A curiosity on RMT spam

[Snugglebutt]

I think the friend request ones are for the purpose of hacking your account, like maybe logs on the client account info in some way because only once did I accept friend request from one once when first started playing because did not realise that's what RMT sellers do and thought was just normal person who sent it. I then got locked out of my account by Squeenix and had to change my password as Squeenix thought my account might have been compromised according to them.

When RMT sellers target me they never seen to stop too in the sense I had one few days ago message me spamming his RMT selling information and I ignored it but kept sending me friend requests and messages for over 30 minutes before I realised ignoring alone doesn't work so I blacklisted and reported.

One thing I will say though is Squeenix does seem to ban RMT spammers but never seems to ban RMT funding bot accounts or people who bot for self gain, I was shocked how Yoshi said in an interview he actually doesn't mind botters and instead of telling people not to do it he just asked them not to get caught. Goes to show the mentality of the developers when they are trying to help botters cheat in this game by giving them advice and never banning them.
