Everyone should be prepared to have their accounts banned. Anyone is susceptible to doing any number of trades with an RMTer that could end up looking suspicious for a multitude of reasons.

I get the feeling people think that getting caught up in a banwave is a one-way ticket - they've found you guilty and there's no convincing them otherwise. This isn't how it works. Even if you don't have logging enabled and have a very hazy recollection of the transaction in question, you're still gonna get out of jail if you just stay calm and tell them the truth. They have server logs, they have ways to find out what happened and ways to verify your story.

That said, everyone should have logging enabled so that when you do get thrown in jail, you'll have the necessary resources to make it as short and painless of an experience as possible. Don't panic, don't throw a fit - if you're innocent there's no reason to get upset, just tell them what you know of the transaction in question and things will work out.

It might take a few days. That might seem like an eternity to some of you nerds, but you'll get through it. I promise.
