Security code status update template for Shopify merchants
A neutral follow-up when the shopper asks for an update on a security-code issue. It keeps the response safe and practical: ask for store-side lookup details and visible error text, never ask for codes, and do not promise verification success, account unlock, restored access, resend, refund, or exact timing.
Use this when
A neutral follow-up when the shopper asks for an update on a security-code issue.
Keep these guardrails
- Avoid timing promises
- Restate that codes should not be emailed
- Give one process-based next step
Do not collect secrets
Never ask for security codes, one-time codes, two-factor codes, backup codes, passwords, private account links, full card numbers, bank details, government ID images, private payment details, or remote-access invitations in ordinary support email.

Thanks for following up. We are checking the store-side record connected to your account email and the verification issue you reported.
We do not need your security code, one-time code, backup code, password, private link, card details, or bank information for this step.
We will reply with the next support option available from the information we can safely review.
Adapt it safely
- Never ask customers to paste verification, security, or backup codes.
- Replace verification promises with one process-based support step.
- Ask for visible error text instead of screenshots containing secrets.
- Use your own store policy before describing any account-support process.
