I have discovered a very effective tactic for dealing with scammers. . . .every time they spam one of their bogus contracts in local, simple paste 30-50 lines of single characters! * * * * etc. . .
This will not only remove the offending contract from view on the public channel, but is highly frustrating to the would be scammer as it prevents his potenial victims from even seeing his bait!
Based on the response I have recieved after only a few minutes of trying this tactic in Jita I can say two things:
1) CCP will never put a stop to scamming because I believe the majority of the scam artist are CCP-alts
2) These tactics work incredibly well when you can get two or even three people working in concert
Rise up citizen! Strike back at the people who are ruining this game! Fight them with every means at your disposal!

What always ****es me off is when someone is spamming / scamming a channel and then the retards on the channel start posting "OMG SCAMMER", "xxxxis a scammer" etc. And some people even find it useful to post what you mention, lines and lines of nothing which result in other peoples chat dissapearing before others can read it.
Spammers / scammers = Fail
Spammers pretending to be anti-spam / scam = ****ing thick ****s

wish to know a great way to avoid scams? It has a few steps try to follow me.
Step 1: never buy from local even if it is a legit contract. Why? let me show you step 2
Step 2: check contracts on an item this will let you know what possible competitors are selling the same item for. (but omg it's so disorganized I still have to filter through the scams!!!!) let me show you step 3
Step 3: organize the contracts by price. This will make the WTB contracts laughably obviouse, and exploitive WTS contracts on the last page, leaving you with the legitimate contracts just past the WTB contracts offering 1,234,234 for a 1.2 billion item.
Follow those simpe steps and never be scammed again, though I know you wont because you are an idiot.

TBH there is only one thing in this game that gets me angry and its people that post white space in to a channel to clear out the spammers.. These are also the only people I have ever blocked, and I used to live in jita.

The League of Legitimate Nigerian Businessmen condem these spam tactics and we refute any and all accusations of CCP involvment in our investment group, these are false rumours which have been refuted numerous times by official CCP personell and no charges of either false book keeping or controlling interests in CCP and [NOSCM] at the same time have ever been proven.
Any and all permanent bans lifted from [NOSM] board members were lifted after due process and due to lack of evidence, our competition has a history of trying to smear our good name and I dare say our innocence is beyond question at this point in time.

Actually if you don't block any of them, the problem works itself out nicely. The contracts appear and disappear faster than you can even think to click on them and find them interesting, and therefore local returns to being nothing but a silly intel channel.

petition me all you want. . . just make sure you spell my name correctly.
Here are the facts folks. . .people who get scammed tend to quit the game. Thats less money for CCP, fewer players for our game and and a poorer playing enviroment for all concerned.
Taking this phenomena to it's highly illogical conclusion would see our universe populated by only the handful of asshat scammers trying their lame tricks on each other, as all the 'REAL' Players leave for whatever the new big MMORPG is.
I dare CCP to stop me! I may spam in local channel, and thats annoying. . .but some of these scam artists are making four or five posts for every one of mine! Ban me, Gag me, kick me out of the game. . .but if you get me, then you MUST get them too!
During this afternoons session of messing with the scammers in Jita, there were no less than four other people posting anti-scam spam. . .for at least one hour no-one got scammed in Jita.
I'd take a ban for that.

lol... people who get scammed tend to learn from their mistakes and not do it again.
Scams go from 100mill-2bill in dixie, (most) new people don't have that money.
Part of that money goes to fund plex cards, so either way CCP gets paid. Hence, they don't care.
break the rules though, i'll enjoy seeing whiners muted/booted. === This Space For Lease or Sale. |

What the ...?
Well, that's taking tinfoil hattery to a new level.
"We're going to structure the rules so that we can cheat players of ISK and (by your theory) ourselves of revenue by running scams! It's completely legal within the terms of our game-- and it's legal because WE want to do it more than any of our customers do!
"It has nothing whatever to do with our design philosophy or setting; we just like being mean, so we're going to get you to pay us RL money for your subscription and then trick you out of in-game money so you quit!
"This is the greatest business plan EVER!"
Not freaking likely.
Many of us, myself included, got involved in this game because we liked the cutthroat environment. We didn't come here expecting rose gardens and chocolates, and certainly nothing so pedestrian as fair play; we came here after hearing stories of bank scams, corporate spies, and the Guiding Hand Social Club.
Even if we don't engage in these activities (I've never had the heart), we're here because we want an environment of tense competition, chaos, and paranoia. We didn't come here to play WoW in space; we came here because Eve is freaking unique. We wanted a loosely-controlled universe where cunning and insight are rewarded, and that's what Eve delivers.
If you can't deal with that, and with the fact that some people get a vast kick and a good cash flow out of making fools of other players, I'm afraid I have to say, "GB2WoW."

Edited by: Michael Hoare on 12/05/2009 01:05:14 Actually. . .CCP Scammer-alts do make a lot of sense in a perverse and twisted fashion.
You see, CCP is unable to do anything about chinese slave-labor being used to manufacture and sell ISK in their game. . .they simply do not have the resources to fight the ISK-Sellers. . .
So they allow scammers. . .
As people have so clearly and repeatedly pointed out, only idiots get scammed. . .i.e. only new players with lots of money get scammed. . e.g. only ISK-Buyers get scammed. . .
So perhaps CCP allows scamming as a back-door inflation control.
Does not matter to me, I hate thieves and s****of all stripes. So whether CCP merely allows scamming or tacitly approves of it matters nothing to me, I will fight!
(what the hell is S****? I typed scum. . . four letters meaning 'fungus')

Wow Michael, you have it all figured out ... CCP creates an online game and charges monthly for it - but wait .... they don't just want your real-life $15 (usd) a month, NO .... they want all your iskies too, and they're going to scam it out of you by creating scam-alts!!!
But what's this ..... it's a vigilante come to save us from the evils that is CCP!!!
It's Super Hoare! \/ Yay!!! Thank you for your endless spamming of doom in Jita-local, and creating even more lag than is absolutely necessary, but it's all in the name of justice!! So thank you, oh purveyor of unwanted spam!!!

OP fails to understand that most of the non-stop posting scammers are macros and will not be annoyed or deterred while you waste your time hitting the * key.

all that stupid pasting does is make it harder for me to block the spammers.
So, I block dumbasses like you that spam that crap as well.

Here are the facts folks. . .people who get scammed tend to quit the game. Thats less money for CCP, fewer players for our game and and a poorer playing enviroment for all concerned.
Taking this phenomena to it's highly illogical conclusion would see our universe populated by only the handful of asshat scammers trying their lame tricks on each other, as all the 'REAL' Players leave for whatever the new big MMORPG is.
I dare CCP to stop me! I may spam in local channel, and thats annoying. . .but some of these scam artists are making four or five posts for every one of mine! Ban me, Gag me, kick me out of the game. . .but if you get me, then you MUST get them too!
During this afternoons session of messing with the scammers in Jita, there were no less than four other people posting anti-scam spam. . .for at least one hour no-one got scammed in Jita.
I'd take a ban for that.

Confirming you're an idiot a f***ing idiot too stupid to live dumber than a rock.
