hi. i know that it is bad to go onto another players account. and that buying rubies for other people is also bad. but i am wondering What is to stop players from doing this?? It seems this happens. isn't it dangerous to let someone else buy rubies for you? why?

Well....
Going on into another account in same server is a ToS breach so doing something with a traceable paper trail back to a single user is presumably a good way for ggs to suspend all linked accounts and maybe seek an explanation (presume they would ask for proof if defence was minor being subbed by parents...)
The more real reason is that if someone else is offering you an inducement FOR YOU to give YOUR account details to THEM with the offer that they'll put rubies into your account then its a real easy way for them to take over and abuse you account..... once you've given them the keys they can trash it completely and you've no comeback.... suggest that if someone is offering to do this for you then forward details to support PDQ.
Sounds like too good a deal, then it probably is. Think Scam and what's really in it for someone else.....
I don't buy rubies but lets hope GGS doesn't hold records of payments but the other issue with some payment systems if it will have recorded some of you personal info, so you hand your account over to someone else, then you are giving away personal information.... not least your real world email!
@BM Neroxnex @BM Fujiwara Hopefully a mod can add more good reasons not to share account info with anyone....

You do not have to go into others account to buy rubies for others , the players has just have to send the link to another player.
Although i dont do this because i am too tight, i dont see a problem of someone spending there money how they wish , after all its there money,

Yes if player a opens the shop shares the link and before the session if the link expires someone else uses that link to purchase rubies it will be credited to player a, I see this as being no different then giving someone else a giftBIGTtheMULLER (INT1) said:You do not have to go into others account to buy rubies for others , the players has just have to send the link to another player.

just my 2c & call me un-trusting but, leaving behind the parent/child & other close relationship, would it really be worth putting yourself hostage to whim of another player you don't know except via the web?
So, while Herve is right in saying a genuine gift is probably no harm... We do know GGS will ban faster than a fast thing on a slow day for financial wrong doings against them : So you'd really let someone buy rubies on a link to your account knowing that they can then do a reverse charge or S75 with their card company and leave you high and dry should they want to (well, only in next 120 days...)???
And while I'm sure support wouldn't hand over an account to someone just because they can identify the last credit card details and payment on an account, it would make a nice piece of window dressing should you want to do that sort of thing
As for "paying" for rubies from someone else other than GGS..... pretty sure that's a T&C violation that would get accounts deleted if caught 9.3f "a user uses virtual items being used in online or mobile games outside of the online or mobile games, attempts to buy or sell these virtual items for "real" money, or tries to trade them," .... not sure how far they'd take the limits of "trade".....
