Hi all,
There is this one guy in the game by the name officer ballsacks or something along those lines that are scamming people out of isk. The scam is that he will tell you that he knows of a glitch where he can double your isk. As evidence you can send him a small amount and he will double it. Then when you send him a huge amount he will simply ripp you off. It happened to my son and he lost 1 million isk. Another guy today lost 10 million isk and who knows how many other players have fallen for it. Keep your eyes open for this guy. |

It's like giving some Nigerian scammer your bank info because he tells you of some dead relative you've never heard of, and that they left you a small fortune.

It's actually quite common. Best advice is to not give away your stuff unless you really mean to give it away. You know that African Prince? Yeah, he lives here too.
Additionally, you said the scam involves a 'glitch', which implies that you (your son) were hoping to 'scam' the game, lol

Oldest scam in dust.
Next time someone tells you to send him ISK and he will double it, you should tell him to send you isk and you will return half of it.

You got scammed by a guy named officer ballsacks?.... God if only people would look at names more often... WTF would you give money to a man with that name? crazy AF. Maybe when you gave him the small amount, he just took his own money and doubled it for you? I mean there are some scams that are hard to figure out, but this... wow |
