[Complaint/Warning] USDank: Confirmed for Exit-Scamming.

Greetings everyone, relatively new poster to Darknet Markets, here to warn everyone about USdank.

USDank is all but confirmed by self-admission for pulling an exit-scam. The 8 newest reviews on his BlackBank profile show that several people have not received their packages in over a week, and his reviews on other markets show nothing but "5/5 Best vendor, FE'd will review once I receive product" For the last week or so. While that in itself could suggest that USdank is merely backlogged or caught up with some IRL issue, the fact of the matter is USdank has been logged in almost every day the past couple of weeks. He has enough time to clean the BTC out of his account, but not enough time to shoot a few messages out to worried customers, give tracking info to defend his reputation, or even log into his Reddit account to make a personal address.

I've messaged several people in the past week's worth of threads about USdank, some claiming to receive their packages late, and to have faith in the USdank, while other's have heard no communication, or those that have, get a tired or flimsy excuse such as "Oh, I'm mobile right now, I'll give you tracking information soon. If things don't work out I'll issue a reship or refund." I can say from experience that this is just something that scammer is saying to buy time and keep an air of legitimacy to a quickly unraveling reputation. Furthermore he may even eventually make an address if he sees another quick buck in it, issue refunds to a few people so they can shout on reddit about how USdank "Actually is a good guy! You'll see!", this will just be in an effort to make more BTC before he runs off with his loot.

Another sign is on Blackbank he has reinstated his QP listing, but FE only, so that he can squeeze every dime he can out of his quickly eroding rep.

I hate to drone on, but this post is for anyone that is still consdering USdank as a prospect for a bulk supplier, as well as admins of various markets to ban his accounts and take any other needed actions. Unfortunately, my money most likely gone, and your BTC is as well. If you have FE'd with him, I suggest that you write a review early, explaining that he is a scammer, as to prevent anyone else from losing their money. If Escrow, be thankful that you aren't as unlucky as some schmucks, and dispute your order ASAP.

Most of the information I've explained is available if you search USdank in past week's postings. If anybody has any further questions or insight, please feel free to PM me.

As a final word, I'd just like to reiterate a point some people have made in this thread: Please, do not ever FE.

Edit: Typos and better paragraph structure.

IMPORTANT EDIT: Upon further deliberation for various redditors I've been contact with over the past couple of days, we've come to the conclusion that the possibility of USDank having been caught is actually stronger than that of an Exit-scam, if you are expecting a package and you receive it, please be wary.

Yes, the bot removed your previous post because of you asking for money. That is against the rules (it even has it's very own rule)

Unfortunately, when people get scammed by an FE, it often turns into a mostly off-topic thread where the victim gets blamed for FE'ing. Of course people realize the risk they are taking, and unfortunately even if someone used FE 99 times with a vendor, they might decide the 100th is the time to scam.

However people overlook an obvious fact. Yes, FE scams can be prevented by refusing to FE, but we could hold a 75 page thread on the reasons why and why not to FE. This fact, however, is not the point of this or ANY similar thread.

This is the point:

WHEN A VENDOR PROMISES TO SEND YOUR ORDER IF YOU PREPAY AND DON'T SENT IT, THEY ARE THE SCAMMER and the buyer didn't *deserve it"; it doesn't "serve them right" and it is astonishing how many posts I see all over reddit in which the advice on what to do requires inventing time travel, like going back a week in time and not finalizing the order early.

However, I would like you to be able to post your warning. These communities operate by word of mouth and the more people with the same store adds credibility.

If you edit your post removing asking for money, even hinting about needing it by tugging at heart-strings for being in need for bills, send the link to the modteam (like in lower right "Message the Mods" asking if we will review it, and we can re-approve it. Please just stick to the facts about the order.

Once you do that, please use the "message the mods button down by our names and send a link to the edited thread and we will approve it. I'll keep my eye out for it.

I have no idea how I'm going to pay my bills this month.

Felt sorry for you until I realized you FE'd on a drug order and gambled with money you couldn't afford to lose.

Also if anyone feels inclined to throw some pity-BTC my way, I will shamelessly accept, I have no idea how I'm going to pay my bills this month.

Begging for BTCs will be why this post gets removed midst likely.

The Automod probably got the other one. Instead of creating a new throwaway, just message a mod and see if they'll approve it by hand.

They must be some sort of magical bitcoin wizards if they can get their money out of agora given their week of deposit / withdrawal / payment issues. Almost guaranteed they have more money on that site than NUC or BB. Why exit scam when you can't access the biggest portion of your coin and give time for the market to catch on to your scam. Any sociopath able to keep up almost a year of spotless service in the name of an exit scam would surely be smart enough to pick a better time to scam.

EDIT: Now BB is down for maintenence. Anyone with 2fa enabled was locked out all day today so far.

Just my speculation.

throwawayfordnm1234 your post makes you look like a very uneducated person. Nothing you said really "Confirms" anything. It is a simple and easy equation but still people like you I guess will never get it….

If you FE = always a gamble If you USE ESCROW = never a gamble

So please don't FE and then come on here and complain about how you FE'd and the vendor is exit scamming… Chances are with USDank that he is really not going to rip you off for being an idiot (even tho he probably should to teach you a lesson) chances are he's going to find this post and respond to you and you are going to get your order.. then you are probably going to look even more stupid.

Just here to throw my hat in the ring. Today marks day 10 since marked shipped on BB. One message from him after a week went by, but nothing since. I've really been hoping that USD maybe had some shit going on and maybe sent a few packs late, but at this point, I can't wait much longer. I've never waited this long for a pack from anyone. I might be disputing today. Nothing personal against USD, I just need my stuff quick.
