FFXIV Player account bans

A number of players have turned to Reddit to try and find out why their user accounts have been banned by SE for “Cheating and Botting” but have not done anything. (Example 1, Example 2, Example 3) SE also just posted a notice about activation issues with software purchased through unauthorized 3rd party sellers, specifically purchasing the Steam version through any retailer other than Steam/Valve. Is it possible that these two issues are related somehow, and they linked a number of RMT accounts with purchases of software from other sources? Hopefully very few innocent players were caught up in this dragnet and this issue can be resolved without much problem.
