I just logged in at Atlas Haven and there was your ava in front of me. He ran up face to face when he saw me scan him but he didn't try to initiate chat or trade or anything.

This is what I see.... and it dont match the avatar name everybody else can see. Or even what is reported in my chat log

More screenies for MA should they need it. In fact lots of them taken from opening contact as I knew this was NOT my friend from the very start.

Here's the pictures that I got in Billy Spaceship and 2-3 minutes later in New Oxford





I'll send to Rob more pictures with all the avatar names present in the areas close to the scammer or directly at Mindark if he wants.

If you rename an avatar that avatar still appears to people who are on your friends list as the original name.

A while ago I knew a player who sold thier avatar with MA blessing im told.... the name of the avatar changed at that time but on my fl it is as it was when I knew the owner......

Massive security risk! If XplayerX had sold his account to *player* and then account name was changed by request I would still think that the avatar was the person I know when in fact it isnt that person at all!

MA, lock Esposito account now!!!!
Reverse all trades and fix security issues!!!

...and to all people get a flipping Gold Card!

Further, have some kind of ingame rep to visit if this happens again - I was ahead of this guy but with nowhere to go
They will not reverse trades.

This was when we caught up with him.... surrounded and nowhere to go he shortly logged out and i hope can no longer log back in.

Thanks to my soc mates who helped here and TDO who where there in an instant.... It seems like the guy was trying to trade peds for Euro direct into his bank account.... thankfully the avatar he was trying to deal with doesnt trade with hackers.

I hope this account is now locked and Rob can talk with mindark about obvious shortfalls in security.

1. avatar names should be updated and warned if they change - even a warning if they change ownership.

2. there should be a quick responce MA avatar ingame at all times.... I have documented that I could have got an instant responce if this was reality. I delayed the hacker and went to PA where I had seen "Guides" before - nobody there

3. With such a large amount of peds ingame MA need to take some responcibility, as any large firm legally has to.

4. as soon as an account has over X amount of ped in it a gold card should be auto issued at the same cost as now - include it in the eula!!!!

This situation has shocked me, I feel for you Rob and I have done the best I could mate.... I hope MA can reverse this and get your items back.
