunderstanding something but if I understand it went like this:
buyer asks for pictures - pictures sent - worried buying trying to hack into
your account - item sold - buyer ghosted.
I know I'm probably missing something but if not what made you think they
were trying to get into your account and not just another NPB case?

Hi Nubs, I don't thing you are missing anything, I really don't know,
gut feeling I guess. My problem is I'm not that good with what is going on
in the hacking world🙄 and I hope it was nothing

No worries then  you should be all good. The current hacking issue with bricklink
is thru fake emails sent to sellers which have links that bring them to fake
login pages where phishers steal logging details which they then use to sign
into your account. So long as you don’t follow and email links and you have OTP
on bricklink enabled your store should be all good to go (and as a safeguard
to also have a backup of your inventory saved)

Sorry that all the hacking issues have caused you worry!
It sounds like someone was looking at items in your shop, wanted to confirm the
condition of an expensive item, decided not to buy it, but checked out with some
other items. And you've cancelled on them after a fairly short time.
What makes you so nervous? All of this sounds very innocuous. The only info that
you have given them is your email and BrickLink address which are always public-facing
once any order is placed.

Prior to only allowing instant checkout in my store, I would get those (0) feedback
sales with no response ever from the buyer. Unless I'm mistaken or things
have changed that buyer now has my real email and home address. Knowing this
I would get that same uncomfortable feeling something was up.
