Yep, already being done. Buying plat on non-SE is most definitely a gamble.

We generally start out by targetting farmers. We clean up and ban handoff accounts and sellers in the process*, and then generally take action as well on the people who bought from them.

[*] Note to farmers: Yes, we have tools that trace through all 27 of the handoffs you're doing, so you're just annoying yourselves for no real reason. But if you want to keep paying for all those accounts until they get banned, hey, thanks.
