You'll more often than not find that the activation cost for these are extremely high (usually in the hundreds of millions, into the billions, though sometimes much less). They are often in ships that would be juicy on your killboard, or look easy to kill. What they have done is simply illegally aggressed an alt (or sometimes a trusted friend) using a Rookie Ship. The alt earns the kill right. The idea here is that someone will pay to activate the kill right and the alt earns the ISK for the pilot with the kill right available. They often have their ship insured and are in a position to easily evade your attack and get away (such as jumping the gate or docking up), or they just don't care if they lose the ship. No matter what, the pilot with the kill right earns the ISK, and often you don't have a kill. If you do get a kill, it's often against a hilariously cheap or even non-fit ship. | ||
Be especially aware that if they are sitting on a station this may be part of a ruse to get you to activate the kill right and attack them. They'll dock-up and reship into something that will burn you down. They get your ISK and a kill against you. They operate very similar to others who sit as flashy suspects on stations. | Be especially aware that if they are sitting on a station this may be part of a ruse to get you to activate the kill right and attack them.
