The scammers /flippers /baiters are what you need to watch for.

as a general rule I used to have a can which I mined into with 1 piece of veld in it - I would then transfer through it into a hauler.  If anybody approached the can I would blow it up with my drones or, if there was one piece in it wait and see what he did. Seeing an "oh fuck" in local from the guy when he realised he had turned himself flashy red for the sake of one piece of veld was priceless - I decided to let him off, but if my corpie with a stealth bomber hadn't been afk it might have turned out differently.

Also, don't leave drones out some scams work off that - I'm not entirely sure how but best not.  The rules on aggression and who can shoot how and when in Empire are serious rocket-science I don't even pretend to really understand (a bit like the rule against split infinitives).
