Well....I think the concept is not that you are sharing points with a stranger but doing something for a friend. As such the trust shouldn't be an issue. I doubt that ability was set up for people to sell their points.

I think you have something there. The ability was set up so you could share your points with a friend or relative. Not so you could sell your points. Therefore, sharing your password should NOT be an issue.

And unfortunately I think HGVC will stop allowing us to do this probably because of this as well.

Or charge a fee for it. If they can make money off of doing it, why do they care where thr points go?

I can see this going either way. Why buy more points direct or resale for that matter if you can get a transfer. If HGVC sees a "market" for transfers then they will charge a fee.
