fixed


o.O

What did you fix?

It looks identical to me.

Also

You got scammed, the scammer got exactly what he set out to do, and it's the crappiest scam ever? Because he made his money while you lost it?

I guess in those 20 hours he was incapable of actually doing anything else, I bet he used the browser out of game and was glued to it like nobodies business! I'm totally sure he actually looked at all those sites also!

You sure showed him! What an idiot he is for getting slightly shy of a billion for creating an imaginary alliance!

You claim that you took "5 minutes" to get that money back...You mean, 20 hours and 5 minutes?

He only has scamming trained to 2. Big smile

Also that is a pretty poor payout for 20 hours of work, he could have made 3 times that in the same time running incursions.

You should take a step back and look at the time you spent on this forum apparently 'not caring' and calling him a 'noob scammer'.

This feeling of anal violation is what we forum pvp'ers refer to as 'butthurt'.

/emotes Welcome to Eve

Sugar Von MurdererTits : Jake Warbird gets my vote for most intriguing and attractive male character in Eve.

55 min while I played Somer Blink? idk my anus feels fine. Im aware I got scammed, and just like anything that doesnt go your way its annoying. I believe in the op i gave credit for the scam, want entertained me was the time invested vs the smal payout and the fact that he could have gotten more and turned it down. I figure if your gonna scam, then scam. Dont do half a job then send an eve mail like your some kind of big shot conman, you just look foolish which I tried to illustrate.. apparently I suck at that lmao. But props to the scammer i suppose 750m is big time, you can almost sell your toon for free now.


In the end, lesson learned, so I suppose that good. Im really gonna miss that 250m tho, i could have fit a domi :( lmao

250m is nothing, but 20 hours of my time? Holy crap, mate. You weren't scammed. You were GRIEFED! Something shocking as well.

I'd petition.

Yer... he managed to get 400m out of me, which was a deposit for some freighters. Supposedly TAG VI, his alt ( i believe from searching EVE SEARCH) would deliver the order and then contract it but the contract was a station container.

I'll give them this, they sure do set themselves up very nicely and professionally - I still believe scammers should be punished.

I feel your pain, but disagree this is what sets eve apart.

On a side note, if he was scamming multiple people with different scams at the same time then I shoudl apologize as I did not give him his due credit.

I'm not saying banned :P Punished some how, lol. You can't just go around scamming while thinking nothing will happen, just like you can't go wandering around null-sec in a faction fitted ship without some sort of 'gamle' on your part.

So he got your money collecting 750m isk for talking to you a few times, which in between I'm sure he did nothing special, while you spent 20 hours "brainstorming"?

Actually its a pretty decent scam. I don't see the "worst scammer" part.
The fact that you came out here to say "haha you are so bad" really fits the "Are U Mad Bro" award, which makes his scam even more successful.

Good job for him really.

So you just gave a random stranger 400 million isk and they're the ones who did something wrong?

Being passive aggressive is fun!


I think the scammer getting you to spend twenty hours 'brainstorming' on a scam is more pricelsss than the ISK he collected.
