you're still mad about that?
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 |

That's the general logic, it continues to happen because it must have been successful in the past.
Honestly, we are a greedy bunch and it just kills some of us to know its a scam but wonder if this happens to be true! The payoff could be huge!

You know what an answer is? It's a terminus -- an end. Answers are fine, but questions are where it's at. Questions bring us closer to understanding, -áthey can start a conversation or spark a revolution. So you might as well start asking... now.-á ~See you on the other side 6/6/12~ |

I love those things, I make more from those "scams" than I do from missions.

You underestimate the power of greed and overestimate the capacity for reason of the average person.
Having indulged in such Market PVP on occasion, I can say the volume is not that great. You better off camping in null in a pet alliance than trying to run this for a living. Still, plenty of customers. Eve forums official anthem:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pudOFG5X6uA |

This is how the scam is supposed to work:
correct rules: 1. there is no limit on the number of times you can play. 2. there is no minimum amount of isk that you may send - I will double/triple any amount.
procedure: 1. someone sends me 10 isk; I send the multiplied amount back 2. that same person sends me 10mil isk 3. the end.
I make the initial broadcast in local, then regularly acknowledge in local that I've sent someone his money - whether this has happened or not. It is possible for you to make money off of me, and obviously for me to make money off of you. The best victims of this scam are those who plan to beat me at it.
These "ONLY ONCE", "MINIMUM AMOUNT" scams are degenerate forms of the true scam, plied by people who don't have the capital for the proper form of the scam, or who never understood how the scam was supposed to work, or who are thinking "if people try it must work!" and are otherwise brainlessly imitating some earlier broke/confused fellow. These scams probably mostly work on people who mistake them for the proper scam, and send 10mil or whatever expecting a second and possibly third round of the game. |

It's pathetic that people have to scam for ISK, I like to play the game legit because I like to have fun on games, not going around scamming people because it is just sad.
People who do scam should be IP banned from this game straight away & CCP needs to be more strict so that way people will think twice before scamming, if not then get banned.
What is the point in scamming people, scamming is not how to play a game, playing legit getting skills up & going to pvp is playing the game, I have no respect for scammers they are a waste of time and no one loves them.
(IF SOMEBODIES OFFER IS TOO GOOD TO BE TRUE THEN IT PROBABLY IS SO DONT RICK IT FOR A BISCUIT)
