I feel I am a victim of fraud here. I sold my first item on this Vinted app the same day I opened my account. Then next thing is I'm banned for selling a fake item. And I think it was the first buyer that low balled me that flagged me. I read reviews that people can flag you for any reason and you get banned easily. I had no issues and good reviews on another platform I normally sell on. I thought this platform would be the same experience. I sent my item by USPS tracking. And now I'm banned. I appealed. But they said it's permeant. I also complained. I made complaints to the bbb and consumer affairs. I am able to log in to see my last messages to the buyer and my item tracking number and the money page where I should be able to withdrawal to my bank account. I'm not certain if they'll even allow me to be paid and they just let the buyer keep my item. I feel like this platform was a terrible experience and waste of time. EBay would have been better than them.

Then you'll just have to wait and see, won't you.

Regardless, chalk it up to a life lesson and don't use Vinted anymore.

What you have experienced is a very common risk when selling online.

I don't know what you expect to learn here as you have not asked any question in your post.
