It would have been a perfectly good scam if it wasn't for the incompetent attempting it. |

How many people do you know that want to buy an archon?
How many people do you know that want to buy a CCC rigged archon?
How many people do you know that want to pay 1.8B for a T2 CCC rigged archon?
How many people are currently trying to offload T2 large-rigged archons? |

Only if it succeeded.
For all we know the deal could have been done by now, but I am doubtful given the mistakes made.
I cannot truely say that the OP intended this as a stock dump. It could have been a loan attempt or it could have been some other type of scam. Your guess is as good as mine.
Still, I think it was a mistake to unreasonably inflate the value of the collateral, I think it was a foolish to ask for in-game contact in the way it was asked for, I think it was wrong to post the collateral in the thread given the other mistakes made and it was pretty questionable to fit CCC rigs to the archons in the first place.
Of course, the OP could know better than me and could be laughing all the way to the bank right now. But even still I'd say that he was flying pretty close to the sun on this one. |

In that case, I'm putting my chips on "honest fool". I find it far more plausible that someone would approach you about this honestly than dishonestly, because the level of stupidity required for the latter is so much higher than for the former.

Stupidity may be infinite, just like space, but the amount of space between someone's ears is finite, just like their stupidity. |
