EVE On the web: Miz Cenuij -- Confidence scammer

Of all the cutthroats and blaggards in the vast universe of New Eden, I have a particular fondness for Miz Cenuij. I recall long nights spent dodging past his smartbombing Nyx in Otou and the games we made of stealing loot from the litter of ship Cheap WOW Gold surrounding it. Before heavy interdictors were introduced, there was no way to actually warp scramble a mothership in low-security space. This left the mothership essentially invulnerable if the pilot knew what he was doing.

Not content to simply own a mothership, Miz used it to perpetrate an incredible series of confidence scams. As motherships were unable to dock at a station, players had to trade them by meeting in space and transferring the ship manually. Miz's Nyx was "Cheap RS Gold" several times, but never actually changed hands. Each time it was sold, the excited buyer was convinced to hand over some or all of the money in advance. Before long, Miz had enough ISK to buy a titan and "sold" it several times too. If there's a way to convince someone to hand over piles of ISK, you can be sure Miz Cenuij has done it a dozen times. He was last seen selling titan blueprints on the forum and causing less of a stir than he used to.
