Illegal Transfers do not include currencies bought directly from the game store (for example, Plasma, Potion Credits and RED) - these can be traded freely. You may purchase packs from the game store for any other account, even those sharing your network. This rule extends to third-party transfers where two users use a third person to transfer funds to try and get around the system, this will result in all three users being jailed.
