Investment. Ref: 338Inv

From: AIt T00n
To: Lauren Hellfury


The Information that you are about to recieve is CLASSIFIED. Mention of this to a 3rd party is NOT recommended and you WILL suffer dearly for leaking information.

Your unique reference is: 338Inv
This should be in the subject of any correspondance.

We are planning something BIG. Something groundshakingly BIG.

It is going be on an epic scale, and going to involve a couple thousand capsualeers.

I have been reliably informed that you are capable of providing funding to our cause if promised a large scale return.

We would like to stress that this is NOT a scam. This is a call to arms! This my friend is a call to WAR!

We are looking for INVESTORS willing to support the cause, it will be on a shareholder basis and you WILL recieve a significant return on your investment, to a MINIMUM value of 14%.

Numerous manufactures have been contacted to produce other ships, and at least 20corps are grinding out mods and ammunition, and money is needed to fund the orders.

This will be a cookie cutter fleet with a pilot assigned a standard fit for his role in the wing.

Timescale is not really a factor at the moment as we are still in the sourcing and planning stage of this operation, however when you contact us we can discuss the timescales of the return on your investment to a proper standard.

I look forward to hearing from you.

With Hope and In Good Will,

Wonder why it is recommended that I don't divulge this to 3rd parties? Also wonder how they intend to make me suffer dearly.

Still, gotta love random CAPS

To make with timely throbbing it is importantly to have thrusting quickness.

You left off the last line when you copied and pasted it to the forums.

I don't know man it looks legit, at no point did they mention they were a Nigerian Prince, the King of America, Prince of Russia, or even an magical gypsy with a delorean with an alamac telling the outcome of all future sporting events.

Welcome to Eve. Everyone here is an Evil Sick Sadistic Bastard who is out to get you. Anyone who tells you otherwise is either trying to scam you or use you.

Is this what happens when role players try their hand at scamming?

It'd be quicker to lose your ISK if you just sent it to me. It will be frivolously spent on booze and hookers.

My main also has this problem! Its all fun and games.
Only difference with yours and mine is that i didnt buy the toon, i made it from scratch and then accidently ruined its reputation by pulling off a few scams and a billion isk heist - and then realized how important your reputation is in EVE, when i attempted to find a new corp to try stuff my current corp cant offer. in the end i've just stayed in my current corp, but im a director so i can do what i want anyways! If your still struggling i may be able to help you out, mail this toon and i'll get back to you.


I swear that in "the good ole days" (when it were all fields round 'ere) people put more effort into their scams.

A scam you say? Hmmmm... Is there any way to reverse a player to player transaction like you can with a real bank?
