Silk Road forums

Thats all good, but this is not some holistic advice forum, this is a forum where illegal things are sold and where huge amounts of money is turned over. Its going to happen regardless.

I know a scam post when i see one, especially when there like 4 pages filled with the same topic...if you are too dumb to not realise..then maybe you deserve to get scammed!

No one deserves to get scammed.  :\

Interesting -- I hadn't noticed that post about forgetting their password.

Unless "LUCYDROP" (the new one) provides proof of a vendor account, we will continue to lock their threads.

Be very cautious going forward with either of those users!

LucyDrop -- Just a heads up, but someone is posting as you:
https://dkn255hz262ypmii.onion.lu/index.php?topic=121384.0

Could the real LD have been busted and its LE trolling for their customers??

It's possible, but improbable.  If the real LucyDrop had been busted and LE was trolling for their customers, I'd assume they'd come up with some type of story explaining why their username had suddenly changed, and why they were suddenly asking for addresses via PM.

There have been imposters registering usernames which are only slightly different from legit vendors, and then scamming people ... so I'm guessing that's what happened with that other thread (which I've locked).

You don't give a fuck?  In one sentence you take issue with "newbs" being scammed, and in the next sentence you say you don't give a fuck about the btc spamming?  You do realize that the btc spamming DOES scam "newbs", right? 

That's part of why it was such a huge problem ... because newer users didn't know that the spammers were scammers, and would attempt to buy bitcoins from them, thinking they were legit.  Thus, they'd get scammed.

So if you care about people getting scammed, then you SHOULD "give a fuck" about the btc spamming that we're trying to keep a handle on.

This poster is NOT the actual "LucyDrop" by the way. 

in fact, locking this thread.

LUCYDROP - if you want to send out sample or advertise your product, then you need to pay for a vendor account and do your business over on the marketplace -- you should NOT be asking for addresses via PM.

Lool this idea i understand,for spammers etc etc, but for vendors like me is no good,i can't even reply to my own vendor thread....Wtf?

Then when you get to 35+ transactions, send a message to inigo requesting access to the vendor forum.  That will allow you to post wherever you'd like, regardless of your post count.
