What actually triggers an account review (a catalogue, not a theory)
Reviews are usually caused by a small cluster of inconsistencies. Here is the catalogue sellers report most often, ordered by how much you can control.
The controllable ones
- Network type. Registering from a hosting ASN is the most common day-one trigger.
- Country mismatch. IP country vs phone country vs payment country vs warehouse.
- Device reuse. The same fingerprint on a second account — the platform sees it regardless of IP.
- Payment reuse. One card or bank account across several stores.
- Rushed profile changes. Many edits in one session.
The half-controllable ones
- Behaviour. Sudden volume on a new account, abnormal hours, automated-looking actions.
- Listing quality. Copied images or text from another store.
- Address quality. A residential address in a city where the platform has no traffic.
The ones you cannot control
- Platform policy changes — new verification steps rolled out by market.
- Neighbour risk — a shared CGNAT address used by someone else for abuse.
What to do with this list
Go through items 1–5 before registering; they are cheap to fix and cover most cases. Keep a record: date, IP, verdict, ASN. If a review happens, that record is what turns "I don't know" into a specific answer.
Our platform notes break this down per marketplace, and the checker covers the network part in one paste.
