That's a good point. I'd add that it's not uncommon for the account number
to be incorrect. People sometimes assume that it doesn't matter which
account they use to fulfil their side of the trade, not realising that
technically they're breaking the trade agreement, which is grounds for
losing their security deposit. I'd say that this happens because people
don't realise that these seemingly little things are part of the security
mechanism protecting the other party (and the other party might not realise
it either). This is tangential to the discussion at hand, but I wanted to
mention it because people following this are those likely to take this
seriously too.
