Well then it could mean something like : Do you (live there)?

Maybe as follow up question, in a chat:

A:Oh do you live in Japan? (Anata wa nihon ni sundeimasuka?)
B:Nope (Iie)
B:Do you (live there)? (Anata wa sundeimasuka?)
A: ...

It's not really a common way to use it as follow up question in this form, but it is a possibility, especially if the person who wrote it isn't a native speaker.

Yeah, I assumed it was a question by a non-native speaker
