1. Abusing promotional or subsidy programs
2. Fake orders & review manipulation
3. Running multiple accounts simultaneously
4. Creating a new identical account after being banned

"Your account has been locked/restricted" is the dreaded message for every seller on e-commerce platforms. It could mark the end of all the efforts you've invested. So, what causes it and how can you avoid your account being "wiped out"? Let Omnilogin walk you through in the article below.

1. Abusing promotional or subsidy programs

Many e-commerce platforms, especially in markets like Vietnam (Shopee, Lazada…), offer buyer incentives to boost consumption. If you use multiple accounts with the same IP address or device to exploit a single promo or discount code, there’s a high chance all those accounts will be locked.

2. Fake orders & review manipulation

This is one of the most common causes of account bans.

Using multiple accounts to place fake orders or leave reviews while sharing the same device or IP.
One account making many repeat purchases or writing excessive reviews in a short time.
Using third-party services to buy likes, fake reviews, or boost order numbers.

Sales and product reviews are crucial for any e-commerce shop, but taking shortcuts is risky. Platforms now employ fingerprinting (browser fingerprint data) for stricter detection. Each fingerprint contains your hardware and software info, making tactics like changing browsers or using VPNs increasingly ineffective.

3. Running multiple accounts simultaneously

This is a common tactic among mid-sized sellers to increase visibility and compete with big brands. However, it's against the platform rules. Managing multiple accounts selling similar or identical products greatly increases your chances of being flagged.

4. Creating a new identical account after being banned

After being banned, many sellers immediately create a new account. Unfortunately, this often leads to the new one being banned too—due to matching registration info, device, or IP address, causing the systems to link both accounts and block them.

OMNILOGIN – THE ULTIMATE SHIELD FOR YOUR E-COMMERCE STORES

Over 60% of account bans come from improper multi-account operations. That's why Omnilogin is your best bet to secure your e-commerce business.

Omnilogin creates isolated virtual browser profiles, each with unique fingerprint and device configurations. With every account you log in to, Omnilogin generates a new identity by masking your original computer's info. These profiles appear as separate personal logins on platforms like Amazon, eBay, Shopee, Lazada, Tiki… and even on Google or any other site. Managing a large system of clones becomes extremely easy with its user-friendly interface.
