Similar thing: sometimes I've seen strange trades at centrum which have "apparently" been keyed in the wrong way: like 1 wood for 25m gold each instead of 25m wood for 1 gold each.  Naturally I have taken advantage of these extremely generous trades and funnily enough no-one has ever complained!  It happens only rarely, but it does happen.

I would question any random gold turning up in my cities, if I had noted it - purely because of my RL job

But the figures being 'quoted' I'd note, as I don't keep a lot of gold in my cities

I quite agree, under normal circumstances, that is reasonable, but there is that room for doubt...just say the city in question has vans inbound, constantly and a gold reserve in the billions...what if a billion gold appears and the total goes from, say, 4.6 billion to 5.6 billion...would it be that far fetched that someone not paying too much attention not notice?

perhaps if they were being sat and the person sitting them was a cheat--- then I may say they may not have noticed.

oh-- thats kind of what happened, right?

Unfortunately you are responsible for the actions of your sitters, and your sitters can get you banned. Choose your sitters wisely.

Under notifications... there is a way to NOTICE things incoming into to your city (s), I look there to see what has happened since I haven't been online. Usually I investigate who came to my city and why. Notifications cover all your cities, am I right?

yes. except for the occasional glitch when you dont get a notification. Those are quite irritating. I have used notifcations to prove to other alliances a trade history before.

Good question, but I have no idea. Why don't a ton of players send me vast amounts of unsolicited gold and i'll get back with you on when I decide its appropriate to message the sender.
