| Hello Bricklinkers,
I have a few orders "behind me", including one from that store. A few
days ago I did make a cart above the bricklink minimum order amount (26 euro)
for this store but it did show me that it is not enough anyway and it shall be
42 euro. I did check the store rules and it says that only for countries from
zone 4 and above this apply. Poland, according to German DHL is in Zone 3. So
I did message the seller on Sunday. Till now I did not receive any reply so I
did start to top up the cart to 42 to euro only to discover that suddenly the
store does not ship to Poland. Did anyone encounter this kind of behaviour before?
Thank you for any reply.

IIRC it's also the Shop with "variable shipping rates".
Every part you add increases the shipping price...
I think I reported them for fees avoidance, at least.
Do as you think, but in any case, I'd recommend you to run away from this
specific shop.

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.

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.

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)

| | Are they why if you search up “.” On YouTube then you get creepy results?

Nah, that was around years before AI - it's closer to those Elsa/Spider-Man
videos that were "made for kids" & had a ton of inappropriate content.
The "." videos were some sort of algorithm bypass that allowed people
to upload disturbing content & not get caught by YouTube's filtering system
The "." search was "fixed" in a sense that YouTube no longer
suggests weird search terms or videos with foreign symbols in the title when
you search "." but it still results in creepy videos showing up (which
are titled "Full Stop Punctuation" although I think those videos are
just copycats trying to get views off of people who learned about the whole situation
after it was "resolved" - none of the videos being suggested contain
disturbing content, it's just odd/creepy videos with unrelated, custom thumbnails
to draw people in; it's basically a creepypasta sort of thing now
Before YouTube caught on it was a mix of odd/creepy copycat vids and actual NSFL
content, no idea how people figured it out but I'm glad it's somewhat
fixed now

Thanks for your forumpost but my advice would be: always read the forum, you
would have known it much earlier and the forum can help all of us in these matters.

I don't think so.
PM me a copy of your Terms page if you have it?
Please be patient.
Help Desk are overloaded, and I guess it's not their main priority to restore
Shops which have been flagged, sorry to say.
I wouldn't start a new thread every couple of days or even week.

Then why is https://store.bricklink.com/TheToyHoarders#/terms still open despite
being closed and directing people to ebay and marketplace?
And, yes, I have reported the store and nothing is done about it.

Also if it’s under new ownership shouldn’t it be a new user?

| Hello All:
My store has been suspended for "Preventive Action" reason.
I dont fully understand why? I dont aware of any violations of terms (as I know
off).
Tried to contact Admin team by sending few messages via the Help Desk page.
But I dont get any response yet.
Anybody has any idea of response timeline from Admin?
Any idea how to get back the store online again?
The challenge is, dont know what the problem is to take any corrective action.
Thanks
