Deposits are on hold for the simple reason alone, that the deposit character is gone.
Personally i won't touch my deposits even though they total several billion ISK.
I have confidence in eBank to handle this. |

Real money trade. He sold what he scammed.
I'm amazed at people's ability to do risk/reward analysis. The reward of keeping your money in during troubled times is a few days interest at 3%. At the risk of possiblye total equity loss if you're the one standing once the music stops.
But yeah, faith sustains. Keep the faith.
And in summary, bigger blobs are the answer. Now what was the question? |

He was involved in some form of Real-Money-Trading involving the Isk. That was his motives for taking it. |

Anyone who had read Ricdic's past postings on the Market section would know that he supported and cheered over a previous bank scam, and a lot of us even mentioned it in the Market forum, but the "regulars" all white-knighted him because con men help each other out.
The only safe isk is isk in your own hands. This ain't over. |

Yes, but it does raise a valid question:
Why the heck would anyone deposit into ebank anyway? What the heck is wrong with using a players built in account options?
I have no sympathy.

You know that you don't just store the money there for no reasons right?

You really do live in your own world. Congratulations.
Any way you choose to look at it the "thief" as you say was a huge part of EBank internally. We are not talking about someone OUTSIDE of EBank, so your label of "thief" really doesn't fit now does it? |

Sure it does. Idi Amin, Imelda Marcos, and all those ex-Soviet arms dealers all struck it rich stealing from internal sources. The money wasn't Ricdic's to take. EBank wasn't "donate money to Ricdic Inc.", so I think the label of "thief" applies just fine. |

What is sickening is that all of these EBank alts are posting "thief" and trying to make it sound as though it was someone outside of their establishment. Disgusting!
Like it or not, it was an inside job and a scam on peoples money. A scam is a scam period and Ricdic scammed EBank therefore EBank scammed it's contributors. |

So there I was thinking... where can I put my isk that's safer than my waller?
And I came up with an answer... give it somebody else! That way not only is it safer than my waller, but when I want to buy something, I have to wait 2 days to get at my money, by which time I will have had a reality check and decided that I don't need that item after all.
Unless there was some sort of RL incentive that involved loose women who are prepared to travel, I will never see the point in game banks. Perhaps it's a Role Play thing, some people just itch to be bankers....
Christ... I just depressed myself.

But yeah, faith sustains. Keep the faith.
That just proves how close to a real economy EVE can get in my opinion.
Currency in any form (a few lumps of metal or scraps of paper) has its entire value defined by the faith of the people using it. This is now Zimbabwe can have bank notes worth less than the value of the paper they are made of.
Recession and financial crises are a loss in faith in the value of money when you get down to the most basic level. |

I would like to know where the OP got the 500 bil number.
I have no relationship or financial interest in E-Bank. I've never made a deposit and don't know any of the people involved. I'm just a curious bystander.
From the other threads, the information made available has suggested that total ebank losses are:
200 billion stolen by Ricdic.
275 billion lost as a result of an unsecured loan to an unidentified third party defaulting.
Now the timing and the fact that Ricdic is admitted to have been involved in approving the loan is certainly suspicious. But I haven't yet seen anything with non-circumstantial evidence suggesting that that defaulted loan actually ended up in Ricdic's pockets.
And even if it did, 475 billion is not 500 billion. Precision counts for something when making bold declarative statements. |

What is most amusing is all the other alts claiming foul play and trying to increase any insecurity...
Now who might benefit from something like that.. hmm.. maybe another EVE related bank, I wonder.. :) ___

Hi, I'm the guy who ran away with 200b in the Eve-Bank scam. I'd like to share my new wealth and give some isk to YOU. Please send me a random amount of isk between 10 million and 200 billion and I'll send you back 3 times as much.

...what I find more amusing is that criminal history is full of so many cases of complex and/or multiple-stage cons that start out like this....folks can draw their own conclusions as to what may, or may not, happen next -- seeing as how there is a real life context to this whole issue, RMT.
And y'all only thought it happened in RL. <snort!!!!>
Ain't no "bailouts" here, baby.
