How about asking friends? or a LPI officer if in Liberty space.
Funnies thing happened once. I was at stakeout with my two xeno buddies, we were waiting for a weapon dealer to undock from the planet, evading the texas npcs and that darn bship and this guy comes along and asks can we do a transfer. I say sure, since its oorp anyway and i lose hostility since i had police to almost neutral then (had to shoot the darn train cd at them every time) so i take the cash. It was about 300million and the dude goes offline.
SHZAM, weapon dealer undocks.
And its a frikkin standstill cause I have no idea what's going on now, and the dealer goes "okay, get the cash here".
And the comments in the group chat were total fail and everything, I just couldn't stop laughing since it was 4am and eh.. So we gave him the cash and just went away, totally defeated.
point is... there's honorable people in the game, don't lose faith, ask politely and someone will always come along.
