This has been happening for a long while now, CCP seems to have the policy of take first ask questions later, they also monitor all large isk transfers because isk buyers like to get rid of their isk as fast as possible.
I personally have mixed feelings about their policy, but only because I have had 4.5bil taken from my wallet and accused of breaking the EULA after selling a character legally through the forums to a person with illicit isk.
I of course made a forums post and had no real response. The masses always assume you did something wrong.
If a GM takes isk from your wallet and you can PROVE you had no illegal wrong doings, you should petition with HIGH priority. Explain your case and at least in my case I had the isk returned and went along my way.

I don't honestly think CCP is out to screw over the innocent. I do agree with monitoring large isk transfers. There are still too many ways for isk sellers/buyers to get away with spending illicit isk.
I dont know how hard it is to differentiate between innocent party and guilty party.
But I think most of these threads are started by people who feel they did not have a proper pipe of communication with CCP or are just whining because they were at fault.
Personally when I was accused, it was quite hard to find the correct pipe, was it an exploit petition or ... etc etc which I hope CCP has changed with the support upgrades.
Yes CCP are people too and mistakes happen, but remember just because you are a GM doesnt mean you are right always (Double edged sword :P).
Ultimately, the forums are a perfect place to discuss this sort of stuff, but not a place for accusations.
However this thread begs the question, "Perhaps we are still lacking a sufficient communication channel?"

In no way am I trying to support isk selling or buying, BUT I want to make it abundantly clear that this kind of stuff happens to honest/innocent people.
Like I said before, it is a problem that has happened before and will happen again while illegal isk selling/buying is available and so closely related to legal scamming.
In my case I did get the isk back, which maybe I should have received the character back at any rate, I don't want people to discredit or blow off as simple whine.
It is an issue with the current system that I am sure CCP is aware of.
Proof.
PIC!
Thought I would add, if you can not prove your claim then I would say the GM has every right to remove the isk. I am not standing up for anyone.

Firstly, I would like to point out any discussion about the matter at hand with no experience dealing with a similar incident is quite invalid and pointless.
Like I said before the masses will always assume you are wrong, simple.
I support Prism 100% here, the OP needs to prove his case. I will repeat myself once more, if you prove your case you will most likely get justice. Give him a chance people.
What most are squabbling about is whether or not CCP should take isk first before verifying the account is innocent, and in most cases this method works. Of course there are those instances where they mess up, Hence we have a GM trying to help. What is interesting is it always seems these issues arise because of someones lack of communication, GM or Player.
