I got a few buying bans on my main account over time from what happened to me here’s my advice: buy large lumP sums instead of small amounts (Il explain why later) trade high level players if possible and I recommend also not using a alternate account to accept the goods as imo taking gold on a pure to instantly trade to ur main looks sus.
As to why I said to buy large sums, it’s because of how they handle buying bans, here’s how it went for me:
first instance of a rwt buying ban they actually instead send you a warning message stating if your caught again punishments start
after you get that first warning your account is flagged, imo it won’t even matter who you buy from after a warning because your most likely caught no matter what - as the detection system investigates the wealth accumulation of your account over time instead of only who you buy from? Solely speculation of course.
1st ban after the warning was a 2 day ban, no wealth removal.
Second ban after the warning, was a one week ban with mentioning of wealth removal, by this point I had bought over 5b osrs but thankfully got a lot of items, after being unbanned they removed every single coin and platinum token in my bank. However keeping my items so I thankfully lost only around 150m
now if I buy again, it’s a one month ban then after that it’s a perm ban.
this is why earlier i advised buying large lump sums - that way if you get banned a few times you no longer need to buy gold.
If possible though I do recommend buying gold from actual players as this may help avoid detection.
could also try buying large sums of gold on alt accounts and letting it rest for a few months or weeks before you trade it over to main account as well.
All just suggestions and my personal experiences. I’d overall recommend buying very large amounts in as little trades as possible and no longer buying gold after the first or second ban for lowest chance of wealth removal. Also always buy a lot of items/supplies with the gold you buy as it may save you like it did me.
to further clarify: I have been told by some people they still may take items, so I’d say if you buy let’s say 1b keep in mind leaving at least some cash as maybe if you have zero gp for them to take they then will look at taking items, much better to lose 50-100m then for them to delete your Torva out of spite lol
