Look,
No need to block me - because I'm not the raging type. So I'm putting it on the forums instead:
I don't care that I "wasn't accepted" (scammed), just next time take my ISK and tell me instead of making me wait.
You learn something new everyday and I learned not to trust the goons.
I hope nobody makes the same mistake I did...

I'm still fairly new to this game and even then, I knew how ISK scamming works and to watch out for those types of "recruitment" ads. So if anything, take this as a crash course in being more secure with your money and avoiding these kind of..things, so yeah..Goons are pretty (in)famous around here and you can find plenty of information on them, how they recruit just by looking on the forums or goggle.
Hope you didn't lose too much.  |

I think the making you wait part is part of the fun for them actually.
If you run into more than 2 a**holes in a day, you should probably look in the mirror. |

I set out yesterday to inform players not to pay pirate ransoms, cause of 1 of my corp members and also on the forums a big fiasco with someone over paying a ransom and still getting the shaft.
Perhaps I should now set out to show the scams you and soo many others have encountered.

Sorry you couldn't get into Goons mate. Perhaps I could interest you in renting some space in Fountain instead? |

Happens all the time. Get some practice and experience, join a legit skilled corp in a while and fight the cfc failfit blobs! Or you can wait a longer while, legitimately get into goonswarm, then just blue attack, that will get you promoted so you can steal stuff too. |

Good luck with that. These handicaps cant be bothered to lookin into the tons of info on the ridiculously famous goon recruitment scam what makes you think they'd look into any other information thrown out for their benefits?
Keep up the good work goons. I dont like or dislike you. Though the idiots that fall your recruitment scam completely deserve it imo. |

Greetings capsuleer,
I would like to wager on that. How much ISK do you have and how much do you intend to make over the next year? Call it double or nothing?
Because like you made this mistake, so have countless others with the same hopes and dreams.
You did not learn from their mistakes. You were doomed to repeat the failures of others before you.
Why would anybody learn from yours?
Regards,

Maybe people will learn. This is a new scam to me, haha.
Screw goons, but good job on screwing me :P It was very convincing, but never again :)
I don't care about the ISK just the scam.

there's a right way and a wrong way to join goon
both are widely known and well documented across the interweb
you discovered the wrong way all on your own
Good job
The American public's reaction to the change was poor and the new cola was a major marketing failure. The subsequent reintroduction of Coke's original formula, re-branded as "Coca-Cola Classic", resulted in a significant gain in sales, leading to speculation that the introduction of the New Coke formula was just a marketing ploy |

Hmm. Lots of "goons scammed me" threads. It's almost as if the goons are posting with alts for more PR! How clever can one group be? |

Is there any chance we can get a Goon to answer with some stats (Lets face it, we love stats)
How many people fall for it?
How much isk do you rake in due to this?
With all these threads around it makes me think that its not tech moons that sustain your empire its stupid people...
Leave tech moons alone, nerf stupid people :)

what you are missing is that blocking you instead of telling you upfront that you got scammed will make most recruits contact to another goon "recruiter" - who then recognizes that the security deposit was insufficient or that the previous recruiter was a scammer and stole the deposit.
Because he doesn't feel good about making you pay twice, because the other recruiter being a scumbag is not really your fault and because he cares about the good name of his alliance the second recruiter might even offers to pay part of the new (higher) deposit out of his own pocket (or offer you a sweet deal that involves paying some head recruiter to look the other way).
Stopping contact without a word gives another goon the chance to pick up the remaining crumbs (and maybe you might be desperate enough to buy a PLEX or two to get into goons, stranger things have happened). |

Greetings capsuleer,
Correct. You are so awesome that you fell for the best documented recruitment scam in the history of video gaming. It is so well documented they even list it on their recruitment page.
I have high hopes for your future in New Eden. An upbeat attitude combined with deep pockets and a lack of research / common sense. It's a brilliant combination for New Eden.
Welcome.
Shian Yang
