Fortunately i have not yet been cought out by escrow scammers, but i am finding Escrow an absolute pain to go through these days.
I looked at about 30 items i was interested just an hour ago and the majority were either advertised as faction ships or freighters, but when it came to the inspection, they were mere bookmarks.
Some may say this is all part and parcel of the game, but it's getting a tad bit annoying.
Time to rid us of these rip-off merchants me thinks. |

My memory fails me, but does it say who made the escrow on each item?
If thats a case, a name and shame on repeat offenders would be nice. Although you could say they aren't breaking rules, it's ruining it a little for people with geniune escrow and actually making the use of escrow as a public market obselete, cos i for one won't touch it and only use it for trade between corp members. img.photobucket.com/albums/v503/V3g3tto/coolbear.jpg[/IMG]

Escrow will be replaced by a contract system (soonÖ).
I'd be happy if pilots I have on the block list (and their alts) would not be listed. --*=*=*-- Megadon CCP wanted a well known artist and celebrity to test the new font so it's approval would be well known. They got Ray |

i agree, ive never been scammed, i wont be scammed on escrow either, im not that stupid.
it is a complete pain though, because a lot of good items are faked so it wastes a lot of my time, and because of the limted number of escrows displayed, it pushes a lot of legit ones off the list.
there are often times when one person has put up 10 identical scam escrows, its just over the top

For me the problem is not that they're trying to scam but that it pushes the genuine escrows off the visible list makeing escrow much less useful than it should be.
Here's hoping the nice contract system to replace escrow will be released this side of armageddon

It really does suck. And in general I find the escrow system a bit lacking in functionality. I'd really like being able to search (like with assets) through escrows both by content and description.
Can't wait to see what the new system will be like. Unfortunately getting the new system might take a "while"...

I say we make stupidity a bannable offense.
No stupid people = no more scammers.

Scamming isn't the problem.
Spamming is.
Whether its a bunch of "scam" escrows or 200 escrows called "Raven BPC" or 150 "Heavy NOS" escrows... we should be able to block them.
But with escrow being replaced, its not going to happen.

But... that would make me alone in the game?
The sadness.

Escrow scamming wouldn't be so bad if it wasn't for the fact some people make a ****load of ISK off of them.

If multiple people could report a spam and the whole account gets blocked from posting on Escrow then it may work. No trial account should be able to escrow either.

Spamming escrow is not allowed, I have reported people several times for spamming escrow needlessly, and the escrows got removed. I suppose repeat offences would come under harrasment and unfair usage of game mechanics and would result in disiplinary action, and btw Trial accounts cannot escrow.
