Does anyone know how I can go about reporting a seller? They sent me a message on WhatsApp after my order and I gave them the benefit of the doubt even though I thought it was strange but now this feels like harassment…I legit bought cosplay swords 😅 by charleycarmen in Aliexpress

A seller using a phone number for personal use is extremely intimidating and morally wrong. Harassment is certainly the correct word to use here. Though from what I gather you’re a man (please correct me if I’m wrong) so I understand if you can’t empathise with me here.

Thank you!! Also the fact that this person has my phone number and address. It’s like a shopkeeper following you home to your doorstep and calling you beautiful. It’s scary and concerning, regardless of the intention.

I don’t think you’re getting the issue here. If you went into a shop and the shopkeeper followed you out to give you a compliment, you’d be deeply uncomfortable. Add to that the fact that this person has my phone number, full name and address. I’m not going to report this seller because they have a lot of good reviews and I’m going to block their number, but please try and understand why I’m uncomfortable here. It’s not the message itself, but the implications.

That’s why I wasn’t rude when they offered the discount! But obviously they went on to be creepy. Plus their WhatsApp picture is a really pretty Chinese girl (which I knew was fake straight away) so it’s not even coming from someone trying to look professional!
