I was Scammed

So there i was growing bored of high sec and looking for something a little more exiting/worth my time.

Along comes a guy from a corp called 'we lock reds die' and starts selling me his pitch, according to him, the corp is a training corp for TEST Alliance.

He tells me everything i want to hear, and stupidly i believed him and wanted to join.

Even more stupidly, i fall for the 'we'll bring your stuff in for you' line. Dunno why i fell for it as im usually pretty alert, maybe the fact it was a corp in a big alliance that got me a little distracted.

Result was approx 3b of my stuff and a few hundred millions for a security deposit. - Go ahead flame me, i deserve it for being dumb.

I just want to get it out there that this corp is in no way affiliated with TEST Alliance, at all, period.

http://www.welockredsdie.bravehost.com/index.html < fake website doesnt even work.



I dont want my stuff back, i wouldnt give them the satisfaction of asking.

They are a corp full of scammers, all of them alts or mains i dunno or care anymore, its quite easy to tell when you go to Evewho and look up their corp.

http://evewho.com/corp/We+Lock+Reds+Die

Seems every memeber of their corp is a recruiter/logistics/hr/JF pilot or and mix of the above when looked up in game.

Dont let these scammers profit anymore from gaining your trust then blocking you when they get what they want.

lastly - THIS CORP IS FAKE, HAS NO TIES TO TEST ALLIANCE AND EVERY MEMBER IS A SCAMMER!!!!!!

DONT BELIEVE A WORD THESE GUYS TELL YOU AND DONT BE ANOTHER VICTIM LIKE ME!!

Well, takes a man to admit he made a mistake and warn others about it. Live and learn and don't regret.

okay. getting scammed by TEST is bad enough but getting scammed by a corp who is pretending to be TEST is even worse.

You should biomass all your characters, cancel all your accounts and never utter the word Eve again,

Embarrassment?

But the clue was there right from the start when they mentioned TEST lol

Chalk it down to experience op and carry on regardless.

Not much to be embarrassed about, happens to everyone at one stage or another weather they like to admit it or not, i lasted 6 years before i fell for a silly market scam due to my price filter being reversed.. I currently hold the record for buying the most expensive cyno gen in geminite, a cool 2.8bisk.... I got the money back thankfully cause the highest buyer happened to be an alliance member at the time lol i got lucky.


Also whats to be embarrassed about? The internet people you dont know, have never met and wont have any feasible/known interaction with outside a fictional game, thinking your silly? :P

Maybe he feels stupid for falling for it as he said he considers himself pretty 'alert' most the time.

But regardless, another scammer corp has been outed so maybe it'll save a few people from falling for it in future.

A corp asking for a "security deposit" always = scam.

Then you gave them your stuff???

You deserved this one for being a complete idiot...

This might work better if people pretended to be affiliated with alliances that have better reputations than TEST for this sort of thing.
