Is it possible to commit insurance fraud on this game over and over again? You know, where you take out a huge insurace policy and destroy you ship, to cash in. I know you can do it, but can you do it more than once? Or will CONCORD get suspicious if it keeps happening? Just wondering... Im not going to do that if it works, oh no... Adziy

Works just fine...but unless you're somehow getting the ships for real cheap, actually making isk from this is probably dicey. Insurance payout - ( Cost of ship + cost of insurance ) is typically not a positive number.
Now, taking a crap-ton of ships from the corporate hangar...insuring and then self destructing them, works. But you might actually make more isk just by selling the ships on the market. --

In short (since it seemed these were TL;DR for you) Yes, You can do it. No, you probably won't make money .

If you can steel the ship, thus getting it free you will make isk. But if you are going to do that you should just sell the ship and not have to pay the insurance cost.

Edited by: Adziy on 20/05/2009 18:03:53 What about with a shuttle? Wont that be very good? It's really cheep
Edit: Nope, the insurance depends on the cost of the ship, i didnt know that, so screw this whole idea. Although the Ship Capture Idea would work i suppose

At times its been common to self destruct a ship for the insurance pay out. Normally done when the insurance pay out is equal to or greater then the cost of the ship. People wait till the insurance is about to expire, strip the ship and self destructed.
It works out as you will need to renew the insurance for the same price and insuring a new ship. So any extra money paid out after buying a new ship is profit.
The insurance company does not keep track of your losses. If they operate on real world principles they would not insure war ships and would have long since gone bust. Macrointel, the place were the nature order of the universe does not hold sway. Pirates and ore thief's are congratulated by carebears for the actions. |

If you can make money its cool. I have frequently self destructed a shipfor the payout when it would be too much work to fly it home.
Its ussually not profitable.
Wherever you went - Here you are.
