I bought a quantity of isk from a fairly large isk seller about a month ago. I reported the seller straight to CCP. I had a reply from the security team about it and now we're almost a month later and that isk seller is not only still selling isk, but he hasn't even been banned because his character that delivered the isk is still logging in and making more deliveries.

He has sold another 100+ bill of isk at least since CCP got the report. All seems very odd.

They didn't even take the isk I purchased away from me.

Have you handed over the illegal ISK to CCP?

No, I still have it. I have informed CCP of it and of the character who delivered it to me. I still see that character logging in and making more deliveries.

Perhaps you shouldn't wait to biomass yourself, because you have made a bannable offence.

because there's little point in CCP banning the "bag man" and alerting the person behind it by eliminating one of his disposable mules. They want to investigate the whole supply chain, and the forensics of that take some time.

Anyway, good job on breaking the EULA and then tipping off your supplier that CCP are investigating him. No, really: top marks.

Firstly IB4L because discussion of RMT and bans is forbidden on the forums.

Secondly CCP may be allowing the seller to continue his nefarious deeds in order to gather intelligence on others involved in the foul practice of RMT, in much the same way as known criminals are allowed to operate by the police in order to gather intelligence and catch their associates.

As for you still having the ISK, now that you've brought it up on the forums I expect that to change fairly soon.

In the beginning there was nothing, which exploded.

It's not a "bag man". The character is nearly 10 years old and has been involved with many corps and a major alliance. It's a main character.

Which means precisely sweet F.A., many people have alts that are both old and have been in many corps over time, they're still alts.

Furthermore characters are bought and sold all the time which can change the status of a character between main and alt at any time; for example my first, 6+ year old, character has been sold on at least 3 times that I know of and is currently languishing in an alt corp of Goons, he was my main, now he's somebody else's alt.
