Duplicate customer account template for Shopify merchants
A careful reply when a shopper says they accidentally created duplicate customer accounts. It keeps the response safe and practical: use store-side lookup details, avoid collecting secrets, and do not promise account merge, order transfer, email correction, account deletion, access restoration, refund, or exact timing.
Use this when
A careful reply when a shopper says they accidentally created duplicate customer accounts.
Keep these guardrails
- Do not promise duplicate removal
- Ask for safe identifiers
- Separate account cleanup from order support
Do not collect secrets
Do not ask for passwords, one-time codes, backup codes, government ID images, private account links, full card numbers, bank details, private payment details, mailbox access, or remote-access invitations in ordinary support email.
Template copy
We can check the store-side records connected to the duplicate account emails and see what support option is available.
Please send the account email addresses involved and any order number you already have. Do not send passwords, one-time codes, backup codes, private account links, or payment details.
We will reply with the next support step after reviewing the available records.
Adapt it safely
- Replace merge promises with one concrete support step.
- Keep account merge, order lookup, and email correction as separate issues.
- Ask for account emails and order numbers instead of credentials or codes.
- Use your own store policy before describing any account-support process.
