Got scammed 2 days in a row and it feels like ****. Yesterday I got scammed out of 25 mil and today I got scammed out of 30 mil. Now I know it is my fault but still I thought I should make a thread about it.
Players names were jehuty10 (and he was from 0uter.Heaven) and the other is abudlah muzaffar (I am assuming this one was a scam alt someone made) but man does it feel like crap getting scammed.

There was a comic I read ages ago with a character named Buwaro who was a purple demon thing, and I commented that you should run Quafe suits since they're purple. But then I realized Buwaro may exist as a name outside that comic, googled it up, and lo and behold, it wasn't the same character. Look at my PSN ID
I did took the name from him. Well the first one. Draemon is something I made up.

Thing is, before I got scammed, I went and checked his player info and it had another corp name (can't remember it sadly) after I got scammed I went and looked abdulah muzaffar on search and the only one that popped up was the Random Gunz one so that's why I assumed it was a scam alt by another person.

Certainly looks like it. Seems dragging people's names through the mud and getting paid for it is quickly becoming popular. Yeah, even i fell victim to that :( abudlah was a typo.
His name is just like abdullah's but with only one L.

I'm looking at our member list now. I have no idea why he's on Dustboard but not in our members list. Which was weird for me. I saw the 0uter.Heaven corp tag. Maybe an impersonator corp too? Anyways not blaming you guys.

Two days in a row?! bro wtf ? After you were scammed the first time did you not reflect and do some research on reliable traders? At first glance I felt bad for you but c'mon two days in a row? It's actually a kind of hard to believe. It's like getting the sh!t beat outta you in a dark ally and the very next night walking the same damn ally, sorry you lost that doe tho, that sucks. Yeah I know it does seem kinda hard to believe but then again, if you knew me IRL you would know that bad luck is technically my middle name and after getting scammed twice in a row, I will now use a middleman for all my trading affairs UNLESS you are proven 100% safe.

I'm looking at our member list now. I have no idea why he's on Dustboard but not in our members list. Looks like he was created and then immediately joined the corp. How up to date does Dustboard stay? Could they have joined the corp, used its big name to scam people into thinking they were trustworthy, and then left? Actually it looks like the second youngest character to join the corp is you, Dreis, so it couldn't have just been some asshat joining up in a throng of invites. That had to have been someone with recruiting permissions. With that said.
Maybe, just maybe one your recruiters (or anyone with recruiting permissions) is taking advantage of 0.H's name and using it to scam people so 0.H will need to round up and look for the scammer.
Now, why he does not appear in the ingame member list is a mystery. Maybe Dustboard does not update corp in for daily? Maybe he he got accepted into 0.H, scammed me (probably a few other players as well) then left the corp to not appear suspicious.
All is speculation of course.

Actually it looks like the second youngest character to join the corp is you, Dreis, so it couldn't have just been some asshat joining up in a throng of invites. That had to have been someone with recruiting permissions. As far as I'm aware, by 'youngest', Dustboard means the age of the character themselves, rather than by the date that they joined the corp. This must be true, since quite a few people have joined 0.H after me. I am quite a young character though, and that's probably what it means. I've also never seen him online. I just searched his name in-game: 'NO SEARCH RESULT FOUND'. You should probably screenshot the Dustboard info of jehuty10 and guide tell some of the leading members about it.
does 0.H accept applications from everyone? If so, it may have been a random player.
But if they don't, someone with recruiting permission most have made that alt, placed themselves in 0.H and scammed then left and probably and most likely biomassed.

Using third party (eg. spero escrow) should work. Though it's more job to do.
Both because I had forgotten the name of Dustboard's page and I am just plain unlucky.

Holy **** Abdulah guy, I almost made a trade with him for a legacy skin for 30 mill. I backed out of the trade, because I aada funny feeling. Now I'm glad I did. He scammed for 30 mil for a Roden Skin.

Boot Booter wrote:Yeah I was scammed yesterday too with regard to a skin trade. It's just annoying. The game is already dead enough without douche bags creating alts with similar names as well known players just to scam people. This is why ccp wanted to do a high loyalty rank to allow trades.
Ccp should just have a proper trade system where both players can see the trade items before accepting. This scouts honor **** is stressful for no reason. I mean I understand some level of scamming to happen but it's out of control already.
Wtf is the point of scamming in this game. Anyone worth a damn can already spam proto suits as much as they please. **** it I'll just stop playing, not because I'm upset, but because people are pathetic losers, competition is gone, and I get scammed when all I wanted to do was make my commando look cooler lol. I am starting to notice more and more perma-hardened madrugars v.0 on almost all battles now too...
But yeah, this game is still very much on life support and scammers and identity thieves are helping pull the cables out. Like all those scams in vain when (if) this game dies
