Cause 2: Someone used your phone number to register shopee
This is a very rare case, although there are a few vendors who have had similar cases.
This is in case someone familiar has used your phone number to temporarily register on shopee, this action needs to get OTP (message code) from your phone to activate the account.
Please remember carefully to see if anyone borrowed your phone number to register for a shopee account and then contact them to resolve.
However, this happens very rarely 😀
