@VirMach Hello, I am a new customer of VirMach. I was lucky enough to participate in the special flash sale for my first purchase this year. I bought several good VPS.
But I found a bug during the purchase process and would like to report it to you.
"In certain circumstances, the system will be triggered to create a ghost sub-account"
Here is my simple Problem recurrence
1. When submitting a special flash sale order, the browser opens translation or opens a VPN, resulting in inconsistent IPs.
2. The system will create a sub-account based on a valid cookie (but this sub-account has no information).
3. After completing the payment, because there is no email address and other information, the automation process cannot be passed through the robot. So it is stuck.
4. After the order is paid, I have tried to modify the information of this ghost account, add emails, etc., but it will not trigger the automated process of the robot.
I have a specific case. You can check my Ticket #251138 I wrote down the process of trying.
If you have time, help me to find out how to deal with this problem. I did a simple investigation and it seems that many people have encountered this problem.

If the browser opens a VPN, is that a bug in the browser?
Sorry, English is not my native language, what I want to express is that when the VPN is not turned off or the English translation is automatically activated when the order is placed. Not a browser problem, it's a personal problem.
I just want to report that the system creates ghost sub-accounts and jams bots, without intentionally causing other discussions about how to use the browser. If VIR bans VPNs or bans translations, it should be clear and lessons learned later. But not to discuss it now. I hope to focus on the question: "How to avoid the system automatically creating ghost sub-accounts". Thank you for your interest in this issue.

In the past when I accidentally ordered while having a VPN on it has always marked my order as fraud.
It has been a while since I have done this, so ordering with a VPN no longer marks order as fraud ?

Don't know, I always order by using the same Virmach LAX IP
That poor guy's account is collateral damage during the scalper massacre I presume

My daily visit to foreign language websites will use VPN to load Google Translate by default, here when placing an order I forgot to close it is not intentional, and I have learned in this incident, close it when placing an order

Ok, since you insist on putting the ticket number in, I am going to leave it there. The reason for my action was since this was your first comment here at LES I was just trying to save you from being marked as a problematic customer by VirMach.
If you come here in the future complaining that VirMach has treated you unfairly because of this, I will remind you that it was your own fault, and retire your account. You have been warned.

Your report is very interesting, you seem to have already found the answer.
(You know, using a different (non-proxy configured) browser would be working too)
question: "How to avoid the system automatically creating ghost sub-accounts"
close it when placing an order
By the way, the browser's built-in Google Translate just rewrites the page based on the response from translate.googleapis.com, so II thought using Translate doesn't seem to be related to this issue. But I could be wrong...
In any case, turning off the VPN/Proxy is definitely the best practice!

I thought the ticket number was swallowed and you didn't get it, so I sent another screenshot. If it was you who deleted the ticket number for me that's fine. Please solve my Offline problem as soon as possible.

Your service will be activated in time. It is not unusual to have some VPS creations go bad during these flash sales. VirMach will make the rounds and fix them. Creating a ticket and/or posting it here may get you marked as a problematic customer. Why? Because when you buy these flash sales you agree to limited/no support. By putting in a ticket to try to rush the provisioning of your VPS you are breaking that agreement. By posting your ticket number here you are trying to get preferential treatment of your ticket over other tickets in the queue.
My advise is to close your ticket, and wait. You don't need to listen to me, that is your choice. I am here just to help, guide folks in the right direction as I see it, and make suggestions for people to try and avoid as many future problems as possible.

Did they also access *.virmach.com, Stripe, Coinbase, etc via proxy?
I know this is off topic, but since I am not good at English, let me ask this question.
Which is the correct meaning of "The server I purchased has Offline for three days" ? (I think it's 1 on this context)
1. I paid 3 days ago. But my VPS is not yet activated.
2. I have a VPS. And it is offline since 3 days ago.

I'll add some information to you
In our network environment, if you use any Google-related resource references in your webpage, it will always be loaded, please refer to the picture below.
Opening a VPN cannot be defined as a fraudulent order in this particular case

for me i use proxy for all of this too

Does this mean that there is a problem of automatically creating a blank sub-account when placing an order?

not investigated by virmach yet, but in my opinion I assume it is. caused by browser-in translator

PAC routing I suppose, which is popular among Chinese
In default, it will redirect non-China site through the proxy

I will make a note regarding this.
I will also put it in my will if you promise not to get any funny ideas.
