Hi guys,
First off, I'm a "beginner" in Darknet market orders. I only did like 5 - 6 orders, in which all of them were on SR 2.
Since this site is not "available" anymore, I had to look for a new one. I tried out Area51 and did a small order. This is where the problems begin:
I recieved the vendors payment adress, paid around 5 minutes later and until now (2 1/2 days later) nothing changed on the order process (it still says "open, waiting for payment").
After 1 day of waiting on a status change, I've wrote a message to the vendor and to the support to ask for confirmation/processing of my payment.
Can someone who has expierence with this site explain the processing to me? Or did I most likley got scammed?
And if I got scammed, which other market would you recommend me, that is safe atleast in this regard.
Thanks for help
*edit: I know the vendor from SR and everything went fine with him there *edit 2 : in the meantime, the wallet adress of the vendor changed (not sure if this is common, but it still says "waiting for payment") + I've searched for the name of the vendor here and one user claimed that he got hacked on SR 3 months ago. If allowed and asked for, I will post the name here (he has the status of a "trusted vendor" though)
I think I have heard of that site but I know nothing about it.
Agora, evolution, and black bank seem to be the most popular right now. Oh and nucleus. Links in the sidebar.
None of them are really "safe", however. They could be taken down tomorrow for all we know.
