I never sold gold on it or bought gold so im not sure if this is a ban for botting (obviously) but idk why it doesnt say that. Both accounts had gametime on them from cards not raf, They sent everything to a lvl 1 same account which put it in gbank and i sold on main. I appealed and got this responce because I told them idk why im getting banned for buying/selling gold when ive never done that blah blah blah Thank you for your follow-up contact.

I was banned a while ago for the exact same reason on my first wow account. Funny thing is when they banned this one I had never actually used a Bot before and I was away from home and unable to play wow for 2 weeks and the time they said I was botting/selling gold was the period i was actually at work so it was impossible for me too do anything on wow. I'm a little concerned with the resources and the mental integrity of people Blizzard is using to investigate suspicious behaviour.
