Dream market is compromised & LE may be fighting off hackers

The forum was hacked, and FriedTheChicken stated he had spoke with the admin and posted a phishing link to get user creds by asking for a PIN login. FTC was listed a Forum Moderator for Dream.

Now the forum is gone after Dream went down for Maintenance. This happened 2 days after the faked official phishing post.

Many vendor accounts are inactive, seized, or controlled with different PGP.

These vendors accept your order and never ship. There is no way to cancel or dispute.

Didn't big muscles have shit English? 😂 Where'd this level of english come from

Vendors are getting seized probably because their login info was phished from LE having control of Hansa or maybe AlphaBay. Should've used different credentials across the board.

When I read the title I invisioned Feds vs. Hackers played out like Heaven vs. Hell in South Park on the PSP. The following story you told me left me sad.

tbh no normal market could handle the flood of both Hansa and AB users we are talking vertical and horiztal scaling. NO ONE can handle the flood of 100,000+ new users on a tor connection by throwing computers. when you have that many pings, and DDOS issues you need to RECODE and throw more computers at the issues. coding takes time and was implemented really quick

I just had a conversation on dream with a vendor two days ago, PGP key was still the same. I won't do any orders for a while now but I don't think it's compromised. Forum was set to read-only a month ago or so.
