I lost my Proteus not so long ago, the technique that was used was bait. Not your obvious bait, but ship changing bait.
The trick is, someone drops into your hole and scans it down. Then they come back with another toon and scan it... or what appears to be a person scanning. The reality is, they have it scanned and are making an appearance.
Next, someone brings in a ship, someone leaves in a ship. They try and time it, so the hole-fire is near instantaneous. This toon flies to a known hole ( k162, etc ), loiters and jumps in and out, polarizing themselves. They then fly back out the original hole. Do this a few times gives the appearance of someone scouting, or moving ships... looking like a target.
I foolishly took the bait last time, this time my corp-mate saw the same thing happening. Also, the same alliance, a.k.a. Sleeper Social Club. Surely Your Joking has done the same thing in the past... it looks like a decent target and appears to be alone!
Appearances are decieving, the bait is dual propped or over tanked with long and short points. As soon as you take the bait, the rest of the gang piles through a hole and warps directly to you. Often lead by a dictor or hictor, to make sure they get the pod.
I would love to give them a good fight, since this is Akonois ( Wormhole space ) there are no fair fights. If you are both on grid, someone is about to die.
The end of the story is, Bob was not sacrified to and Ze logged out for the night.
