Yes - this is almost certainly due to the capacitor - you might try leaving the camera with a fully charged battery and see if that fixes the capacitor problem - otherwise you may have a problem.
As far as I know you can't get the shutter count from an X-T3 once it has been reset.
Even if it hadn't been reset by the capacitor the shutter count you get from the EXIF won't be reliable with a well used camera - the highest value that it can store is 64K and then it rolls over.
Thanks, then I will try to charge the little ting up. Should i Leave the camera on or is it enough just having a charged up battery connected?
Oh that sucks a bit. Maybe they have a way of seeing the counter in a service place 🤔

Hello!
I’m a bit worried I did a bad deal. I bought a used Fujifilm XT-3 quite cheap yesterday. I am the 3rd owner.
The first owner was a professional photographer that bought the camera in 2019.
Neither me or the seller can find the shutter count by checking the EXIF. He got a shutter count of 391, I got a count of 3.Seller told me he had the camera on service once to fix the shutter button, could the service guys have reset the counter?
I also noticed when I got home I had to put in the date and time again even though I tested the camera like two hours before at the sellers place.
I read this might be due to a small capacitor that stores some memory. Can this be the reason behind the reset shutter count?Appreciate any advice on how I can find the total shutter count, if I should return the camera or just live with the unknown and enjoy the camera.
Used Fujifilm XT-3, zero shutter count
in Fuji X-T3 / Fuji X-T30

It seems to have been the capacitor as it havent reset it self after I kept a charged battery inside.
This was the response I got from the official Fuji people:
