We had a strange order that was actually paid - and which our shop immediately refunded as we had not viable contact details in the order.
I wonder whether anyone else gets orders like this and whether there is any mal-intent behind it?
This is the order invoice/delivery detail - thee is even discrepancy between invoice and delivery and the email address is clearly odd.
At first I though it was a Viart order to check a problem I had, but clearly not as we received payment!

Looks suspicious to me. Maybe someone is testing stolen credit cards to see if they are valid.

Well, Bob, if that is the case they now know that it is valid.
I have Black Listed them to resist it being tried again on us - if they use the same IP address of course!!

This happens to my site a lot, used to in the beginning though.
It because some web designer intends to check how the ecommerce site works, how many steps it takes to order a product.
Its nothing to worry about.
Its someone just going through your checkout process and seeing how you have implemented your checkout process.
It can be a developer from one of your competitors as well or just a curious web developer.

Maybe, Ibn Saeed - but if it were, why pay us?
They might not get their money back as they could not easily prove it's their money - at lest not without a lot of hassle?
