Oman should have his own sticky/thread that only he can post to.

Just the facts and no comments on them.

All these pages of crap could then be ignored without fear of missing something worth reading👍

It's like, I kinda don't like muggers. I'm very OCD about "give them nothing" as Leonidas would say.

I run my property upkeep into arrears so I can quickly dump earnings so no one can pinch ANY of my hard-earned.

I play on the android app and it's ok. Other than it gets a bit laggy when you have chat open. 

That aside, I browsed the marketplace for someone newer and with less drugs taken than me. Took a few minutes to find what I wanted but not that long.

This person was selling something that has a bit of turnover and was 6 million ish.

So I opened a new tab (app really doesn't like this) but I'm a rebel so did it anyway. Clicked on attack and returned to watch the listing.

About 3 minutes later it vanished. So I quickly went back to the attack tab and  smashed into the target with my stealthy melee weapon.

Took a couple of seconds but suddenly I was 300K or so richer. Easy money AND stealthed so no blowback.

Question is, what kind of mugger does that make me and should I feel bad?

 I SHOULD know how I feel but really don't. And that's a new feeling to me.

Props to Shooby for explaining it so well in here the other day🤗 

Maybe I can blame him?

Yeah, I know it's kinda of minor but I thought I should have got an extra merit for the no OD part 😇

Ok I've been offered one of these by another player who shall remain nameless for 10 million a month.

Apparently, I can carry a whole 12 extra items per trip.

Just putting it out there as I'm feeling others might be tempted into parting with their hard earned.

Unless of course it's a "real thing?"

Ok guys, 

How accurate is this thing? I appear to be getting mugged often.

If I wasn't online actively trying to AVOID being mugged I'd accept it as my own ineptitude.

Last time it happened I queried with staff and was told l was mugged 18 seconds after landing.

Now when I'm online and this is happening I'm really not seeing this 18 seconds. 

Possibly 3 seconds from the timer hitting zero to the loading of the landed/hospital page.

Which, to my mind STILL gives me an age to do what I need to do and get back on a plane.

So I figured I'd ask the experts what they thought?

Even Ana couldn't save this noob👍

For a scammer the Cocofelon guy seems pretty nice.

I wouldn't buy his "cheap Xanax" though. Although if you're really new around here,  there's substantial profit margin in this.

Would I do it, no. 

Some people would though and does that make them bad in a crime game?

Colour me undecided.

I don't use any scripts and I fly quite a lot.

I've stumbled across the right conditions five times.

Haven't got it but I'm sure I will eventually.

Catfish. Catch yourself a sugar daddy.

Lazy but extremely effective.

Don't forget to tell your director so he can fire your ass rather than hang on hoping you'll come back.

You owe it to him and your co-workers 👍

Call me a cynic but searching the dump is probably more profitable than flying these days.

We got a chain on and I'll probably buy a basket for that.

I only chain inactives because it's less drama.

Added bonus is they're inevitably out of ammo so I don't get to use many meds👍

I don't have a Halloween list as I'm not participating.

Hopefully I'll be left alone which is how I like it.

Oh I agree, but the irony here is those susceptible to scams are (in general) noobs like me that are not paying attention👍

Potentially not only getting scammed but attracting the ire of D3vl.

A double whammy of bad news.

It might only be a spoof, but the kind of people who the guy scams could easily mistake D3vl for D3v1.

D3vl IS in danger of being labelled a "scammer" through confusion over the similarities between the names.

He strikes ma as a non scamming proud man.

Scamming accusations will upset him and I suspect that's the real intention here.

From my limited experience of International Travel Day the challenge is going to be dodging muggers whilst finding stock of anything remotely profitable upon landing. 

I'm on mobile and don't use any scripts as my browser doesn't support them.

I suppose I could change browser, but it's too much hassle.

So I just pay the 5%. To be fair to you older guys it's probably more of an issue as you're used to not having it.

There is a plus side, ya know.

With all those bounties you're free to carry plenty of cash as no one's likely to mug rather than hospitalise.

Three things:

Global bad.

Forum bad 

Talking to anyone's probably bad.

A can of Munster and one of those SED things.

Sharing someone's tinder profile on Discord?

Classy.

I'm interested in what happens. 

Just not interested enough to wade through pages of crap to find out.

I suspect that I'm not the only one👍

Everyone said get to level 15 and you'll make money flying. 

Not without renting a PI or joining a faction with extra travel capacity AND buying a large suitcase. Plus making sure you're online for every landing

My last train cost me near 40 million. I'm 100 odd days old and I forsee a blue name before I'm a year old.

And, for my level, I'll still be nothing special. 

Everyone keeps banging on about RW income. If you've got no stats, how you going to make any money? You're just going to be cannon fodder/filler for others, IMO.

Yeah, I guess it's possible to make money flying. Live in a mansion, don't take drugs or spend anything on training.

Four or five years like that, level holding you'll probably be of some use!

I guess it's all a compromise. Stats or money. Can't have both without spending.

Hope you guys are all having a wonderful day👍

I think they look great. 

Mind you, I wear UGG boots, so my taste is probably not for everyone.

No internet. Probably blissfully unaware of unfolding events👍
