We removed listings from your shop that don't follow our policies

Good Morning, Has anyone else received the yellow banner on top stating "We removed listings from your shop that don't follow our policies" and NOT have anything deactivated by Etsy.  I received the banner as well as the email stating the same and I should check my inactive folder for the listing in question.  There is NO listing deactivated by Etsy.  Has this happened to anyone else?  If so, what was the resolution?

Thank you!

Re: We removed listings from your shop that don't follow our policies

@AJCraftCreationsSVG  - From time to time other shops have reported Etsy deactivating a listing though nothing missing from their shop. After some digging some report that they have had some of their sold-out listings flagged by Etsy, at times due to a DMCA being filed by a person/company that holds the IP, CR & TM, rights or simply removed by Etsy for various reasons. Why bots review sold listings is puzzling but then I don't pretend to understand bots & how they're programmed, lol.

Don't forget to check your email's spam & promo folders. It's amazing where some Etsy (especially Etsy legal) emails end up.

If that was the problem, there's this article from Etsy:

YES! just happened to me today. I do have deactivated listings but I'm quite sure I deactivated them myself. I don't have any that say "deactivated by Etsy".  I too received the banner and the email.

I also had this happen this morning BUT I have over 400 listings made inactive. I have no idea why. Where do we find out what is wrong with the listing?

We can only guess here.  You will need to contact Etsy.
