No-promise duplicate account template for Shopify merchants
A conservative template for duplicate-account issues where the merchant wants to avoid overpromising. It keeps the response safe and practical: use store-side lookup details, avoid collecting secrets, and do not promise account merge, deletion, email correction, order transfer, restored access, refund, or exact timing.

Keep these guardrails
- No promise of merge, deletion, email correction, order transfer, access restoration, refund, or timing
- Ask only for safe lookup details

Thanks for contacting us about the duplicate account question. We can check the store-side records tied to the account emails and explain the next support step available.
Please send only the account email addresses involved and any order number you already have. Do not send passwords, one-time codes, backup codes, private links, full card details, or bank information.
Once we review the available records, we will reply with the next support step.
Adapt it safely
- Replace duplicate-account promises with one concrete support step.
- Keep merge, deletion, order transfer, and login issues separate.
- Ask for account emails and order numbers instead of credentials or card data.
- Use your own store policy before describing any account-support process.
