From a friends experience, these discount websites are not necessarily legit businesses. They tanke advantage of the current exchange rate for what ever country they are in. I don't know what any exchange rates are but as an example, European players may have the 5000 coins for 50 Euro. Say 50 Euro is only $40. So you send someone in Europe $40 and your password. They log in to your account and by the coins using Euros. Viola, you got 5000 coins for $40. Then remember to change your password so it doesn't get hacked later.

I am torn as to whether this cheating or not. It's a bit unscrupulous and dangerous but is it cheating? But it is in the Mobage TOS, so a banning is justified by those terms. But a warning might have been nice.

And I have purchased iTunes gift cards on sale at Target fo 10% off before. Is that cheating?
