Platform Protection & Alerts

1. In this section, the system displays risk alerts identified by the platform’s security policies.
2. For confirmed fraud (e.g., malicious refunds or fake reviews), the system automatically blocks these actions and shows sellers the results.
3. For high-risk orders/refunds, the system flags them for seller review. Sellers can then cancel these orders without penalty to protect their business.

Security Alert Orders

These are orders the platform has determined to have a high cancellation risk. For these orders, the system will:
