If I know a secret about someone or something, can I extort ISK out of players and not get in trouble from CCP?
I have so many secrets, I am busting at the seams. I have one that would probably have 1/4 of the player quit. I spend most of my time in game finding things that no one else would even bother to look for. Secrets about high player spies. Facebook for instance offers users REAL cash $500 I think for finding bugs in their system. I have sent in several serious issues and barely got a thanks. Three were patched quick. I don't need the real cash but would like in games items for wasting my time reporting bugs. Some type of reward. Maybe a good Samaritan dropsuit? If extortion is allowed, please send isk now! You wont be sorry.
Show me the money!

Typically CCP's take on fraud and extortion is that it's ok as long as everything is entirely in-game. Ie: if you've got dirt on someone's dealings in management of a corp that, if released, could cause drama then that would typically be legal. If you were going to spread dirt about someone's real life, that's out of bounds.
If it comes to having evidence of someone using exploits...I'm not sure. |

Extorting players for in-game money by holding in-game actions over their head? Sure.
Extorting players for real money? Extorting players for real-world actions? Extorting CCP? I hope you have a good lawyer.

See, you kind of have it wrong. Extortion only work when the person you're extorting knows the dirt, but no one else has a clue yet.
In your case, you're saying, "I got something you don't know! Gimme 500 mil or I'll tell you what it is!"
In which case the world says, "Um, you kinda sound crazy. And I'm not going to pay 500 million to NOT know something."
Good luck getting the isk, good sir!
ED: Extorting, not bribing.

Once again: this is not extortion works. Your betting on the fact that people will pay money to remain ignorant. They won't.
If you want to do it right: find the person who stands to lose the most from your information becoming public knowledge. Then tell that guy he owes you ISK or you tell the world.
That is how extortion works. Now go be evil properly and do New Eden proud!

So long as it's entirely in-game, it's a free-for-all.
Edit: what you seem to be suggesting is blackmailing the devs for in-game items. I doubt that'll fly.

Not only allowed but encouraged as long as you keep it in-game.
You may not have heard, but it was some shenanigans involving extortion that partly lead to that CCP member being found out as "illegally" supporting Band of Brothers.

LMFAO lol.... you have 0 math skills.... of course i want to make some money out of it. but rwarding players with more then they put in is not a scam.... and check it out if i would have had 30 players buy tickets i would have jacked up the pot. at this point theres only like 9 tickets out which is like a 1/3 chance to win. 9 @ 250,000= 2,250,000 =(what i make)..... the pot total was 3,000,000.....BOOM! to your dome piece.

I don't think you can't sell information about exploits in the game (glitches/hacks/ect).
you can sell corporate secrets however (who is a SPAI, what one corp is planning against another, ect).
