Hi,
sorry if this is well known - I am very new to the crime scene.
I just got scammed with my bank corp for 90 mil - not a lot but anyway.
The character was an alt, but he also revealed another of his characters to me - this one seems more genuine. In order to get some amount of revenge, I just added an amount to the bounty on this guy.
Now I am thinking that he will just cash in the bounty himself and live happily on. I am not sure under what circumstances a bounty is an efficient tool - could someone please enlighten me. For instance, I can only presume that this character has valuable implants, but cant be sure.

Aaaah - another thing that puzzles me about this alt is that on his blog he says that this is his "wardeccing" alt and he is working on lowering the character's security status. Lowering? Why would you want that?
Again, I am presuming that since he is using this character for corp war declarations it must have some value to him - is that reasonable?

Thanks for the replies sofar - now I am confused on a higher level lol.
Well, if you can just pod yourself, why dont the pilots that have 1 billion isk bounties on them just do it all the time? Because they have 1.5 billion isk implants?

I am not a troll, so must be a moron. As I said clearly this whole bounty business is completely new to me.
My question still is: if my target can just collect the bounty himself, by podding himself, as was also suggested by another poster above, then are all the people that do put out bounties of billions of isk all complete morons?

Yes yes yes! I hear you all, and thanks for all the answers. The consensus is clear.
As I half suspected, putting out a bounty is just throwing more good isk after bad.
