Re: Suspicious buyers

Your items are not typical scam targets so it's probably innocent -  unless you've annoyed someone recently and didn't put them on your blocked bidder list.    If you're worried you can cancel:

and block:

Re: Suspicious buyers

The names may be different are the addresses the same?

It could be a guest buyer who gets isssued a username by eBay with a lot of numbers in

Re: Suspicious buyers

I think the explanation given about a guest buyer is the answer, as the IDs are not names chosen by buyer, however I doubt they will pay the postage, as I doubt that it can be combined as you are using Global Shipping.
