Also I wonder why CCP would allow this to continue since that domain is pretty misleading and could easily be used to spread malware targeted towards the EvE player base. CCP fail imo.

=====================
I'm Giving Away up to 7 BILLION ISK to Every Player!
Check Out My Wallet Journal API: (tricky link here)
Read My BIO For More Info: (link to scrub BIO)
SHARE THE WEALTH!
Send 1 isk to test my API.
====================

Tried to send 1.23ISK - for some journals i see it in history, for some - don't.
Site "API reader" doesn't allow easy registration so it looks very suspicious.

Just curious: where is the catch here? Looks like there is some filter by (something) in these "API journals". But if you don't see your donation you won't send more. Would anyone shed a light to this?

The scammers can make their website say what they choose. It could say they donated a pink elephant to you if that's what it's programmed to display. You might be able to get them banned for impersonating other players with the fake transactions. That's a stretch, though.

if their giveing isk a way but require something to give you isk their scamming. and dont have that isk to give away.

Same with the players who say give me isk and ill double it their scamming you.

or the players that say their quiting and giveing all their stuff away but require isk are scamming you.

Just close local and dont read it. 90% of the things put in LOCAL IS A SCAM.

For example: Erotica 1 use "i don't see your transaction because some troll trolled me bu hundreds of 0.01ISK transactions. Send it again...".


This. There's nothing legitimate about Erotica 1, no matter what paid tools or alternate characters say.

Amazing how the OP asks about a doubler and my name comes up more than anyone else in a positive light.

Just more proof that I am truly Eve's honest isk doubler. Notice how all the naysayers have never actually played my game.


I have played your game. Your game is ********. I was expecting something more clever than "flooded with 0.1 send again hurr durr" -

Holy crap, how many alts do you have, Erotica1? At least you didn't name them Erotica2, Erotica3, and so on. ISK doublers will always be scams. I have had a couple people send me ISK, but the most I had to give them was a thank you. There are decent people in this game, and none of them require you to put a down payment on their generosity.


I was wondering that as well, but only CCP's GM Team have access to this data, as Chribba said, multiple bots in major tradehubs, lots of posts, sure a helluva accounts.

Now, why CCP couldn't care less?

My research into this scam-scum revealed a screenshot from one of her victims where she actually admits that its nothing but a scam. I guess people that are stupid enough to believe in isk doublers deserve to be fooled, it's just annoying that they keep the scam going.

Post with your main, like a BOSS!

And no, i don't live in highsec.  As if that would make your opinion any less wrong.
