beware buying anything from anyone on this sub who mentions they can sell you something directly instead of thru a market

a guy named humboldtcannabis mentioned in a thread that he had some amphetamine paste he could let go of. I PM'd him and he said he was in the US, where it's hard to get amp. paste, so I said I'd take some. At a glance his profile looked like he was a regular poster and I liked the idea of it not going through customs, so I sent him $65 in BTC. Then he deleted his account so now I can't contact him. Strangely, he insisted on me signing for the delivery so he could track it, so he said. This was my first buy and I thought I found a shortcut. Obviously not.

Somebody in the thread actually accused him of being LE and he laughed it off. I don't think LE would waste the time to catch a small-time buyer. They want the sellers.

Dudeeee...use your head, man. Sucks someone took you for $65, but this is AGAINST THE RULES. don't even think about it in the future.

Its good that you posted this. Most people would be to embarrassed and there's always people on here that will post stupid comments making u feel worse. Good karma for you and hopefully bad karma for the scammers and a-holes.

When I saw the scammer's original post I immediately downvoted it and was like "wow fuck who the hell is gonna fall for that?" Unfortunately I now have an answer... $60 isn't that much to pay for this lesson.

Ask for pics with a timestamp and don't pay until after.
