Preventing multiple login simultaneously
I know there are a lot of other threads about this but they all seem to be old at this point and not sure if anything has changed. Is there still no way to prevent multiple login? I have clients signing in using playfab then connecting to photon. I don't want it where people can use the same account in multiple places at the same time. Is there a way to prevent this? I know in one of the other threads you guys mentioned cloud scripting, is this still the only way?
Also, is there a feature to prevent users from purchasing same item twice? or will this have to be done in the clients device by checking and removing the items.

I believe you have searched for this thread: https://community.playfab.com/questions/382/206721757-How-to-prevent-duplicate-login-.html, and it is still an effective solution to prevent multiple login for now. Besides, as Brendan said, we will be adding session-based login tokens at a later date, at which point you'll be able to invalidate previous tokens for the account on a login. Please keep track on our blog website on: https://blog.playfab.com/blog and we'll be making sure to call this out in our News updates as soon as this is available.
For making an item purchased only once by a player, PlayFab does not provide this feature for now. we recommend that you filter the item out of the list of those shown to the player in the in-game interface, and not allow the player to purchase it via the client. But it should be noted that some hackers could still bypass this and purchase more than one item via HTTP Request tool like Postman.
