Detailed, step-by-step guide to the DNMs & OPSEC.

This guide has been updated and added to the DNMNoobs sidebar and wiki. Here is a direct link to it: https://www.reddit.com/r/DarkNetMarketsNoobs/wiki/step-by-step

.

EDIT: I have removed the guide I had posted here since it is now on the DNMNoobs sidebar and has been updated several times. The link is above.

Sticky this to the noobs sub. If they can't find the sidebar or the stickied posts we are in real trouble.


[6 Points] ScarlettHerring6:

as a DNM noob, I find this really helpful especially after having gone through all the DNM Noobs links. I saved this for myself, but will this be saved in anywhere on the sub? I think a lot of us will find it useful

CDs don't hold 4GB, did you mean DVD?

Also, this guide seems to be for buyers, is there another one for sellers?

Reserved 1... EDIT: Didn't think it would all fit in the main textbox, but it did... :)

So using Tails voids the ability to use a VPN. But isn't the intent of using a VPN to hide TOR traffic? So your ISP can now see TOR Traffic if you're just using tails...or am I missing something? I guess bridges are always possible but isn't hiding TOR traffic mildly important? Considering the last couple of days with posts such as "The FBI considers you a criminal if you use TOR" which is whatever cause it's legal BUT to reduce any suspicion at all hiding TOR traffic is needed...right?

Great guide. Just a note on part 5, step 4: I wouldn't get anything sent at work. If you get LE at your private address, you have a big problem, but might be able to control damage. If they turn up at work, you have the same big problem, plus you've lost your job, all in one go.

I would recommend removing the section on downloading and installing TAILS and just pointing to the section on the TAILS website that covers doing that. The website will always have the most updated information about how to work with it. Also point people to /r/tails if they have issues with installing or booting into it. /r/DarkNetMarketsNoobs always has a bunch of questions about computer problems that would be better answered at the dedicated sub for TAILS.

I keep reading that you should always use your real name, but no one says why.

What is the reasoning behind this?


[2 Points] None:

It's late, but I book marked this to read later, since it's so long. Prolly some good pointers in here folks.


[1 Points] None:

Bookmarked. Thanks man!

Thanks man!


[1 Points] Wingman4l7:

What do you mean "VPN doesn’t work with TAILS!"? That's not true...

EDIT: Nevermind, that is correct: https://tails.boum.org/support/faq/index.en.html#index21h2

EDIT 2: I must have been thinking of people using a VPN via their router firmware, and then using TAILS on that network.

Can someone please explain to me :

So Tails keeps your house clean and any keeps any evidence of wrong doing off your PC.

But is it not saver, in some extent (debatable), to be able to use a VPN along with Tor?

What's the pros and cons for the two options?


[1 Points] Crookseh:

Does it matter that i'm not using tails and just TOR? will the LAPD shortly be kicking down my front door :D?

No offense, you sound like you just learned opsec and reposting what you've just learned for the first time.

If you have to read this to use DNM then DNM is not for you.
