Question
Someone recently approached me about transfering some of his stuff to new account because he didn't have any way to go on both accounts at the same time. He offered me 50k to do it and I figured I'd be nice and say yes. So, we transfered everything no problem. Today, the guy who asked me to transfered, comes on, asking who I was. I had added him so he could trust me. I told him what we did and he said that someone hacked his account and I told him the screen name of the person I had trasnfered with. He went on to tell me it was his friend in real life. So, his friend came online today and told me that someone jacked his account too and that i was to blame...Is there anyway I am going to get my account banned or canceled?

Nope you wouldn't get banned as you didn't do anything wrong. Keep in mind they can also be trying to scam you and trick you into giving them items or money so they don't "turn you in" because they think it is your fault... even though you are not responsible.
In most cases they were 99.9% not hacked. They either used a bot/program that had a key program embeded in it. Or they gave their username/password to a friend or someone they thought they could trust and in most instances found out they couldn't. This is why you never give that information out or use a password/username that is easily guessed.
