Haha reminds me of a discussion board I was on for a class recently where two people got in a fight but were both posting under "Anonymous" so things got hilariously confusing.

Hello guys, I am a wealthy millionaire with a passion to help grow esports! I am looking to put together a SC2 division. I have already got teams in multiple games such as LoL, World of Tanks, Dota 2, BW, Civ 5, Skyrim, Minecraft, and Chess Online. I am offering a starting salary of $11,000 per month but there are tryouts to get on the team. You must be at least low GM to tryout and tryouts last for 11 months. After the 11 months I plan on putting together a team house for you guys that will most likely be located in the Bahamas (I own several islands in the area so there may be multiple gaming houses if the players want there privacy). I will also be sending out gaming equipment to the players such as the new upcoming Steel series keyboard the 8G gaming keyboard. I have access to such equipment (3 years before the expected release) because I am actually the CEO of Steel series. Please message me for more details if you want to tryout for my new super awesome team!

p.s. the team name is Team Panda Attack Squad

GOOD LUCK HAVE FUN EVERYONE

Thank you for supporting ESPORTS!

Scams usually involve some amount of money being lost to the scammer, or at least the scammer even attempting to get the money out of the person being scammed.

I'm honestly not sure if he thought he would make money off the team or if he was just really wanting to play the role of a huge troll. I've thought about that a lot and for a while now.

Identity thief, he can take our identity if he has enough information about us. when we just started all this, he asked me to invite nanocloud into the clan, at the moment I tried but failed to invite him for some weird error. Everybody else that he asked, I invited into the clan without any problem but nanocloud. So i thought my connection was bugged out. He then asked me to log on my account and try to invite nanocloud himself. I complied. and allowed him on my account. After this instance, I came to the realization that there was two different accounts name nanocloud, but only after one of his nanocloud acquired Grandmaster and have a golden shine. At that point I told myself that Nanocloud is definitely working with anderson trying to scam my b.net account to mine my person information from blizzard's website. So I set up a trap, I left my password unchanged and removed my b.net authenicator and waited for my account to get hack, just so that I can confirm Anderson and Nanocloud was in it together, but nothing happened. But i still wasn't sure until Nanocloud did a skype call together with all the players with Quantic.MaSsan. Nanocloud was begging massan to accept them into quantic academy but was denied over and over and Massan told nanocloud to stay in smi and try to scam major into the smi and leave with major as a group so that the players doesn't take any hit in reputation. Now you guys might ask how could this seemingly unrelated instance allowed me to be sure that nanocloud isn't working with Anderson? for one if he was in it with anderson he wouldn't try to leave the team with all these players, two by asking massan this he clearly shown how naive he was and there is no way he could come up with a elaborate scam with Anderson and correlate the timing of switching accounts after I friend add one of his nanocloud account and then log on to the other nanocloud account when i try to invite the first one to clan.


This is cringeworthy. How old are you people? We don't care about your stupid drama, nothing actually happened, you didn't lose any money. You all seem stupid and amateurish and I don't know why you think this has to be brought to everyone's attention.

because people loves drama, and I am here to deliver.

So afaik, nobody lost anything but time. Boo hoo. :-|

On a related note, how does contract law apply to the internet? For example, contracts done on skype internationally fall under which country's legal system? Do all go under the US because Skype is a US company?

The rabbit hole has been opened.

Not true, nanocloud lost his account boosting money


Well do we actually think boosting accounts for money is a good thing anyway? Do we want people in gm that paid to get there? I couldn't care less about such a thing.

This might have been the worst scam ever.. or simply someone going for the longest troll in history.
