This is a great example of why RMT is so hard to hide. There's tons of ways to make a single transaction appear legitimate. There are not a lot of ways to make having a constant habit of sending money to random people appear legitimate.

you should edit the OP thread title to "RMT contracts revealed" or something more eye catching

Easily the best thread in GD today. With that list, you could potentially do an awful lot of (completly justifiable) damage.

Paranoia willdestroya, guys and girls. Yes, failed contracts were part of a big scheme... of agreements between certain inter-alliance spies. I'm but a part of a chain. Too bad I was discovered - and, I guess, some of my comrades as well. But it's life. It is, well, dark side of EVE, but is noway forbidden by rules. Do you really think I'd take such an obvious name, and run such a lot of easily noticeable deals if I was RMTing? Get real.

Other than that, I live pretty much common life of a capsuleer. I enjoy claim wars with my main, I run missions to cover my ship losses, I build and sell ships, and so forth. Now, do you know why did this topic appear? It's all about competition Big smile Sometimes I get drops of Zor's Custom Navigation Hyper-Link. As I'm not a tackler, I have no use for them - so I sell them via contracts. Sometimes I get two of them per day, sometimes none. Today I've got lucky streak of "Right Hand" + "Damsel", and got 4 of them. And placed it all for sale. Know what? Some jealous dude called "Lord Jita" (who is, obviously, trade char of this topic OP) sends me a message about "crashing zor market". Out of curiosity, I check his own deals in this area. And OMFG - he sells about 50 of them each week! Without buying at least one. And he's still picking on someone selling 1-2 imps daily. Well yes, he might of course buy it elsewhere with other chars... but he can as well just run an ultimate bot farm which farms missions for ages. No living human can play so much manually, to farm about 7 chips every day - their drop chance is rather low. So I'd suggest CCP to check his account and his money flow as well.

Oh, and shuttle? It was a scam. My fault.

Funny thing, he doesnt even need to make some of those contracts public . Personal contract would have worked fine.
No doubt milking the "plausible deniability" line.

Also notice those contracts were accepted with 2-3 mins of issuance - meaning it's a planned set up.

Edit: To note a point on the shuttle as claimed by the xxFencexx character, a 2mins scam?
Very successful scam I must say.

Indeed, we've privately agreed to set up a contract. For BPO. Another BPO, though. Too bad I was too trustful. Won't happen in the future anymore.

Don't forget the courier contracts. This guy says he wouldn't fake the name of "Fence" because it's too obvious? Ever heard of hiding in plain sight? That, or just being dumb?

Nice catch OP, forward this to CCP.

While the Couriers would work for the "lets hide my cargo" thing, the insane BP contracts put that out.

Let me guess, setting them as a public contract was an accident.
Sorry. Plural form. Accidents.

I noticed this guy accepts and fails tons courier contracts, losing between 1b and 3b of collateral for each one over last few months . All from different characters in different alliances. Um... so that's interesting....

I dig deeper and look at contracts from some of the other characters he failed the contracts from. MORE OF THE SAME.

Then I notice other things. Regularly BUYING cheap BPCs for billions of isk.

1b for a prophecy bpc?

There are literally DOZENS of contracts like this. A shuttle BPO for 1b? sure why not! What a deal!
http://i.imgur.com/b3yZz.png

Is this guy legitimately doing something that is beyond my understanding? Why not just send isk directly? Is this guy running RMT operation under noses of CCP using failed courier contracts and blueprint contracts to move the isk? Is this a common method? What is a real reason anyone would do something like this? Curious to hear others thoughts.


update: I convoed one of the people that issued one of these courrier contracts, guy seemed friendly at first then immediately leaves convo when I asked about his failed contract.


LoL you've just opened up the biggest can of you know what iv seen in months lol 11 out of 10 goddamn, why didn't I think of this...

That sounds like a good idea!

In the meanwhile I will lock this thread as there is nothing to discuss here.
