Indeed. The scammer in this case did no such thing. He simply made a contract.


rofl! he pretended to be the person (similar name ) and targeted him based on bids with a fake win. So yeah its a ban.
ban ban ban ban ban XD



It's not what you know, it's what you can prove.


well you got the name there in the image which is very similar.
then you got a contract with the fake name.
in anybodies book, thats impersonating. so yeah
if the contract wasnt direct to him, then he probably could get away with it but he contracted it directly to him with a fake name!

i understand why this is not allowed. i could inpersonate CCP employees or something like that and make a fortune.


Many of us have similar names but that does not mean we are impersonating our namely counterparts. He never said he was this website, he only made a contract. And whats the first rule of accepting contracts? Read them!

lol come on. you know in this case is a clear example of impersonation. I am sure if CCP lets this out then that means i can tomorrow create a character and call it CCP Sregg and make a killing without geting banned. Or i could create one called The Mitttani and make trillions. His production manager probably gets many contracts everyday so if i put up 1contracts with that name, its very likelly to get it.
CCP did this in the past before here BOB before created CCCP and then were told to close it by CCP much for the same reasons

No I don't know.
No you can't, check the EULA.
Yes you can make a similar name and make trillions as long as you don't claim you are the Mittani himself, though you not being in GSF should be a dead giveaway. Go ahead, type in the name and see how many hits you get. I'll wait. My personal favorite are the Captain Kirk's.

It's not what you know, it's what you can prove.

Intent. And no, CCP doesn't have to "prove" anything. Suspicion is enough to get you banned. They reserve the right to ban you at any time without proof of anything or for no reason at all (read the EULA). It doesn't mean they will. It just means don't get stupid with them because they have the ace in the hole... Always. This isn't a court room where you can smirk and finger the judge off because you think they'll never find the body. And claiming that you just happened to have named a character with a similar name of someone who does lotteries and you just happened to make a contract for this other someone's lottery winner at an exorbitantly high price, babbling that they have to prove impersonation-scam first, *is* getting pretty stupid.

So again, suspicion of intent is enough to get you banned.

well either way its very clear that ccp is gonna screw this guy over based on what was posted by CCP. I am just not sure of what kind of punishment does he gets....I am sure they wont disclose it cos of the whole privacy thing.

It may or may not be very clear what ccp will do, that is between them and the 2 parties. But like I said, it's not what you know, its what you can prove. By the way, you may want to contact them and tell them about a shady character named somer bling, he's obviously up to no good with that name.
