So when you mine, do you just roll into a belt and push button and go afk for a bit?

One great scam was a corp member that approached a small corporation (~25 people) looking to rent space in 0.0 He convinced them to give him access to their corporation (roles) so that he could move their stuff to their new home in one of our systems via jump freighters. Then he led them up to the system (after informing a bunch of us where they would be, so they could be promptly destroyed upon reaching their new home). They were destroyed and all their corporation assets were now in Goonwaffe's hands, products were sold and given to the corp and many a good laugh was had.

Eve is cruel to those that are naive.
Pretty much. I don't really know what else to do.

I have my secondary character flying a Industrial ship so sometimes i'll bring him along to pull my cargo back to station as i've been screwed jerrycan mining a few times.

In fact once on my main i also had a cruiser and some guy in a frigate jacked my can, and i went and grabbed my cruiser and he killed me ridiculously easily...that was a cruel lesson learned : a better ship doesn't mean you'll win in a fight. This was at the time i was super poor and was mining in a cruiser with 3 miner 2's. I had 3 projectile turrets and a couple small launchers and he tore me apart in a frigate worth 1/50th of my ship.

Any ideas on good corps for newbies? Do all corps want miners?

edit: I can't afford another retreiver/strips/fittings so i can't afford to venture into low sec for better roids, so i pretty much have to mine scordite until i have more money / a corp to protect me.
