Hello, I'm new to Courier Contracts.

I want to know if it is "Advisable" to bring a Charon through to Null sec, or a Rhea if you are in a HS corp.

I used to be in a Null-sec corp for a year, so if I bring stuff to say... Goonswarm, would I be SOS since I'm a Neut?

The profit margin for doing this could be good, but some people are putting collateral at ridiculous values, 7 Billion ISK, 999b ISK. (fun scammies)

This just seems like a massive "Deathtrap".

Low-sec is also a problem :/

Shocked I don't see, what could go wrong...

But seriously, flying into Null in a freighter is suicide.
And if you are neutral to the Sov holders, you most likely don't have docking rights, so a Jump Freighter would be useless, too.
So you are aright about the "Deathtrap".

People like Goonswarm have their own logistics anyway.

Compared to Nullsec, not really.
A Blockade Runner is pretty safe. If you need more cargo space, a Deep Space Transport works aswell. You'd have to be more carfeul though. Use a scout, MWD+Cloak, etc...

Don't fly a freighter in null and don't fly a freighter in low, either, unless you really know what you're doing (as in you have support). You can jump freighter into low and NPC null pretty easily, though. Note I said NPC null, because having the ability to dock at a station is very important.

Freighters and jump freighters are ships designed solely for fleet use and are unsuitable for solo play.

This is true even in highsec but even more so outside high.
