Warning: Exit scam in progress by DutchMagicDM from Valhalla

This vendor has used my pgp key in his profile and I've received PM's from users on Alphabay accusing me of scamming. The scammer in question:

http://valhallaxmn3fydu.onion/dutchmagicdm

I've used the same pgp for over 3 years now, which you can verify on my grams account:

grams7enufi7jmdl.onion/vendor/Green-Machine

You can see this vendor has pasted my pgp key in his profile, and he instructs users to not encrypt information to him and that they respond to plain text pm's.

Im very interested to know how this vendor account got 1192 positive feedback score using my pgp key, are they refusing all pgp orders and requiring plain text for everything? That is very scary for all those poor customers who are going to be victims of honey potting by LE.

The feedback score appears to be suspect, or valhallas feedback system is very poor. Revenue stated is only roughly 4 thousand dollars by this person, but has a 1192 positive feedback score? Is one transaction worth 2k points? Very misleading. Only 1 feedback that I can see too.

The only scenario I can imagine is that this person is running a legit DNM business building up a reputation so that they can exit scam and try to lay blame at my feet when the scam happens, and according to PM's from random people I have received on alphabay that time is now.

I have contacted the support reddit user on the market superlist for valhalla, but the forums URL does not work it just redirects to the market. I have now contacted admin too.

They should never allow a vendor to put a pgp key in their profile without verifying that it is their key. If their market is this sloppy on security I would not trust it with your money!

We require you to finalize early before we can send out your order!

lol

Eh, it doesn't say they require plain text for everything. They even say to encrypt address information (Unless they've updated it since you've posted)

Please do not send us encrypted messages unless it is address sensitive information

Yes.

Yes, something sketchy is going on. The exact same thing happened to me. I have been dealing with Valhalla's support for almost 2 weeks now, trying to get my impostor removed from the market. 2 weeks and he's still on there, still chatting to customers and still scamming.

Like you, only I have my PGP key and can decrypt messages with it.

So something is very wrong there. Markets are supposed protect customers from scamming vendors, my impostor has neg feedback and I know of four customers who were scammed. Yet they still allow my impostor to operate. I have to run. I will edit this post tomorrow with more details.

DM was a decent vendor back in the Agora days. Not sure if this the same team or just some impostor
