Edited by: Dr Barabas on 13/06/2005 22:12:53 r0x0r is trying to rip people off selling destroyers as if they are Battle Cruisers.
Don't fall for it. I didn't.
Always do info and market details on everything you buy from anyone.

A new player might honestly mistake a Minmatar thrasher for a Minmatar Cyclone, from the front they do look similar, expecially if you've only seen one at a glance.

Hrm, it would seem odd to me if there was a player with enough isk for a BC who couldn't notice the diff. between the two... ___________ WTB: Impel-flying char! Paying well! |

Periculum est emptores perfecta emptione :D, for another dead language one:). I was almost sold an omen instead of an apoc once in station trade. I'm glad I checked the info. But if you're in a hurry and tired it is actually possible to fall for such one I guess. Regards, Sergej

I didn't fall for it either.
20mil for a Ferox seemed too good to be true, and it was, he was trying to sell me a destroyer he had named Ferox. Ah, well, another 7mil and I can get a real one...

Beware of people in Jita trying to sell Frigs and Cruisers as Crows and Ferox's. They have even gone to the trouble of doctoring the pics 'ingame' so they appear in a trade as the real ships.
Tey eve mail you first telling you what they have and then try and rush the trade. As soon as I cottoned onto the scam I made everyone aware in local, unfortunatly some people had been scammed already
This has been reported to CCP as I would class this as an exploit 'Live life as though it is your last..........cause it might be!!!' |

What part of the game mechanics are they exploiting? It sounds like its just a scam, pure and simple.

If your talking about what Gaz said, then i think editing items to look like other things is not allowed.

If that is possible at all, it'd be an exploit. I can't see how that would be possible though...

And highly unlikely its even possible. You sure its not just a similar looking picture and a bit of human error? This would mean they would have to alter the code at your end on your PC. If they can do that then whatelse are they stealing/changing!?!
BTW, I used to sell shuttles for 10million ISK to one of my old enemies, great way to make cheap easy money and mess up the enemy at the same time. I believe the record was 1 trit for 1billion!  The only thing the Gallente should host is an invasion. Backing the Caldari bid. |

You can change pics in your client, but they will only show up changed in your client, not anyone else's.
So no, its nto possible I think. And if it would, it would be a very fast way to a permaban since modifying the client itself is already an offense. _______________________________________________

A guy in Empire called The Officer is trying to sell cormorants as Ferox's. e is an obvious alt though, Been in game a few weeks and his story is that he is having to leave and therefore sell 3 ferox....
Why bother selling if he is leaving? Dumbass
