Murcielago Posted June 4, 2019 Posted June 4, 2019 Anyone want to start an investment firm? The minimum buy in is 100m INF and I guarantee that I will double your investment. Send your INF to @Murcielago! and then I'll run away with it.
justicebeliever Posted June 4, 2019 Posted June 4, 2019 I have questions 1.) The SEC (Superheroes exchange Commission) says you can't guarantee a return on investment 2.) Are you a register CFP (Certified Forum Participant) so we can be sure you won't just run off with our money? 3.) Will you be using ETF (Enhancement Traded for Funds) as part of investment to manage risk? Sorry, my Financial Planner side got the best of me....

Mr. Vee Posted June 5, 2019 Posted June 5, 2019 This seems fishy to me. It lacks the misspellings and grammar errors you normally see in legitimate investment offers and you never once called me beloved. Hard pass. 1

GamerKate Posted June 6, 2019 Posted June 6, 2019 I successfully scammed a famous ISK-scammer in EvE Online once. The amount was very small potatoes compared to her Billions, but I was very proud all the same. MCM

Profit Posted June 6, 2019 Posted June 6, 2019 Oh yes, details. I love reading about Eve. Won't actually play it but the stories are brilliant. lol There he goes. One of God's own prototypes. A high-powered mutant of some kind never even considered for mass production. Too weird to live, and too rare to die.
GamerKate Posted June 8, 2019 Posted June 8, 2019 I successfully scammed a famous ISK-scammer in EvE Online once. The amount was very small potatoes compared to her Billions, but I was very proud all the same. MCM Details please... I forget what her name was, she was the one who was subsequently permabanned for having a special ‘bonus room’ where she and her horrible cronies would make noobs read Alice in wonderland and sing stupid songs and delete their characters etc over VoIP and laugh about it. Something-1 I think. She had an ISK-doubling scam where you had to ‘follow the rules’ written in her bio (or whatever the Eve equivalent is called, I forget now). One of the rules was that you could try this thing three times. And each time you had to offer her at least double what you got back the first time (maybe the maths was a little different but the gist was that the third time the mark would be offering huge amounts). I guess the scam worked like this: she’d give back double the ISk the mark put up twice, so they’d think it was legit and on the third attempt the mark would give everything. Then she’d claim that the mark hadn’t followed the rules correctly or claim she’d sent the ISk but he Mark was lying or some other bullshit response. But she'D Keep the ISK. I didn’t know how it worked, but it was obviously a scam because all Isk-doubling schemes are scams lol, so I figured the simplest explanation was that the first double and the second would work to fool the mark into trusting her. And then she’d simply keep the third. So I PMed her saying I thought I’d Worked out her rules and that I was in a 2-person Corp with my wife (who I totally made up, my Corp did just have two members but the other one was a good friend) and that I wanted to double our ISK three times so I could surprise my wife with an expensive ship for our anniversary. She jumped at the chance to ‘help’ me out. I told her we only had about 500million ISK, but that I’d worked out I could get that up to a few billion or so if I played the game right. I said I needed to be sure it wasn’t a scam first of course, so I’d start with 40million ISK. SHe said that was a good idea and I was obviously smart not to trust someone straight away. So I gave her 40 million ISK, and she immediately gave me back 80mil. Bear in mind that this figure is really pretty small in EvE, especially to a vet player like her. Anyway, then I paused for a few minutes without saying anything in chat, and she was ‘hello? Where are you?’ I went back to chat with ‘hello, this is John’s wife. He’s an idiot and he’s not playing your game anymore’ Then I waited 30 seconds and typed ‘hi. This is John. She’s really pissed at me, I’m sorry but I can’t play anymore. She thinks you’re a scammer even though I just showed her you’re not, but she says if I keep playing your game I’m sleeping on the couch tonight :( ‘ She was not happy, started ranting about reporting me for multiple people using the same account. I told her my wife had her own account and she had just used chat for one sentence, and apologised again and told her with an air of innocence that 40million was at least a little help towards our expensive ship and that I could now vouch for her isk-doubling scheme as it was clearly legit! And that was it. 40million ISK for her was less than a drop in the ocean, she had multiple billions. I was never very good at making money In Eve, I was a miner, so it was a bit more for me. But the amount wasn’t the point. After reading about her frankly vile behaviour on the forums, the joy I felt at scamming her was awesome. And all that guff about my wife? As Henry Gondorff says in The Sting, “You gotta keep his con even after you take his money. He can't know you took him.” - I could have crowed about scamming the scammer etc but then she’d have no doubt gone the ‘pff, 40 mil is nothing!’ route, which wasn’t the point, and I’d have made a powerful EvE player pissed at me. But she left our chat thinking I was still a mark, albeit a lucky one, when in fact she was the mark this time. I saved the chatlog. Rereading it was to me riches beyond Space Rich lol. MCM 1

Clave Dark 5 Posted June 9, 2019 Posted June 9, 2019 Erotica1 was the name of the player, I remembered it. MCM That's a great story, played out well. You gave her reasons to take you for a rube and she took the bait. Then never spoiled the con which kept her mad about it, rtaher than dismissing the amount as tiny.
