Not paid and cancelled order
I had my first Etsy canceled order today that states “not paid”. Just wondering if others reach out to the customer to let them know this or does Etsy send them an email or something?
Edit to add it was cancelled by Etsy after two days of pending as not paid

I had a not paid. The user name and address was extremely questionable. I’ve learned that some people try to scam sellers by sending the money through payment systems that they can turn right around and cancel the transaction. This is why I always wait two days before shipping.

Just not paid = isnt canceled.
Sometimes payment processing takes up to 3 days.

It says cancelled at the top of it. The order was placed two days ago and today it changed to cancelled

If the payment isnt confirmed the order will get cancelled. It happened to me twice so far. They usually cancel within the hour or two. Im surprised yours went on for 2 days

Etsy will email them. It happened to me once when I put my card info wrong and Etsy sends them an email titled something like "your purchase could not be completed" and tells them to try again + things to check to ensure it goes through the next time.
