[Pandora] vendor "NoStress" gets hacked? I lose my order and BC's, can someone explain something to me?

I'm fairly new to this whole thing, and placed my first order. Brownies from "NoStress" via Pandora.

Few days till I have to confirm arrival or say it didn't arrive, and I see a post by the vendor on Pandora's forums saying Pandora hacked him, and they lost all their BC's and now moved to Agora...

I also recieved a message (not using PGP) from vendor saying they have been hacked by Pandora and not to purchase.

Anyways, I only had a couple days left so finally hit "Never Arrived" button which asks how much % I want back, and a message to vendor. However does the vendor have to accept my request back for money?

I'm like 90% sure I'm getting a huge black dick out of all this, and should have learned a lesson, but not sure exactly what...

Did Pandora really "hack" the vendor? vendor had great feedback, so I wasn't concerned when placing the order originally.

FML.

NoStress claims his account got stolen by the Pandora mods. He moved to Agora under the same name.

He has been around awhile, he's a trusted vendor IIRC.

The same thing happened to me. My order should have arrived yesterday and when it did not and Pandora was down I found the post saying he was hacked.

Nostress said all orders after 2/22 were lost to Pandora and not to use the site. His vendor page still appears active and multiple feedback with "FE" after that date.

I also requested a full refund and sent a message on Pandora to the "vendor". I have ordered from him previously, on another site, without any issues and he is active other places.

How many people are getting scammed? Postings also say PureFire was hacked...I'm also feeling the big black dick!

Crap, hate getting the dicks. First thing I notice is that you state you received an unsigned message from your vendor. That needs to be the first clue. Send an encrypted message back to him using his own key. If it is really him, he can read the message. It is possible to steal a vendor account, but it is not possible to steal the PGP private key. see where that goes..
