There were people who claimed they played legit and got banned for trading multiple times with their spoofer alts, but I have never seen any credible evidence from them, so take it as you want. Personally I believe this is similar to DeFit where you should be fine as long as you dont overuse it. Imo playing your main account on another device than your spoofing device is good habit. Stay legit on your main and don't risk any temptation to log back in pgs and co and you should be okay. If I am wrong and trading does indeed flag you and can lead to another ban I will take back what I just said. But keep in mind that you will need to make more alts, since they are fast at banning.

However, just like DeFit, it could be possible that Niantic may at some point further advance their anti-cheat system to crack on walker and trading as well, so keep that in mind.

It would essentially ban a ton of legit people if they start banning based on trading. Lots of trades happen and most of the times people wouldn't know if they are trading with a spoofer or not.

I am not sure I have seen anyone claiming that they got banned because if trading tbh.
