A high ranked account is only bought for the following reasons:
- perform a scam
One type scam not really discussed in the forum is the number of sold accounts that end up receiving loans and then defaulting and allowing the account to receive negative trust.

But as long as we don't have a working strategy to "legalize" account sales, it's best in my opinion to give out negative trust if there's enough evidence about sold / hacked accounts.
I wonder what comments others will make about your strategy because it effectively means a blanket ban for buying/selling accounts and dismisses by default any notion of mitigation (and any sympathy along with it). Will account sales ever be accepted, I doubt it but there could be exceptional circumstances we have not contemplated yet.
