Scam: A fraudulent business scheme; a swindle.Although we appreciate that EVE offers freedom to all forms of playing style, including those of 'despicable' and 'lowly' kind, we still believe that some form of in-game 'customer-protection' would have a point. Therefore, we introduce you, SCAMwatchÖSCAMwatchÖ is a service that collects information about scammers and their latest scam attempts in order to counteract their profits, so that the legit traders / business people in EVE may gain what they deserve. Moreover, by offering a list of latest scammers, SCAMwatchÖ helps certain local channels (eg. Jita) to become much cleaner, and protects less careful people (aka. new players) from falling into mistakes which may void their existence in EVE universe. You can find more information at www.evescamwatch.com (compatible with in-game browser) Thank you for your contribution to the EVE community...

Scams are easy to spot, nobody needs a scamwatch service, people simply need to read the contract properly.

The kind of people who would use something like scamwatch are the people who would be unlikely to get scammed anyway as they are aware of the scamming in Eve.

Posting to confirm that all the people I scam are brand new players who happen to have 500m+ in their possession.
but in all seriousness @ the OP: Your idea is going to do about as much good as a waterproof towel.
The people with enough presence of mind to check a website about scams are going to have enough presence of mind not to get scammed in the first place, and the sort of people who get scammed generally do so despite multiple warnings from other people about the scammer being a scammer.

Confirming that the OP has been spamming annoying anti-scam messages in Jita for days now. Most likely the alt of a really bored 0.01 isk trader. ===
I wonder if this is a bannable offense... |

We need a spam watch to warn of annoying spammers like the OP.
I hear he has been annoying the stupid contract scam spammers though so that's always good ~_~ (Retired from ship toasting. Now a professional.)

1. The people who would use our service 'may' be those who want to quickly block all of the scammers in order to receive less spam in local.
2. People who are not 'mindful' enough to check our website may always get a second chance.
3. Our services will not be limited to this.
PS: Joe Phoenix obsessions cannot be cured by our service, please seek medical attention as soon as possible.

You need to add you own name to that list of scammers in your corp description.
SCAMwatch is not an officially trademarked product with the USPTO (patent and trademark office) Proof
Thus I feel scammed.
Yes i need a life, Edit: I can't link for ****.

You should have used an alt for scamming previously. I have read all about LSS, and it seems... well, you have lost reputation. But do not leave, there is always a way that you can be converted to a scamwatcher =)

What some people find 'annoying' may save the wallet of new and veteran players alike. Actually scam knows no experience. I hope you realize it sooner than that critical mistake.

Do not worry because we are developing an application that can warn people about scammers wherever they may be located. You are right in that there will be always be players to be scammed and 'fooled'. However, there will be less, hopefully.
On the other hand, it may be 'you' one day, who would fall for a scam. You cannot guarantee it, can you?

Edited by: Slapchop Gonnalovemynuts on 18/05/2010 21:52:54 What a pointless service...
I know you mean well and all, but the kind of person who would go out of his way to keep up with a list of scammers, is the type who is going to recognize a scam 100 miles away, regardless of who the scammer is.
The people who end up getting scammed are either really stupid, uninformed, or inattentive, and those people are going to continue to get hit by scammers regardless of any service one may attempt to provide. In other words, you are trying to sell refrigerators to eskimos.
That being said, I wish you good luck in your endeavor. --------------------------------------------

Ugh yes I have seen you SCAMwatch, so bloody annoying, I think you're worse then the scammers with your spam. You were on my blocklist within 10 minutes along with all the other obvious scammers. I know you're not scamming but annoying wise just as bad.

SCAMwatch is a scam in itself.
It will get you to believe all they say and then they get your ISK.
Do not visit the website with the in-game browser, nor click on any buttons of the web page. --

Regardless of your attempts to provoke distrust against our endeavor, with countless accusations and vilifications, we are here to stay for a long time. On the other hand, you look just as incapacitated as the victims you are trying to scam while trying to stop us. If this is the Darwinian philosophy you assume that backs you up, then you may soon realize that you have already fallen against the fittest.

Ok, I believe you and feel guilty for not believing you in the first place. How can I repay you?

You do not need to copy & paste all of them, just open our corporation description tab to see right clickable links for the most recent scammers.
Plus, you seem to have found an opportunity to advertise your "Legit Trading" solution. Any more ads coming along? Maybe Quafe next time?
