Even though he's said, in terrible English, that he just makes new ones?

Moral of the story, only pay AFTER you have the hole. Ideally, AFTER you have the POS setup and onlined.

Post with your main, like a BOSS!

And no, i don't live in highsec.  As if that would make your opinion any less wrong.

as an infrequent seller: you might as well just give them the entrance and leave then

it's the only card a wormhole seller has: they don't know where it is.


i refuse to give up a position closer then 6 jumps away (for mathmatical reasons) before i get full payment, the chances on getting shafted for the fee are way to high to risk having wasted the time.

a seller should offer full payment in advance or buyer gets a 3rd party, payment after or half/half is just asking for problems.

I assume you meant to say "always use a 3rd party"...

The plot thickens..

Thank you for everyone's contribution. Quite impressive that we even get a possible ID on the guy's main & alts.

I had further contact with ProbeAlt2... he was trying to negotiate a deal for me to remove my forum posts, however his last message contained a brag of a 4bil scam. I have no idea who cklm is but if he is known to have done a 4bil scam then it adds a bit of weight to the allegation.

That was quite the email chain you had with him.

I emailed him on all his characters, He threatened to report me because I had "access to his accounts" and would get me permabanned.

Guess he doesn't know how API's work, but he's since FINALLY purged it after 2 months or so.

I've bought a wormhole, and i refused to sell before i had setup. If they have a problem with that, then i'd have politely told them to forget it, and wait for someone else to find the hole i'm after. There are, afterall, tones of people exploring wh-space every day, you only need one honourable one to ensure that you aren't scammed. Offer a decent enough price, and they should be more than willing to accept your terms. If they're not, then probably best not to trust them. That would be my advice, far too much scum playing EvE online.

I've yet to use a 3rd party, and all my sales have gone through without a problem. Maybe I've been lucky, but I think if you just show a little trust, in general it's rewarded. See my Bio for previous sales references and my general sales info.
