Got banned yesterday, on the account status page it says the ban is less than a day remaining. However, when I select view evidence, it shows it expires a year after the day I was banned. So, which is it?
If you are uncomfortable with someone's trade conditions, don't do it. Let them know, and if they still insist on doing it that way, don't do it. No one is making you trade lol
an "ip hider" as you call it will not protect you over the phone. Even if you did make the call through skype or something else it is very easy for them to track your information.
