Ok the short version chatting to a guy for 3 odd weeks about booster manufacturing and its complexities and how to best run the POS etc.
Gets to know me etc etc chatting away having a few laughs.
Tells me he will help me set it up in a c2 wormhole and haul the POS for me.

Basically lose 1.7 bil Isk in the scam so thanks for a invaluable relatively cheap lesson here .

No hard feelings just be forewarned people.

Yeah that was a small loss to be honest. He could've set up a punishing long con from that.

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.

Proof is in the digging bud, do a little yourself if your so fixated on proof of event.( which is what I should have done in the beginning but obviously didn't)
Run the guys forum logs it's all there.

But your post still hasn't injected the much needed elixer of proof into the veins of this spasm-wracked body of a thread. Won't you please think of the thread?

1.7 billion is kind of a lot of money. If it happened to me, I'd probably quit the game. CCP would have a piece of my mind on these forums too.

I wrote some true EVE stories! And no, they're not of the generic "my 0.0 alliance had lots of 0.0 fleets and took a lot of 0.0 space" sort. Check them out here:

It's not how you fall, it's how you get up again and dust yourself off that counts.That's what Uncle Alfred said at least. Blink
Friends are better than enemies in this game, and that guy has none, so hey that simple fact makes me say "have your little toy Isk scam as you refect your real self by your actions"
No one likes a thief no matter what the format.
Butt hurt I am not, as 1.7 Bil is peanuts in comparison to the unmasking of a scammer, think of the adventure that awaits. Twisted

Your proof is unrefutable.

Since the cessation of their usefulness is imminent, may I appropriate your belongings?

Since I cannot post up chat logs here, as it's against T&C, and I am not giving you my wallet API key how would you suggest I would provide the so called proof you need?
If your so in need of some check through his forum posts the ducks line up, do the maths.
This thread is to hopefully help others avoid any interaction with Beta Bank, how that is perceived or interpreted is up to the individual, but you have the knowledge now, therefore if you enter into business with this thief then I guess you get what you get.

Could you use any more euphemisms for 'find out yourself'? I suppose screenshots are a good start.

Uncle Alfred said "with no power comes no responsibility." I think you're confusing him with that guy from Iron Man.

Regardless, if exposing a scammer was so intensely satisfying for you, then I have a deal you can't refuse. You simply allow me to scam you out of 1.5bil, and then you can have the pleasure of starting another thread unmasking my theft. In fact, you could just give me the ISK and skip the whole scamming process since no one will expect you to provide proof anyway. Feel free to offer more if you think this bargain looks too good to be true.

Who put the goat in there?
