Originally by: Bad Bobby gaps in the procedures and these grey areas where responsibilities were not clearly defined were exactly what I counted upon for the success of my scam.
It's interesting to see you obviously put some writing effort into "taking the blame alone".
It should be taken for granted that a scammers word can't be trusted, so how if I'd interpret your effort as whitewashing attempt in respect towards another trustee possibly involved in scamming, maybe being an alt of yours?
If in fact another trustee would be an alt of yours, deniability might be an issue. A scammer in love with scamming would not like to give up his precious alts he gained trust with elsewhere. It just would not make sense businesswise, not even for a scammer who landed some big coup. You would reuse them by having them participate in more scams of yours, to create some false sense of security on victim side.
So grey areas would in fact not only provide you with opportunity to scam, but possibly even _grant_ you the opportunity to scam plus some deniability functionality on top, right?!!
That was quite a "slippery" answer on that "How did you get the 200 shares from a trustee?" question in here: http://www.eveonline.com/ingameboard.asp?a=topic&threadID=1106485&page=69#2046
You could have chosen to reply nothing. Instead you asked: "Are you sure you want the full details?" For sure we want the full details! And I'm pretty convinced if Vaseline was involved, you were using it on your own only -- as asking that "where did you get the shares from" obviously hit a spot.

Furthermore, I receive this as an attempt to rhetorically downplay that digging deeper in regards to trustee involvement in fact would reveal some knowledge you do not want to have disclosed... if you're tight enough on intel to plan this scam months ahead, than you probably would be capable of being tight enough on intel not to give out who is not involved. What reason do you have to give out intel other than to deceive, which you obviously enjoy in the first case?
So I may assume you're enjoying playing a game. Don't we all?
Originally by: Bad Bobby I expect to be pleasantly suprised by how many you get... I'd also be interested to see how many get incorrectly labelled as a "BB alt".
Is what you answered on "What are all of Bad Bobby's other mains and alts?". 'Pleasantly surprised' as in "There's at least another halfway intelligent being who's playing EVE"? The good old "criminal leaves hints because he's convinced police is too stupid to track him down despite the hints"?!! Getting richer ISK-wise doesn't give you any thrill at all anymore since quite some long time ago, am I right? And you once again play that psychological card of "You'll probably fail, finding some wrong positives along the way" to lure people into believing they'll have no luck. You're in a way making fun of all the ones trying.. and asking to get your alts hunted down at the same time!

Of course you can confirm that you are a Ji alt :)
We all are!
Wait, Ji scammed himself
Ji scammed himself? THAT CAN NOT BE POSSIBLE, HE LOST BILLIONS!
The funny thing is: Sometimes it might be WORTH investing billions in a scam, too. Especially if you'd kind of know in advance you'll fully recover it by successfully scamming...
And once your wallet is big enough you can spend some billion ISK here or there to a) provide PLEX to plenty of alts b) have alts create new low ISK volume bonds and stuff with interest happily paid for in return of new character bound trust.... until payday.
So what would I do with billions of scammed ISK? Maybe go buy some PLEX to pay for some more alts? Maybe to spread some rumor about someone trying to manipulate PLEX market, to in fact manipulate the PLEX market by means of that rumor? Or just do some more investment stuff right away?
