Vendor put my address in the seller notes in cleartext...

I sent my address to a vendor for a sample order of crystal, I encrypted it with his PGP key, and I just looked at the order and it's in cleartext in the seller notes (AB), should I tell him to remove it? He's very new so that might explain it, but still concerns me.

I don't know, should you? Of course you fucking should.

People are making it seem like the end of the world. It's not good, but it's not too terrible either.

I would definitely talk to the vendor about it and if he is too butt hurt about it I would talk my business elsewhere. I highly doubt this slip up will lead to anything though.

I would also msg ab mods to remove it

LOL wow, let's hope it's their first few days and they just weren't familiar with AB's interface. Additionally—for sake of your sanity—odds are miniscule that LE is able to access* this information. Only visible to you, the vendor, and any AB admin that might be summoned to your order (for a potential dispute).. Beyond that, consider it buried beyond anyone else's recognition

Only if/when they've seized the servers can this happen. At which point, yes, it might be a lingering piece of data in AB's hierarchy of information available. But think of all the transactions that occur on a daily basis.. It's still gonna get buried to a heavy extent. I'd imagine they would do a "sort by volume: descending order" and work through leads like that.. Not the new'ish vendor with a handful of deals haha. Even then, what? They'll forward it to your local LE and they're gonna waste the manpower/resources to NAIL YA without so much as an inkling of tangible evidence? Mehhhh lol :p

You bought hard drugs and your address is visible.
