This is usually used in trading, where the player forms the other characters under his control and trades with a much larger cargo space than it would be possible with one character.
This is considered cheating on the Official Discovery Freelancer Server.
Trying to lie about your situation can lead to harsh sanctions, usually deleting the ships and money involved. If a player is caught multiboxing, usually very easy to spot due to ping similarities between characters, they undergo a ''multiboxing test'' where the admin requires the player to perfom different actions to confirm if there is one or multiple players behind the characters involved.
EDIT: If you have a brother or friend, who tends to play in the same house as you at the same time as you, it is highly advisable to contact the admin team in private and explain the situation before you try doing this.
What if... Oh, nevermind, you've replied me in edit.
