There are dozens of 'scams' in eve, I pity the new player.
One of the oldest is a pirate group that charges you an initiation fee to 'join' once the fee is sent they invite you out to your 'initiation' upon arrival your blown to bits, podded, left naked and crying. "Sucker !"
Corporate spys are a daily occurance. Its really too much to try to cover here. Browse the eve forums. "Crime and Punishment" is always a fun section
