I had high hopes for this thread based on some of the people posting in it.
sad to end this way :(.

Money at its root is a form of rationing. When the richest 85 people have as much wealth as the poorest 3.5 billion (50% of humanity) it is clear where the source of poverty is. http://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2014/jan/20/trickle-down-economics-broken-promise-richest-85

Was I REALLY the only person that was confused about the names????

LOL this has win written all over it, which is nice because so much of MD is essence of fail recently.
I don't mind scammers, a good scam can leave behind a great story, but only for people who put the effort it. The youth of today "I know I'll just copy and paste someone else's scam" - where's the glorious tale in that?
If you can't be arsed to put the effort in and do it properly don't do it at all.

Mine was not a scam. If you read through the thread, I ran the bond for over 8 months and paid out over 2.5 billion in interest. i believe the OP just searched for a successful bond and copied it because he knew it would look legit. Maybe his was a scam, and maybe it was not, but he clearly did not put in a ton of effort into setting it up.

Apologies I didn't mean to imply your thread was a scam, but clearly my post reads like that. That was unintentional and sloppy on my part.
I also meant what I said in a wider sense, scammers seem so lazy these days, it's all copy and paste. The really good scammers that form the legend and lore of Eve actually put original effort in.

Again clearly your thread has nothing to do with scamming beyond being copied by a lazy scammer.

Well, that's proof I was wrong on this one. Well played, Tear Jar.

You had me fooled after our chat about the market in minerbumping channel. I honestly believed you were legit with this one, and I'm glad I didn't have any ISK to lose to you.

Respect - you're the first person that's fooled me in a while. GF.

I look forward to the second offering. It appears I missed this one.

After you find use for the 4b, will you be expanding this to 8-10b or more soon?

See Bio for isk doubling rules. If you didn't read bio, chances are you funded those who did.

After the success of the first round, I have decided to expand my bond request to 8 billion isk. We will see if new investors are still interested.

Back at the time, scammers had to be sharper because there were people who checked their offers and their APIs.

The one question nobody was asking: "Who is John Galt?" It doesn't get much more ironic than that!

I noticed the name right away due to it's nature, but I just assumed it was an appropriate name for a trading alt (although I suppose invention might be a more suitable profession yet). Due to the nature of the person who would name their character something like that I thought of going for it based solely on the name- I mean, who would miss an opportunity to invest with John Galt!?! But fortunately I forgot about it. I could handle it if I got scammed by John Galt, but an imposter would have been a low blow.

Too bad the Little Urban Achievers lost money too, especially so soon after Brint died. Hopefully they didn't really invest and money and just gave this guy a ringer filled with whites.

No, I received the full 4 billion in loans. It was a great success.
