TradeRoute lots of semi-obvious scam accounts linked, reported

Some of these are already locked and banned but need admins to actually go through and handle this properly

Similar accounts are all over Dream but nobody seems to care in there

AlphaBay also had these type of accounts before I think

These accounts all have Wickr and Kik accounts listed

Some list phone numbers. The phone number always is provided by BANDWIDTH.COM which is a VoIP provider, not a legitimate cell phone

Some even list clearnet websites

Many photos are shared between accounts, easy sign

PGP key email often is in format of <name><numbers>@gmail.com

Many of the email addresses can be found in clearnet spam posts offering the exact same list of drugs, seems to be a long running scam just moved to TradeRoute

A lot with fake reviews now that they have been reported and called out. But the reviews have same broken English as the vendor bio. "THIS IS SHIT FROM REAL HOOD?"

I too have noticed this and have been commenting in the discussion pages trying to warn people. I've also been occassionally reporting the accounts, but they're still there and new ones every day. These accounts also tend to sell everything under the Sun and tend to not list precise quantities in the individual listings. It's always "contact on wickr for details" or some bullshit. Most people stay away but there's always that one gullible rich person that ends up FE'ing like $700 and making the whole thing profitable.

Some of the more successful ones (bossconnect, e.g.) will buy their own product and then write semi-believable reviews, esp. for DNM newbies.

Trust no vendor with kik / wickr in their profile.

Thanks for exposing this! It's at the least a scamming asshole, at worst a honeypot.

Good work homie. Most of the scams are obvious but ya people still fall for them no matter how obvious they are.

yeah, I saw one with ketamine pills. when I called bullshit, that k isn't bioavailable orally (17-22%) he told me to do my research and they were pills for ease of use............like easing them up your asshole??


[3 Points] BakedPastaParty:

I made a post a few days ago about something similar. You have one of the vendors I found listed "evolution-world" the other I found you don't have listed, it's "dope-exchange"


[2 Points] Psychonaut_For_Life:

Another piece of evidence that these vendors are scammers is that the same buyers are leaving reviews for a lot of them. For instance, if you look at the feedback for scam vendor accounts "bossconnect", "worldbossplug", and "evolution-world", the buyer "or****0" leaves 5-star reviews on all three.
