So lets dissect your argument and compare it information that we know exists about RMTs.
First part, they do indeed use multiple accounts. This is seen simply by looking at the reports from SE and the amount RMT's continue to charge per million of gil daily. We see many accounts being removed but we also see that gil prices are not changing. They spam us pretty much every 30 minutes of their prices.
However, the second part is false. They do not use multiple characters on one account because you hold too much gil and resources in one area. If this argument was true than your first part of your argument would be FALSE. For every RMT we ban, if this was the case, we would see the price per million of gil per day GO UP but we do NOT see this. For every one account we ban, we technically should get 8 accounts at once which is a ton of gil.
Also, accounts that hold gil and vendor are LEGIT paid for accounts. They do not use stolen accounts to ever vendor or store goods. Most accounts are linked to emails and will notify you of account/password changes which will result in you reporting this. Not to mention, its very common that your ingame friends report it as well as they notice that your account has been compromised. Stolen accounts are the worst place to store and sell RMT goods in MMOs.
I'm sure in, RMT 101, it would be something like "never link all your resources to one location." We investigate everyone who signs the charter and everyone using the FC chest. Not only do we get all the characters linked to one account, we get all accounts linked to the FC chest and FC.
If what you are saying really was true, that RMTs are unaffected by allowing to mail freely between one account, we would already have that feature early on. Its not even a very hard feature to produce I would say. Most of its already complete, you just have to allow players mail themselves at this point as the mail system for the most part is already done. You can already mail everyone else but your own alts.
What are they using RMT's as a scapegoat for, too hard or too much to program? I highly doubt it.
