Eva Tesla has a treasure game, that is a scam.

Privateers Holding is a scam corporation.

Sure, the player lets others "win" obviously always something worth much less than you invest in, but if you buy several "bookmarks", the player disappears from chat and cancels it altogether and puts you on ignore.

3 of the players that left a review (all from known alliances), were also in the channel that you were invited to, once again, to boost credibility so they are in this together.

I tried it out because of the website appearing to be honest and that some known alliance players that are in the scam together, have posted a positive review (again, they were in the same chat room that you were invited to but they were there just in idle). They were the following players:

Brbarlow195
LaurencecC DiNardo
Loudys

Very interesting that it were exactly those three characters in the chat room that also posted on the eve forums, perhaps all are the same persons with different accounts? But then again, probably just a coincidence eh?

Good luck Eva Tesla ! Sine your topic was apparently locked, and your name was clean on the eve forums, now it is save to say that it is not anymore ! Next time, do not run off after your victim only uses 130 mio isk, which is a 1 hour of highsec missioning on two accounts ;)

If you are upset about the conduct of a lottery on EVE Online, the correct way to handle this is to EVEmail SOMER Blink's complaints officer.

Oo this looks fun, thanks for directing us to an awesome gambling service! Its obviously stacked against the contestants, but do you have any proof that its a scam?

Try sending a mail to Ripard Teg, he's known for handling situations like this.

OP, the house ALWAYS wins.

Pretty much anything involving gambling is a scam of one sort or another.

In the beginning there was nothing, which exploded.

You know buried "treasure" can either be gold or a cat turd. If gambling was a legitimate practice and successful, Casinos would be out of business.

A smart gambler knows when a game is rigged, and when to walk away.

A ******* brilliant gambler knows better than to gamble with his own money.

De'Veldrin's Corollary (to Malcanis' Law): Any idea that seeks to limit the ability of a large nullsec bloc to do something in the name of allowing more small groups into sov null will inevitably make it that much harder for small groups to enter sov null.

To OP:

Great Chribba woman.

WIGS.

GET SOME.

Carry on.

Everything in EVE is a trap.

And if it isn't, it's your job to make it a trap...:)

You want to know what immorality in EVE Online looks like? Look no further than Ripard "Jester" Teg.

Chribba is the Chuck Norris of EVE.

You just linked to a lottery posted on the EVE forums and claimed it looks legit!? LOL!

Absolutely nothing posted on these forums, which involves you giving isk or assets to other players is legit! Remember that and you will lose a lot less money.

Scams don't exist in Eve the GM's put a stop to that back in the great Incarna expansion when they gifted us the greatest Captains Quarters we have ever laid our eyes on.

Welcome to Eve. Everyone here is an Evil Sick Sadistic Bastard who is out to get you. Anyone who tells you otherwise is either trying to scam you or use you.

I have always said that hungry Augustus Gloop fell into the chocolate river in Willy Wonka's factory due to his own greed.

His belly had already been somewhat saited, yet it craved more chocolate.

Wonka and the factory were not to blame.
