Hi
I thought id share this so ud know that the staff of Somir blink scam there own people who play on there site.
So i won 2 x raptor and 1 x crusader
So i went to my contracts as im a ship horder and started accepting the contracts. I wasnt paying attention and yes this is my fault, suddenly i was down 1 billion ISK. Because a raptor had been contracted PRIVATLEY to ME from Somir Blink, Not SOMER blink.
How could anyone in that corp have contracted a ship that fast to me? How could they have known i even won that ship considering how fast SOMER launchers the next lottery. Dont belive me?
Here's proof
1 Shot 2nd Shot
And this is them trying AGAIN to scam less than 2 minutes later
Third Shot
I have always trusted somer blink, it seems a new member of staff has seen a way to make billions.
It was my fault for accepting the contract but as i knew they would be from somer, i had no reason to suspect them. Seems SOMER is above scamming people either. I wont be playing again, |

First off, who are somber blink? Secondly, what does somir blink have to do with somer blink? Tertiary, what kind of lottery were you parttaking in, that wasn't publicly broadcasted on a webpage for anyone to see?

Looks like someone has set up shop watching lottery winners and is setting up contracts for those ships and hope the contractee doesn't look closely enough before hitting accept.

P.iss easy to do, watch somer blink website, see who wins what, have an alt similarly named to SOMER Blink, put lots of isk on the contract ship they are expecting.... wait for noob to accept because he cant read.
see. easy.
Dont even have to work for SOMER Blink to be able to see who won what on their website. Kudos to the guy who scammed you, thinking outside the box! |

There's only one stupid in this thread and it's not him. Anyone coming to the somer blink site sees exactly when and what you win. I'm pretty damn sure there are more than one person attempting to scam this way, the reason you don't hear much about it is that most people don't fall for such a stupid trick, like you did. Seriously, you would fall for the Caldri Navy Assembly Plant scam if it were going on. |

That's a pretty tinfoily theory indeed. I like it.

TL:DR
An enterprising individual is scanning the list of winners on BLINK and contracting them the ships they won for large amounts of ISK. I fell for this and now I am mad. |

I am waiting until the OP realises that is winnings are posted online and a smart scammer would post that contract as soon as he saw a name of someone pop up as winner.

So let me get this straight. You won a blink. You rushed to your contracts. You pulled up the item and accepted it. And were scammed.
Ok, lets analyze this. Sounds like you accepted a contract from a person from whom you expected to see with a raptor you expected to get. Did you happen to scrutinize the person's name and the contract before accepting it. Or did you rush in like an Pavlovian 10yo on Christmas day tearing open his presents only to find out that Santa doesn't really exist?
The tears must have been epic. Would pay isk to see the expression on your face. We want breast augmentations and sluttier clothing in the NeX! |

@OP
I recommend using an alt slot and creating your own personal corporation to store excess ISK.
Its much safer than keeping all your ISK on your main character. I personally never leave more than 600-700m ISK on an active wallet account exactly for that reason. CEO-á Monocle Madness ~ Mega-Insane Lotteries for the Mentally Unstable http://www.monoclemadness.com |

Seems Mr GM disagrees with you, but you are free to do it until the ban hammer pushes your teeth down your throat, then don't come back crying on forums about how unfair it is.

Another award winning thread by you. And the contortionist act was great, especially how you ended it with that foot in your mouth. Do you smell what the Lock's cooking? |

Okay, what if I call my alt Sombrero Bink. Where do we draw the line between what's impersonating, and what's simply a name that looks similar? Chariba, Chrabbi, Charubi. These people are not allowed to try to scam people out of their cap ships because of their names? |

This is what you should have done in the first place, but I'm quite sure it's already reported by Blink owners, never post thins kind of stuff before you contact GM about it and see what's the heck about. Your tear harvesting after GM bans the guy compensates thousands times whatever isk you lost (and you're going to recovers after guy's ban anyway)
You just learned a lesson the hard way and actually no one trolled you because trolling is against forum rules, but they certainly mocked you (notice the difference)
Don't take it too personal, it's a game

You can make a guy named Chriba, or Chribba., or Chribbo if you want. Its when you tell people you're Chribba and will happily provide a secure third party service that gets you banned. The Sandbox, you're playing it wrong! |

Indeed. The scammer in this case did no such thing. He simply made a contract. |

Many of us have similar names but that does not mean we are impersonating our namely counterparts. He never said he was this website, he only made a contract. And whats the first rule of accepting contracts? Read them!

Or i could create one called The Mitttani and make trillions. His production manager probably gets many contracts everyday so if i put up 1contracts with that name, its very likelly to get it. CCP did this in the past before here BOB before created CCCP and then were told to close it by CCP much for the same reasons
No I don't know. No you can't, check the EULA. Yes you can make a similar name and make trillions as long as you don't claim you are the Mittani himself, though you not being in GSF should be a dead giveaway. Go ahead, type in the name and see how many hits you get. I'll wait. My personal favorite are the Captain Kirk's. Do you smell what the Lock's cooking? |

So yeah its a ban. ban ban ban ban ban XD It's not what you know, it's what you can prove. Intent. And no, CCP doesn't have to "prove" anything. Suspicion is enough to get you banned. They reserve the right to ban you at ANY time without proof of anything (read the EULA). It doesn't mean they will. It just means don't play stupid with them because they have the ace in the hole... ALWAYS. This isn't the supreme court. And claiming that you just happened to have named a character with a similar name of someone who does lotteries and you just happened to make a contract for this other someone's lottery winner at an exorbitantly high price, claiming they have to prove it's an impersonation-scam first, is playing stupid.
So again, suspicion of intent is enough to get you banned. |

It may or may not be very clear what ccp will do, that is between them and the 2 parties. But like I said, it's not what you know, its what you can prove. By the way, you may want to contact them and tell them about a shady character named somer bling, he's obviously up to no good with that name. Do you smell what the Lock's cooking? |
