I accepted a contract for 5k PLEX at 20b inside a small container, most of my ISK. It was in a Raitaru. I confirmed i could repackage containers before accepting it and then accepted it. The stuff never showed up in my assets. Flying over there i found a Raitaru wreck on my dscan. Goodbye eve. ---

It should of just been as isk and not plex. Submit a ticket to make sure there wasn’t a hold on such plex. Plex is a Real Money trade Isk is a RolePlay Trade. ---

Most Capsuleers feel ashamed about hording too much isk and Frostpacker understands that hoarding isk is unhealthy to New Edens economy so isk must be either reinvested in the Regional Market or Given Away! ---

Sorry to hear that. What did these people say to make '_PLEX in a container sold for less than it is worth in some obscure location’_ seem like a good deal, rather than strange constraints with seemingly no other purpose than some kind of scam? Anyway, hope you stick around! In the end ISK is just ISK. ---

@Sala_Mandra I can’t imagine having 20b isk, let alone lose it to some scammer. Ouch! Once again as always, the adage “When something sounds too good to be true it usually is” never fails. ---

How does someone who’s been in Eve 9 years not know about these scams ? No sensible person transports PLEX or puts it in containers. I never cease to be amazed that people get ganked carrying PLEX, when there is absolutely no need to transport it as one has a PLEX wallet. Likewise I cannot see any non suspicious reason why PLEX would be in a container. The old ’ I have PLEX in a Raitaru I’m about to blow up’ scam has been known about for some time. ---

This is what makes Eve so uniquely magical. You can learn a _real life_ lesson about being duped from this video game. Or you can just quit, I guess. ---

> [@Xeux](#): > > his is what makes Eve so uniquely magical. You can learn a _real life_ lesson about being duped from this video game. Or you can just quit, I guess. Learning lessons entails the implicit acknowledgement of personal failure that needs to be corrected. If you never learn lessons, then you never have to admit that you were wrong about anything, or incompetent with regard to anything. Quitting is the correct choice, because then you’re always right, and only the _other_ people are the bad ones. ---

“Should’ve” is a perfectly valid contraction of “should have”. It’s also phonetically closer to the incorrect form “should of”. Please have an actual correction next time you try to correct someone. ---
