Jita hellcamp avoidance
From: notreali ear

Hi,

I presume you are aware that in a little over 3 weeks on the 28th April the Goonswarm Federation (GSF) and their allies will begin a month long 'Jita hellcamp' where they will suicide gank as many freighters, transports and industrials as possible to destroy the Eve market hub. This could spell disaster for individuals, corporations and alliances that depend on a steady flow of materials and products to and from the Jita Market.

The reason for this mail is that I spotted you hauling to / from Jita and due to a successful attempt to infiltrate the GSF ranks I have stumbled across a method of avoiding the painful ganking that most will have to endure for the hellcamp month.

There is an 'opt out' website on the official goonfleet forums. Originally I am lead to believe it was built so that allies and neutral trading alts of the GSF could continue to trade during the planned month long market shutdown. However goons being goons they have started to 'sell' access to this list to members of the public for what I consider extortionate amounts.

The GSF prices are:
Jump freighter pilots 1 Billion
Freighter Pilots 500 Million
Industrials / transports 100 Million

Here is the web page: Jita will burn

I am offering you the chance to get on this list at a vastly reduced cost (25% of the above figures) and therefore be exempt from the attacks of the GSF fleets that will camp Jita.

Therefore I am prepared to add you to the list for the following fees:
Jump freighter pilots 250 million
Freighter Pilots 125 Million
Industrials / transports 25 Million

I am told that additions to the list cannot be made after the hellcamp begins so acting early is in your best interests. Also I am happy (while time permits) to take a deposit and add you to the list BEFORE full payment is made so that you can verify access has been granted. However, I would insist that in these circumstances unless the balance of the payment is made within 48 hours I reserve the right to remove you from the list and confiscate the deposit.

I add a charge here not for personal profit, even though thats what this game is all about. I have incurred considerable expenses to get to this opportunity and the ISK I make from this offer will help offset some of those costs as well as help you avoid the pain that haulers not on the list will be forced to endure.

Please feel free to convo me in game or reply directly to this mail. Also PLEASE bear in mind this offer is only on the table because I have infiltrated the GSF forums and if GSF members get wind of being undercut they may well start looking for the mole and close this route to immunity.

Regards

Paying a member of GSC for anything, is a foolish exercise in the axiom: "a fool and their isk is soon parted".

So...Goons will be sitting with a list of "clients" checking to be sure the ships they target aren't on the list before they shoot? That is so generous. Imagine a goon learning to read just for this event! I'm moved. They DO improve our community!

I want to be able to fly anywhere...

So I have 2 billion and I feel that I have to pay someone, so I don't get ganked in space, anywhere.
Who should I give the isk to? Is there some kind of collection agency that I can give the isk to and they'll give people a bit of that isk when they don't gank me?

If it works out, I'll pay another 2 billion for the next month? It is a month to month payment right?

I like these kind of scams, they're so much more creative and original than the usual "Give me ISK and I'll double it" or dyslexic missing 3 zeroes scams.

Would be funny if the high sec pirates among us decided to target those names already on the opt out list for hella-gankage.

The funny part?

1800 Goons in Jita, 200 bots. Nobody will be able to enter anyway. The gates will lock.

Yeah, that'll... be problematic.

Especially if we decide to try playing at market by trading tornados back and forth between ourselves (and empty the bots if we can). Isk sink, player made content!
