Guest account - big order - chargeback risk

Hi, since I was out for about a year I'm starting to get the feel about new features. (great updates by the way)

Now I'm having a huge order from a 'guest account' (is that new?). So there's no feedback on the customer as such.

I also got this warning : "A high value order from a new user may be a chargeback risk.
A high value order where the shipping address does not match the billing address may be a chargeback risk."

So now I'm wondering if this is reliable or not? I dont want to risk not getting my monies for over 300€ in items.

Sorry If I'm too suspicious about transactions like these.... :-)

  • You may want to contact the customer and ask they place the order again, but to be shipped to their billing address.

    However, as the addresses are quite close, it's probably not a case of using a stolen credit card from a totally different person. Or you could ask they pay via a different method. Also it passed 3D secure so I believe that means it's very likely that the person who placed the order is the proper owner of the card used.
  • Thanks for you quick reply Lawrence.

    It’s just that it was a combination of that guest account and that warning ….

    In Belgium here I also sell at a local online site and I get one scammer after another there. It made me carefull with this shizzle :-)
