I just had two friends (both brothers) that helped each other complete their “Golden Title” and were banned shortly after for reports of “selling gold”. They transacted the 200G between each other and were banned immediately for selling gold. However, when they log in now, rather than saying they were terminated for “selling gold” (IE – trading it between brothers), now it just says that it may have been accessed by an unauthorized individual. Really? Two of the same people involved in the same trade? Sounds like a really poor filter on the current mailing system. Lesson learned: Don’t send money to your friends in game, or ANET will just ban you for helping someone out. Just for reference, here are their support tickets:

Anet bans people for mailing gold to players. Why? Because gold sellers do that too. Just don’t do it.
This is not true. Players mail gold to other players all the time without negative consequence.
The details in this case must have been extraordinary, and the team will look into the matter and resolve it in the best way possible,
Sorry Gaile, I simply don’t buy this poor excuse.
PS – It would likely be best to operate from a standpoint of not treating your customers as guilty until proven innocent. Its BAD publicity all around the internet community.
