How many stores / alts allowed?

Hello! How many stores are allowed to have one person in sl? and how many alts are allowed to have at all officially? Do I have the right to transfer the Linden to another person and/or my alt?

One MP store per account.  So if you have 12 alts, twelve stores.  And you can ALWAYS transfer L$ from one account to another.

How many alts?  Officially, 5, but in practice there's no real limit.  Linden Lab reserves the right to discourage you from creating an "army of alts."  They say, for example, "If you have many accounts already, additional accounts may incur an associated cost for maintenance. "  and "Linden Lab has various means of detecting illegitimate accounts and enforcing necessary limits to prevent fraud and other disruptive uses of Second Life and LindeX services. For security reasons, Linden Lab does not reveal exactly how fraud detection processes operate."  As long as you are not abusing the system in some way, Linden Lab has better things to do than count your alts.

Thanks!

And what for example, if I have two stores, and I transfers money from the second account to another and already withdraw money from it, how legal is it?

Perfectly.  All SL accounts are separate.  It doesn't make any difference whether you send money to your alt or to a perfect stranger.

For what it's worth, you can have as many in-world stores as you wish.
