Ponzi in space, with avatars

Gaming, economics, and crime: a player runs a Ponzi scheme on a MMOG, walking off with tons of local currency.  The game's EVE Online*, and one question concerns out of game implications.  Gamers with Jobs suggests a tax fine.  ArsTechnica thinks this is a business matter, turning on the EULA and the company behind EVE.

*I really wanted to play EVE.  But the installer, then the client, were far too crashy.
