Obviously with another char.

Their strategy is easy, they pay the first couple of isk you send them, to earn your trust, then they'll get the big final investment.

But there are so many of them, all you really have to do is pay the first investment and wait.

I sent 150M to all of them and got 300M from all of them. (And i'm not even joking)

I feel like a true winer.

Fly safe brothers and sisters.

Pro-tip: Bonus points if you get a convo and pretend you're a half brain dead kid with too much money on their hands.

I made a little bit of money doing this.

I sent one of them 100k, they sent me 200. Then I sent them 150k, they sent me 300k. And so on.

I've... seen things you people wouldn't believe...

I've once sent 1ISK to a guy in Jita and they sent back 10 ISK. Now I can enjoy a life of luxury, all thanks to the kind and legit capsuleer.

I don't see the problem here. Is 500m a lot of money now?

For me it is.

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.

I love the way you respond trying to be all cool and such, you most likely don't even have 5b in your wallet do you? And if 500m isn't much to you send it to me

A friend and I once cleaned a scammer out of about 1.5 bil. Using alts, we sent him isk in small but increasing amounts to figure out where his "keep" threshold was. This particular guy was 20 mil. We then biomassed and replaced all our throwaway alts, waited a couple of weeks, and when we saw him post again sent him 15-18 mil from each alt. Wash rinse repeat, over the course of two months we were siphoning 150-200 mil a week off the guy.
