This is a warning only
I recently had a nightmare order from TarNation. It took several weeks. Had to dispute. Upon delivery, tracking information showed vendor had lied on at least 3 occasions about when he shipped. To his credit though, it did come and the weight was correct. Better late than never.
Since I received the product, I closed the dispute and paid the vendor. But first I left a note to the admins (copying TN) documenting how shitty the order was, to support any other buyers who may be in similar situations. TN responded today by saying he suffered a major security breach, but he is back online now.
If you have a recent or open order, or are considering ordering from TarNation, be very careful. The pattern from LE in major busts is to identify a vendor, then observe before busting, to identify suppliers, buyers, conspirators etc. Only time will tell if TN managed to evade LE, or if the feds are parked outside his house right now. As buyers, if TN is being watched we could be subject to; controlled deliveries, package seizures, or your name & address may be added to an LE watch list.
If you're concerned, all you can do now clean house & computer. Mine practically sparkle at the moment. Going forward, don't fucking sign for anything. You never should, but now it's life and death. Don't open any package that look different than usual.
TL;DR TarNation claims he had a major security breach, but recovered. He may be under surveillance by the feds as we speak. Be careful.
