    $4.7 Billion for $3300? So that's about $.70c per mill? If the guy selling was any good at math, or bothered to check, he would have known this was't going down as planned. Even online, this would have still smelled fishy talkless for real life

    I believe this was more than a year ago and at that time it was worth 70 cents a mill.

    I remember 100m being 65 slightly more so that's .65 prices were high not so long ago.

    I can just imagine his jail conversations:

    Hardened Criminal: "What you in for?"
    Bajwa: "Robbery of RuneScape coins."
    Hardened Criminal: "You got a pretty mouth boy..."

    I hope it was worth 15 years in jail.

    Reminds me of the one where a kid stabbed, maybe even killed, another kid for stealing one of his swords on WoW.

    @ JJ's right on the price, or close to it. It was done through craigslist so the price was inflated. It happened to a mod on Sythe. I remember hearing all of the details when it happened. I thought they ended up catching the guy & pressing charges and a bunch of other things.. Was really a big deal from when it happened.

    Yea this is a very old article, I think that its even older than what its post date says it is. I remember reading about this more than 2 years ago.
