example



there is a player who wil buys a module for 200,000,000 isk by piece 7x.

there are none others module in the system to buy.


he place the same time a module for 5x 150,000,000 isk and 2x 215,000,000 isk for sale.Twisted

also place he a contract with same the module 7x for 750,000,000 isk for sale. Twisted

if you sells the module for 7x 200,000,000 isk for a total of 1,300,000,000 isk

cant the 1,300,000,000 isk not collected at the purchaser and place he my 7 module at sellers for 200,000,000 isk by piece.


look out for this form of swindle

It's abuse of game mechanics and it's becoming very prolific across many, many items.

Hopefully CCP will fix the abuse.

This is not a scam, but an abuse of game mechanics.

Get a grip. It is nothing alike. It's an abuse of market mechanics.
