In a recent anonymous game, i was red and brown who was next to me nonstop gifted things and gave me outposts which I thought was ok because we were allies.

People doing this is pretty annoying. The only thing you can really do is tell everyone that you aren't multiboxing and hope they listen to you. It'll be pretty difficult to do though.

But he said he wasn't. Someone else was pretending like they were.

And also, even if you know the person IRL, you aren't technically always going to multibox. We've seen that from some forumers, they play together but will still attack each other

Not really. It's only multi-boxing if you join the game intentionally to ally with them playing with people you know on its own isn't a problem.
