Stop complaining. You wanted this.

Then they just sell the character, with the house, the person buys the character, a rename and a fantasia, and squenix makes money from it.

The only real deterrent I can see against bots spamming it is the requirement to put the gil up front (probably not an issue for a botter) and the requirement to be a 2nd lieutenant in your FC to be able to purchase it. Not sure if bots do the FC things and I don't think boosting caps your FC rank either, so some little effort has to be put into that at least.

I highly doubt people with the capital of even 100 subs will ever choose ff14 to profit off and credit cards have much better security that before. One time passwords for transactions and purchase patterns analysis is sufficient although it does not prevent users from card info input to malicious parties. RMT unfortunately will exist because people are adept at exploiting loopholes and I believe SE did do their best so far to protect its players, better with player cooperation to not be involved tho.
