DrXanax named in article. Article goes in depth on other vendors involved including FastDonut and DrXanaxUSA.

Pretty fucking weird read. Goes a little to far into vendors that weren't busted. Even talked about Quantik and how he posted videos of his operation a while back.

Wouldnt sweat it. Lets take a good look at the situation. The DEA is here, and always watching this forum for people to make mistakes, or reveal operational information. IT just feels realer to the dealers when a big site names them in particular. The DEA didnt just start noticing you becuase FORBES did. In reality, if we're being honest, this sub would have been banned along with the rest, if it were not for the fact that LEO stand to gain far more from having it here. This reddit forum is more then likely invaluable in terms of gleaning information into the day to day workings of the vendors on the major markets.

Wow. It is eerie to have the sub mentioned in that article. It is very concerning the detail they went in. It's obvious that the writer isn't the usual schmuck who covers this shit. They pretty much nailed it and nailed the background.

Hopefully this doesn't have a broader impact. Many have mentioned it and I'm started to believe that something bigger is at play.

This latter detail led to something of a mini panic on Reddit’s DarkNetMarkets subreddit. The message was clear: if anyone hears from a dealer called DrXanax, do not respond as it’s probably law enforcement investigators. “If expecting any reships, clean house NOW,” the user said. The assumption was that DrXanax was one of those arrested.

They nailed it.

Seems like the reporter took the time fo investigate the story by lurking here and in the barb sub. On one hand it feels nice not to have some idiot spracking of made up shit but on the other hand it feels a touch closer when they get the facts right.


[11 Points] fratagascar:

It even mentions how this sub panicked. Damn.

The biggest part of OPSEC is shutting the fuck up, they got everything out this article from this forum. Stop dry snitching homies, stop guessing and spitting names.

4 or 5 years ago when I first got into Tor (let alone the markets) if someone were to tell me that there would be a subreddit or popular clearnet site that indexed and housed all of the information one could ever need about everything that's happening within the "internet black markets" (which is what I called them back then) as well as being the home for most of the admins and vendors where they openly communicate for all to see and monitor.

I'd laugh and tell you to have fun on your LE trap site, but here I am lol.

/u/FastDonut - still thinking of vending, huh buddy?


[5 Points] None:

Is it just me or is the writer basing all of his information off of this sub with no other sources listed?

It sounds like this guy browses this sub himself, how could he know all of this and even had the quantik video.


[3 Points] None:

its really like I almost already read this entire article before you posted, maybe its because pretty much every word of it was a quote from here


[3 Points] throwdemhoesaway:

Don't be sketched out about the article's author's depth of knowledge. He's a regular customer of mine and has a regular user account on here.

Dark nets by nature are horrible regarding opsec . Basically like any other black market but everyone snitches on each other.

Yawn...Who really cares, its how this game is played. Does anyone really believe the LE will EVER catch up to it??? The Cartels will send a 100 loads, a few get caught, most make it in America. And if somehow LE shows up at YOUR address because you made a purchase from this guy. Well by then you would have WIPED your laptop & reinstalled the OS on it. And If not, you encrypt your HD with VERACRYPT if they seize your PC or laptop!!!! They can take it away, but they can not make you give them the password, no way they random break the Serpent (cipher) encryption!!!! So stop the panic over this, its NOTHING!!!! Besides, if you can't handle the LE showing up, then you need to find something else to do, I hear that painting by numbers is fun!!!!

UGH. God damn it. These fucking fascist fucks. GO. THE. FUCK. AWAY. Sorry the pharmaceutical industries action is being cut in on, but get the fuck over it. YOU'VE. FUCKING. LOST. ITS OVER. The drug war is a failure, and thats an undeniable fact. God. Just fuck off you fucking pieces of shit.

fuck Quantik and Dr.Xanax for attracting so much attention to the alp game. If it is reschedualed in Canada it is 100% quantiks bitch ass fault..I bet he is a fat punk living in his mommies basement eating cheetos behind his computer all

oh and fuck bobafet too. He is a bitch ass kid with bunk ass powder. he is very far from a "major player" he was just lucky enough to have a source when a few others did not...but than he sent everyone a bunch of bunk ass shit and lost all credibility
