We just spent $5,000 purging all of our buyers information Incognito ~ CocaineInc : Archetyp | Torhoo darknet markets

What the fuck.. I'm not sure that paying them was the best move to be honest because they're not exactly trustworthy so anything could happen. Obviously just scamming more money out of people.

That's very bold of them threatening that and saying I guess nobody ever slipped up. Well let's all hope they never slipped up either eh? This is absolutely disgusting that they've stooped this low and I hate to say it, but I hope this turns into the sort of situation that happened with WSM.

There are a lot of very skilled and educated people on dread. I wonder if any of them will take this as a challenge to determine what information they might be able to uncover regarding incognito market staff involved in this. Reminds me of a movie:

Why are vendors paying? This guys an asshole he will just release the info no matter what you do

is incognito for real??? none of this making any sense

Of course it makes sense. Drug users are paranoid and most dealers don't understand LEO, they're just scared.

It's not a bad exit, their only real mistake was trying to get Hug to take down Dread instead of doing it themselves the way Apollon/Reloaded did.

pharoah obviously could have put together a DDOS to knock Dread off for a few days, the mistake, as thieves often make, was assuming everyone else was a greedy and dishonest as them.

Just don't pay this fucking clown.

Do you really believe that information was really purged ?

WHAT THE ACTUAL FUCK?????
This could be potentially VERY dangerous to vendors that used BTC instead of XMR (why tho).
Anyways what Incognito is doing here is normally called a "dick move"

Anyways, I'd say that this is a lesson to all of the people that didn't use PGP after all

1) Never pay a blackmailer, they will blackmail you again

2) Given that sing-songy bitch post on the site, how can you possibly believe anything will be deleted? pharoah already said they haven't extorted the buyers yet. If indeed you paid, you paid for nothing.

3) How did you pay there isn't a payment address attached to the purge function (or wasn't when I looked 20 minutes ago)

You mean you just wasted $5,000. He'll just keep blackmailing you as long as you pay up. And when you stop paying, he'll release the info anyway. It sucks for your customers but it's kinda on you and them for trading in BTC and not using pgp encryption for sensitive data.

If nothing else it at least accomplishes that this vendor wants to communicate how much they care about their customer data, safety etc

Can't hate on that.

I'm going through my feedback currently trying to determine when I joined that marketplace.
I do not know if I was on Archetyp first or what.

I believe I joined around Novermber, I am currently tracking down all of my TX ID's and determining if I potentially leaked myself by sending BTC to an address with KYC.
I have been smart enough to use new addresses every withdrawal, deposit, etc.. I've ALWAYS made sure BTC goes to a cold wallet. I do not touch it at all for at least a year. But now this has me worried.

You know he is going to leak the information anyways,
Let's talk about being one of the most dishonorable people to ever enter the DNM scene.

I suggest other vendors go through their TX ID's as well and trace down which wallets things were sent to.
This is also a good reason why every vendor should have a hardware wallet.
This is also a good reason why every customer should use XMR.

I do not know if paying him is going to be the best solution.
This is also a good reason why I rarely give out tracking information.
I usually check tracking history myself and copy / paste the whereabouts of the package.

I am going to modify my refund policy right now to state "I will never give out tracking information."
I have ALWAYS recommended people use PGP then copy/paste that information into the markets.
I had a gut feeling that marketplaces store sensitive data and the auto-encrypt feature to be bullshit.

I am lost for words. All I can say is "Wow."
I hope he stubs his fucking toe getting out of bed tomorrow.

what the fuck

Doesn't make sense? Look at the game we are in? You do know there is no honor amongst thieves right?

this is fucked, we need to find this fucker and shut them up

where the hackers at :((

btw ALWAYS USE PGP AND YOU SHOULDNT BE WORRIED

What the actual fuck!?

Sorry to hear this but why give in to extortion? :(

and the award for the most scumbag admin off all time goes tooo

NEVER NEGOTIATE!

Ransomware move, this is disgusting.

This is absolutely low of any market admin to do.You can only trust yourself with your security.

Don't rely on built-in encryption on any of these sites! You don't know what they store on their back-end.

Buyers, PLEASE use PGP and pay with XMR! DO NOT EXPOSE INFORMATION TO ANYONE WHO DOESN'T NEED TO SEE IT! I don't want to see your safety become compromised due to greed!

lol i hope you are joking

to be honest i'm glad i discovered this market the day before that fuss
next day i was planning to make few orders.
i'm very sad for you all
i guess no place is safe but this is really dirty shit move
i hope they will choke on they next pasta meal

You should not have paid mate. He is going to keep the data and just take your money. By paying you have also shown future exit scammers vendors are willing to get extorted

I ordered on Incognito and got some of the best coke ever only problem is I paid for 7gs and only got 3.4g. Can I get a reship or take a loss. You know I've spent a lot with you and have been very loyal to my go to. So yeah or nah lik.

What a bunch of faggots
