lol.. difficulty in reading comprehension? let me try a third time When you aquire something circumventing safeguards the system has in place to prevent you from aquiring it in that manner at the detrimental to others and then use your ill gotten gains to enrich yourself...or to commit illegal activities.... otherwise it is a civil breach of contract. which will likely just get your account cancelled. although that may not be long as ever since that kid killed herself when being bullied..by someone who entered fake info, the federal govt is looking closely at making violating the tos as a computer crime as illegal access to a private computer system and theft of service as you had no authorization to use the services because you broke the tos. so don't be suprised if that changes.. and simply lieing on your xbox live account becomes a felony.

scalping is only illegal because the state gets no tax revenue on the additional income, where they do from the registered corporation that sells the seats. Usually corporate ticket scalpers are not considered scalpers because they are registered with the state and are considered brokers..as they are taxed.

most websites do not allow prepaid credit cards as they generally have no address or zipcode tied to them and will not pass card authorization methods. at least as far as I know. also, the one time use numbers are still tied to an original account or they would not know who to bill for the purchase... or be able to process returns to the original account.. the trail is still there .. its just capped at a dollar amount.

uh no.. but your account might get cancelled.. But if you use a bot net to sign up for 15000 accounts using different fake names to get the most desirable gmail addresses or googles new service of the month.. which gmail is offering only on a first come first serve basis with a 6 account limit per person... then sell those accounts to people for $500 when you only got the account by lying and violating the terms in the first place you should. As your selling something you obtained under false pretenses.. your talking apples to oranges here and using a strawman argument. one is lying and violation of tos the other is FRAUD to obtain further financial gain at the expense of others. and even in your case if gmail has notified you to cease and desist and you still keep signing up fraudulent accounts under assumed names..or are using the accounts to commit 419 fraud or some other illegal activity from thier servers.... sure you should go to jail..or get fined.. its criminal trespass. if you want to be anonymous.. sign up for an account with a company that allows you to be anonymous. google doesn't OWE you anything and you have no right to take it under your own terms because thats how YOU want it. your solution.. is to not use the companies service and go somewhere else.. not steal it under terms you may like better.
