Hi Guys

sorry if I'm being a bit stupid here, but I was trying to buy some bitcoins from the market and the ad told me to contact "snoemaker"

how do I actually do this?

Thanks

Hello ang,

If you found this person's ad on the Forum and they do not have a Silk Road vendor account they are prohibited from making sales here. 'snoemaker' doesn't have a vendor account; as such, it seems quite likely that you're setting yourself up to be scammed.

pureogkush seems to be a reputable vendor, and it would seem they are either using a second account to process Bitcoin orders or else the account belongs to the person who processes the orders.

I never recommend any Bitcoin traders because of the risk that if someone gets scammed, my own legitimacy comes into disrepute, but you can read more about pureogkush and his service in the following threads:

I would advise you to read through each thread in it's entirety before making a decision on whether to go ahead with your purchase.

You can contact "snoemaker" by searching for that user in the Search box on the Silk Road marketplace itself, or you can use the following link to contact them directly (I would recommend that you search for the user yourself on SR; never trust links that a member gives you on the forums without researching them yourself, and do not trust what another forum member tells you, again, without doing your own research):
