Pirate tips for easy cash

Just some (maybe star system specific) tips for anti spreadsheet people for some nice cash boost.

System: NGALIBA
Equip: FSD interdictor (rank E is sufficient), cargo hatch breaker (must be rank A), cargo scanner, reasonably sized cargo bay.
There are 2 stations in this system with heavy traffic between them (1700 ls distance). Basically what you do is you target type 6/7, adders, haulers in SC and then jump them. Scan very often reveals some crazy cargo load like 40 military plans, tech prototypes, blueprints, rare artwork etc. If the victim is shieldless, just get close and shoot that limpet at him. He won't do anything. If he's super packed, use like 3 limpets (use next one as soon as the siphoning is completed). Then collect the goods. If he's shielded just nuke the shields first. Then destroy him or just keep collecting with 4 pips in system.

When your cargo bay is full, head to the one of the stations. They both have black market available. First check out the bulletin board. There will be lots of missions from gangsta factions like 25k for 2 prototype tech etc. Very often there is also a mission requiring you to procure 2 slaves on the board. You can buy the slaves directly at the market there and turn in instantly (free 25k). Check your cargo bay. Keep your military plans, prototypes etc. up to the like quarter or third of your total cargo capacity as a reserve. When you next arrive on the station you can reuse them on the new missions.

This way you can very quickly grind up your local rep. Profit ranging from 100-300k per hour. Also when you are bored with NPCs, human cmdr traffic is also quite heavy there ;) Just don't forget the pirate etiquette.

Sometimes you can get interdicted by pirates (even if you are friendly/allied with them). K-warrant scanner might come handy here for some extra cash.
