Account Suspension Shortly After Buying AP[]
This is done as a security measure by Aeria Games. This is not in any way related to Ironsight. Your account should be reinstated within 48 hours. If not, file a support ticket to the Gamigo Website here.
Inability To Un-Equip Items[]
This problem is common with shoulderguards for some reason, however the method is the same regardless of whether it's an attachment or a customization item.

If the offending item is a weapon attachment, or weapon itself, replace the weapon with another, then re-equip the original weapon if desired.

Missing currency and items should be reported in a support ticket to the Gamigo Website here.
