Well... Unlike in EVE, if you scam in real world you are hunted down and if you're lucky enough that police find you before lynching mob does you are sent to the federal pound-me-in-the-ass prison. Show me actual society or non-cult religion which endorses scamming everyone around.
Ancient Spartan kids were taught to steal for dinner. If they didnt steal they wouldn't get to eat, if they got caught they were severely punished |

Good point, I give it to you. However please keep in mind that the name "419 scam" comes from the number of THEIR criminal code describing this activity.

Could be. But I think it's safe to say that there are too many differences between ancient and contemporary societies to take strict guidance from those former.
Anyway, EVE rules permit scams and I don't contest it. I just opposed implied justification that scams are allowed IRL too. |

never buy anything in the trade window if you can help it, if you do make sure the item is repackaged and check the item info to make sure it's what you think you are buying. if the seller "mistakenly" (bait and switch) closes the trade window and reopens it again make sure the item is repackaged and check the info to make sure you know what your buying. |

From my point of view there is no such thing as a margin trading scam.
You really need to be greedy to fall for a "scam" like that.
There are 2 reasons behond greed that would make a margin "scam" work.
- too high drug consumption. - too much alchohol consumption.
Oh and never press the advanced button in the trade window unless you are advanced.
Ccp should block the advanced trade button for at least 60 days for new players. |
