messaging scams?

[Areasontocreate]

I just started an etsy shop.  I got a weird message on the messages center on my seller's page saying:

New order!

Order #4326022692

Status: Waiting for acceptance

Here: [This content has been removed by Moderation. Please do not share unsafe links in the Forums.]

It showed one of my listings.  But this is already the second message I received like this.  I'm not sure if it is a scam or not.  I used to use etsy a long time ago and don't remember there being a "waiting for acceptance" notification when an order was made.  Is this something new or should I just delete/ignore this message?

Scam there're no such thing about waiting for acceptance.
If you get an order it will show on your order page and the payment will show in your payment account.

Genuine messages from Etsy will appear in the 'From Etsy' folder in your Etsy message page (as well as the main inbox). All other messages are from buyers (or could be scammers if they 'appear' to be from Etsy, but are not in the aforementioned folder). 

Scams and spam should be reported (click the SPAM/Report button)

Scammers tend to target new shops.

If you receive an actual order, you will see it in your "Orders and Shipping" section and you will receive an email from Etsy notifying you that you have a sale, and there will be a notification in your dashboard as well.
