Kinda reminds me those climate scammers IRL, who basically sell pure air and the general public have no clue.
Well done!

I love freedom in EVE! <3

I tried to scam Coreli Initiate once - didn't work.

Did I read this right? He put a 10 billion isk bounty on you after claiming he had only 100 million isk? The dishonesty of some people. I am glad he got scammed. Evil

Why was the collateral so low?

I applaud the underhand and devious nature with which the OP concluded his business but if the value of the gear was over half a billion ISK, then why was collateral not even a tenth of that? Pure financial stupidity.

The worst part is his toon is 4yrs and 3mo old and he is ceo of a corp....
No idea how he made the mistake of 20m, even if he meant to put 200m it was still less than half true value.
I am very happy with the result, who says monocle's do nothing lol, keeping my eye open for the next scam I really did enjoy this.

And you can enjoy the next step if you have an Alt. Join his Corp, Pop his Freighter while it Autopilots. Inform him he paid for the ship you used to do it.

To sum up this guys stupidity made me 560m from his 20m Collateral courier, on top of this I ransomed him back his box (an empty fake) for 100m on top.. 660m and a bloody good laugh.

EVE. You're doing it right.

Tell someone you love them today, because life is short. But scream it at them in Esperanto, because life is also terrifying and confusing.

Stupidity annoys me but 4 years and CEO? I think you should ask him to sign over his house to you, it might work going by that.

I have a lover, her name is EVE. I see her every night and all she asks in return is that I have a pilot's license.
