Suspicious Shopify store

Topic summary

A customer purchased from snuggleloom.store and received order confirmation but no shipment. The store initially promised delivery this week but has since stopped responding to follow-up messages.

Key Points:

  • Cannot file a Shopify complaint until 30 days have passed since the order
  • Shopify doesn’t handle individual store fulfillment or refunds directly
  • Each Shopify store operates independently

Recommended Actions:

  • Document all communication attempts
  • After 30 days, submit a report via Shopify’s Report a merchant form
  • Contact payment provider about potential dispute or chargeback
  • If fraudulent, Shopify may shut down the store, but refunds typically come from the bank/payment service, not Shopify

Status: Unresolved, customer waiting to see if order arrives as promised.

I recently bought some thing on a Shopify store (snuggleloom.store) . I received an order confirmation but it hasn’t been shipped yet now I’m worried.

I contacted them and they said I’ll receive my order this week but after a second attempt at communication they haven’t responded l. I can’t lodge a complaint with Shopify because it hasn’t been 30 days since the order.

what can I do? Can Shopify help and will I be compensated should it turn out to be a scam?

Shopify itself isn’t responsible for fulfillment of orders, or refunds, as each store is operated individually. But if you don’t get your order within 30 days, you can submit a report to Shopify using their Report a merchant form. In the meantime, document all communication and consider reaching out to your payment provider to inquire about a dispute or chargeback if necessary. If the store ends up being a fraud, Shopify may shut it down, but your bank or payment service is usually responsible for repayment, not Shopify itself.

Okay thanks mate.
