Store suspended for no reason

[MurasakiUS]

Not sure why my store has been suspended as of this morning.

It's less than 24 hours old.  All products are made by me.

Are new sellers just getting screwed like this regularly now?

@MurasakiUS  your shop is NOT suspended. What makes you think it is?

[UniqueGiftOrnaments]

Your shop is not suspended. You may have received a spam message. But finish your shop. Add a banner, your actual location so you get found in local search, and an "about" page. You are also required to add your production partner (who printed your items)

Yes. This is probably scammers. 

Be very careful. Don't click on any links.

How to Handle Scams and Suspicious Messages

You are not suspended, your shop is visible.

Your shop is not suspended

[hopeandjoystudios]

Your store is open. It is probably a scammer telling you that as they target new shops. If it is not a message in your Etsy messages file it is NOT Etsy! Don't verify anything with them and if you did immediately contact your card or bank so they don't drain your account.

I can see it.

Anyone?:  Is there some sort of "hole" in Etsy's coding that makes it easy for scammers to indentify, and target new shops/sellers?

[BagmakerSupply]

@PristinityJewelry: There are plenty of web scrappers available out there that can locate new shops and new listings.

Hey everyone,

So...I did have the red banner in my shop manager telling me I was suspended.  This was on all 3 of my stores that I run, as of this morning.

I appealed each one individually. Stating I had no idea why they've been suspended.

Within 30 minutes the suspension was reversed.

Very odd.

Be aware...maybe take a few minutes and do this...

"...If you choose to run multiple shops on Etsy, you must list all the shops you run in the Public Profile section of each account. Each account must also comply with Etsy’s Seller Policy...."

@MurasakiUS  Make sure all your shops and user names are listed in each public profile including any buyer account you may have.

Also your location is CA but your shipping is FLA.  Then you need to include your prodcution partner as they are the ones that can drop ship your items. 

I would also suggest finishing your shop.
