When LE busts a vendor, why don't they assume control of the vendors account for a few months. Collect loads of addresses and then scam / go bust those people.
While most of the time you have the "can't prove you ordered it' argument. Since most of the people being scammed will message the vendor 'where the fuck is my product' kinda proves they ordered it.
In the hansa takeover a bunch of vendor accounts got compromised but they changed the PGP keys? Why on earth would you do that and not use the old ones, surely you could coerce the vendor into unlocking it in exchange for a deal.
Or are they really not looking for buyers this much?
They do. And why are you siding with the enemies ?
