Corporate traders don't inrp pay pirates out of their own personal bank account. They pay from the company's insurance fund, which any corporation would have for exactly this purpose. "I'm just an overworked employee making 100k a day" is a weak excuse.

A pirate relative... mate... some-one I once knew demanded 50 million from a certain trader in a barge who had a load of RA. Purchase price was 7.5 million SC. Cheaper to die than to pay. The certain trader related to the pirate that it seemed excessive and unfair. Said pirate shot him dead.
Moral of this story? Playing a pirated victim in RP is pointless in the above scenario. The RP is meh, and the game becomes bland with b-grade inRP encounters.
You can report people for this and they will be sanctioned.
