Hello fellow Industrialist!

I am sure you are aware of the current war between the awesome TEST alliance and the evil Goons/CFC. Sadly the recent turn of events forces me to look at every possible way to hurt CFC. Because of that i am now risking my spy alt in one of CFC's industry corps.

I have managed to get into a major position inside that corporation in which i am able to alter the list of other corps that are allowed into their sovereinity space to mine. All people and corps on that list are set to blue for the alliance, gain access to stations, they are safe to go where they please inside the sov and are even protected by the Goons. Usually permits like that are sold for very high monthly prices depending on the number of people inside a corp. I am planning on taking all of that profit away from the Goons in order to support our cause of reclaiming the Fountain region. I don't think i need to tell you how much more ISK you can make mining in 0.0 compared to empire space, so there even are good profits to be made for you!

How? Simply by putting your corporation on that list without a single penny in CFC's wallet!

In addition to the lost income for CFC and the tied up forces for your protection i must ask you also for a small fee to help us fund this just war. This will be a one time thing and not dependant on the size or experience of your corp, although we would be grateful if you could do more to support our war efforts in these dire times.

This will be a once a lifetime fee of just 1b ISK for your whole corporation, that allows you to stay and mine safely within all of CFC's territory forever. Once you are inside the CFC industry system you also gain access to an alliance paid jump freighter service, so you can get your profits safely to a trading hub. This permit will also extend to any TEST Alliance territory once we reclaim the Fountain region!

If you and your corporation wish to take part in this agenda please send the mentioned fee to this char: My Forum Alt . Once i receive the fee i will put your corp on the list as soon as possible, get you into contact with their hauling staff to move your assets and you will be able to enjoy the full benefits of CFC industrial access after the next downtime!


Thank you for supporting TEST!

Yours sincerly,
a friend of TEST
(I hope you understand that my main accounts must stay hidden for this mission)

Just thought i'd put that out there for those few who may have fallen for this and for sh*ts and giggles.

First of all, this doesn't make any sense at all. If we were to support TEST, why woudl we mine and manufacture for CFC? If CFC actually did allow people to join and do stuff like this then to hell with TEST. What usually would happen here is the corp woudl join, have all their stuff hauled to CFC space, and then killed and kicked from alliance. It just goes to show: Never trust a goon, real or fake.

Advance fee scam? The Nigerians are playing EVE!

Quick, everyone get out your 4-1-9 Bingo cards!

Ivan, thanks for bringing this to the attention of the community. Your actions will help this scheme from ever succeeding simply by posting it here.

I hate scammers. That's why I took one of their oldest games and made a legit operation out of it. I make more isk by running an honest isk doubling business than any of the scammers ever made. See my bio for details, and I hope to add you to the lengthy winners list.

Good luck and fly safe!

You sir, do the work of angels.

and i thought you just changed his name in your op but it really is his charactername. haha

I have to try this, but exchange TEST for Pizza.

Their logistics directors already took care of that and stole billions of isk in assets from them.
