MC attracts the largest gathering of a'unsophisticated' players playing for big bucks. Imprint the language and cultural differences present, you can see why this looks like easy prey for the blood suckers.

Even Achim, an accomplished player, was unnerved to the extent that it may have cost him dearly.

Only when and if our community make enough noise will we be able to improve conditions.
