[Done v1.3.6] No customer, but order placed

Not sure if this has been mentioned before, but here it goes:

A customer signed up on my website with false information. Here's an example:

Name: lkjkjkjkjljl
Address: ;lkj;asj;fdklaj
City: norfolk
State: CA
Zip: <actual zip, can't remember what the # was>

Anyway, I've had a few random people sign up with those kind of accounts so I always delete them assuming they're spam.

10 minutes later, an order is placed on my site. Customer is from Norfolk, CA.. but there is no customer ID associated with it and a lot of fields are blank. There's still an order there with a shipping address and the products they bought.. but thats all.

The reason I think this is a bug is because it should have asked the customer to create an account again after I had deleted it, but since they were still shopping around the cart allowed them to check out with a deleted customer

So in a nutshell...

  1. Customer signs up with fake info and starts adding stuff to their cart
  2. Admin deleted customer, but customer is still on the site
  3. Customer checks out, has no e-mail address/billing address/customer info associated with account except for shipping information (which customer may have placed during the checkout process)
  4. I receive notice of payment from PayPal, but there is no ZC order confirmation e-mail

My solution right now: don't delete fake customers til you check who's online :P
