Maybe someone just checking how your signup & checkout work if its obviously bogus!

Just delete it

Re: Bogus Customer Account

I wouldnt delete it,

leaves gaps in the customer IDS,
not sure if thats as important as gaps in invoice numbers. but its not gonna hurt anything,
did they try to BUY something? you can also close the account without deleting it

no they didn't try to buy anything, but the first name was two letters the address they gave me was really lame, i don't want to type it out just in case, gave a boston address with a new york phone number and the address 123 roxbury :dontgetit I was just wondering if it was a way to try to spam or somehow use it in a illegal matter. how can i close the account, i only saw edit, or delete from teh admin part
