are you referring to connected accounts, or account on your system and you want a way to evaluate your users?
vale flame
account on my system
in the verification results that I can access, is there a user identifier or something similar that I can store in my database and then use to see if someone tries to create a different account?

In the responses, you can inspect the verified_outputs based on the checks you perform:
https://stripe.com/docs/api/identity/verification_sessions/object#identity_verification_session_object-verified_outputs
For example, if you did an ID check you could get the ID number (using expansion to include it, as noted there). Otherwise you'd need to match heuristically based on name, DOB etc
What are you trying to do, exactly?
Other approaches for this, for example preventing users from signing up for multiple free trials, can be done more simply by examining the fingerprint on a credit card you ask for at sign up:

we have an auction site and people are just not paying and then we lock their account, but then they create a new one.

Gotcha, it does sound like you might want additional identity verification then
vale flame
is there such a thing as a user fingerprint?
unkempt copper
There is not, no

That's something you might create from some of the verified outputs of an identity check, after determining your definition of same vs different person
