Have you seen this man?
sorry to hear that. to prevent that...since i suddenly became rich (in game) i transfer my chars inf, than offer the other person more than im transfering so if he steals it hes getting alot less than he would. or you could do it an easier way and find a nice level 50 like you did or a friend. and gratz to the person who helped you. obviously hes more of a "hero" than the other guy.
We'll be sure to put him in our "Naughty" list for ya. But yeah, we only transfer influence through other SG members who we trust, and we have a "Knight Deposit" which Lady Grae controls. Did you send an application in for the Sisterhood in yet?
Aww, poor LJ I wish I could give you some inf. but I broke

What a jerk!!! 400k really isn't all that much in the grand scheme of things, but it would REALLY burn me up that someone would be such a [censored] [censored].
Good for you for drawing the level 50!!! I think you should do a rendition of the thief burning in the tenth level of hell too.

I have made more in helping some players Transfer large batches of Inf. over the months, than in all the leveling up ever done by my characters in-game. And every single one of those deals, was with characters whom I have never met with before... ever played with in Missions or ever saw again after the exchange.
Each one tipped my character well, even though it was never asked for, and I could never imagine the horror and frustration of 'leaving' the scene before any transaction is fully completed.
Yes, we are out there, and I feel I am not in the minority on this one. The only problem being someone's on the spot 4-minute Mule, is that they have to have a measure of trust. I am happy to say I could do this for them because the game lacks a true Inf. Bank system for non-SG Players.
I only hope others stand tall for what is right, and never, ever let the good Lady and those like her from having to face that cowardly in-game behavior again. What you can't display to anyone about your RL person behind the character you play, speaks volumes in regards to who you *really* are...with but a simple act of kindness.
It is up to all of us.
well that sucks man!!
If I had any higher of a toon on Virtue I'd hook ya up anyways!
If you ever need something in Justice (this goes for anyone) hit me up ingame @Thor's Assassin

PS: If you ever need inf on alts on Justice send a tell to @Jawa-2000 I got 6 million to spare on both heroes and villains.
Thank you everyone for the kind offers, was definitely not asking for free influence, but I truly appreciate it. The first time someone gave me that I got this "I'm gonna cry" moment in my stomach about how cool this game really is...
And since then I make it a point to give out influence whenever I can to whomever I can, as the mood hits me.... it's just good game karma. And yeah Juggertha, I wish I had one, I may have to draw his remains from memory...
Thanks everyone, you guys make up for dorks like that.
Same thing as the above posters have said. You ever need to be hooked up just let some of us Virtue natives know.

I've always been nervous about transfering influence ever since something like that happened to me in EQ1.
Only it was a couple of Ykesa blades and 400 plat (pre any expansion) And it was a guy in my guild. At the time I didn't know he'd only been a member for a week. He quit the guild and stole my stuff :-/
ever since then, I have to practically be sitting in the person's lap IRL to trust them for a transfer, no matter how small.
Terribly sorry you got burned :-(
For future transfers on virtue and no friends around, hit up my global, if I'm around, I'll come runnin to help.
I only took the named Sonic Sparkz with a Z 'cos Sonic Sparks was taken!
well then, give me back my influence!
Sorry to hear about this LJ.
Feel free to contact me if you need a transfer, helping hand or a shoulder to lean on. Global is Valkarye.

i just remembered the best way to transfer inf. give it directly from one of your chars to another...of course this only works with two accounts, people like the guy you mentioned make me glad i have two.
This just came up on my friends account over in WoW. He is lazy and instead of farming for gold he just goes to a site and purchases it from them. I think he spent like $150 irl for 200 gold ingame and apparently he was in the middle of transferring it and a "bot"(don't ask me, this is what he said) interferred the transaction and took all his gold.
Now as far as ingame influence I never have to worry about things like this but if I had just spent $150 irl I think I would ,make sure I trusted the individual I chose to trasfer with.
Again sorry this happened to ya LJ but it looks like you'll never have to worry bout that again!
At least ya didn't lose any RL monies!
*thinks*
what an idiot my friend is!
So tonight I made an alt on Virtue called "Lady-Judgement", a broad sword regen scrapper with hopes of getting into Sisterhood of Paragonian Knights.
After the tutorial, I wanted to transfer some influence, so I asked a 5th lvl player named "Sonic Sparkz" for help. My antenna should have been up when he replied, "transfer what?". Little did I know this was his stupid act hoping to gain my confidence.
When he replied that, I answered back nvm, because I was sort of in a rush. Anyway he tells me to wait, and then says, "Influence? Sure, how much are we talking?".
I said, "400K, and you can have half, the other half for my alt."
So I switch out, and come back, and do the transfer, and come back as LJ, and he's gone. I immediately send him a tell asking where he went, something he probably wasn't expecting, like I wouldn't remember such an easy name, part of the reason I picked him, aduh.
Anyway were in Atlas right by Ms. Liberty and he tells me he's in Argosy Industrial, and I say could you please come back and finish the transfer, he says okay, I said invite me and the map reveals he's no where near Argosy, he's on the opposite end of the map. So for some reason he meets me half way, and I ask him to finish.
And he fades out right in front of me, after asking me to wait.
Now I have disconnected my share of times, and your toon just sits there when that happens, this guy shut down the game to obsconce with my influence! I did wait, in case he actually did dl, but after sending tell after tell, it was true, let the puns begin, Lady Jugdement made a bad judgement in trusting Sonic Sparkz!
So I reported him in game, and I told everyone in Broadcast on Virtue that he's a thief. Right now I am burning up with revenge plots, but I know that gets you nowhere!
Thing is the influence was not such a big deal, I have it to spare in an alt I use just for this purpose. But the fact that he thought he could and infact did get away with it, pisses me off to no end!
I wish I had the forethought to take a screenshot, all I can say is he was average height and build, mostly red, with those Captain America wings on his head, and darn I don't remember his origin or AT. I think he was a mutation scrapper.
Happily a very nice 50th lvl player (the Amphitron) helped me with a new transfer, and I plan on drawing him soon for his kindness.
Well that was my night, thanks for letting me vent.
