[CommunityDiscussion]What really happened to Usdank

So recent reports of packages not coming in from vendor Usdank have hinted at some kind of problem in their operation. Some point towards exit scam, while others point towards backlog. I personally think that usdank is compromised. Reason being not too long ago he attempted to open his own .onion website with horrible security. Reports of it showing clear net ip and requiring JavaScript and also personal information to registrar. I believe this was his down fall. I believe he is either arrested or currently working out a plan with LEO. Lets have a discussion.

This is very plausible. In a private chat with another guy that got scammed, we both kinda thought that with how upfront and communicative USD has been in the past, that a lack of comms would signify they've been compromised. With the way they communicated in the past, I would think if they were scamming, they'd have the PR to get out in front of it and work on the long con, instead of just go dark.

I've been working with another person /u/GPJdnmTA We are actually theorizing on the same idea. I've already posted another thread:

http://www.reddit.com/r/DarkNetMarkets/comments/34qwxd/complaintwarning_usdank_confirmed_for_exitscamming/

However as we've deliberated, we've come to an alternative conclusion that suggests that if he were exit-scamming, it appears far too sloppy to have been planned out, hinting that he may have indeed been compromised.

If he was arrested he wouldnt be logging in everyday on BB and Agora.. and if the feds had his account info they wouldn't be silent.. they would put some bs message out to make ppl feel safe so they could get ur $$ and ur info.

A very high thought that I had back during the EVO shitshow.

What if a corrupt market took over a high level vendors account? They wouldn't be able to respond to anyone who pgp encrypted their communications assuming they don't have the vendors private key/pass. Doesn't make sense that it's all 3 markets at one time for USDANK so sadly this half baked brownie is inedible.

LE takeover / compromised vendor is probably what's going on.

Placed order 4/30 marked shipped 5/1 in the evening. No pack as of today, but that's not as troubling as the fact that I didn't get the normal "you got blah blah blah, expect your pack to touchdown blah, but please wait until blah and contact us before leaving a negative review blah blah 5 star service fuckshitcuntdickass." message they normally send upon shipping.

So around 3 days USdank disappeared from my jabber, possibly blocked / deleted me. I was trying to talk to him for like 4 days prior to being deleted/blocked, did this happen to anyone else? I was sending him a lot of complaints, wanted to work things out, so figured he just said screw me, but he could have easily taken my money the whole time, I'm just now seeing this "exit scam", something I thought he would NEVER do. The guy has lost like 30k due to evo exit scam and around another 20k from when btc dropped significantly months ago. He's definitely not getting his $ back from this exit.

I think what someone previously said is correct. He was just starting to launch his new shatter. He planned to stick around. Looks like LE caught a package and he now wants to make a run for it. His stealth was really fucking good. Someone must have ordered to a previously burned drop and ruined it for all of us. The way he shipped his packages though, I'm not sure they could even trace back to him

There are a few of "things" that make an exit scam seem less likely

1) No withdrawals on Agora, why exit scam when most of the funds would be tied up until after your exposed as scamming

2) No listings on Nucleus

3) Didnt change shipping to worldwide


[2 Points] Ivebeenreal:

Tbh I consider him compromised or scamming until reports start flowing in with confirmation of touchdown from people with more then a few days worth of post. All these he coulda scammed me if he was scamming cause I asked to deal directly with him statements show to many signs of being puppet accounts.

BB mods say they are investigating but "most cases are late deliveries." Whatever that means


[1 Points] Tittyboi_3Chainz:

am I the only one who got their pack? lol ordered 21. shipped 22. came last Thursday.


[1 Points] ImThrowingThisAway42:

Since people are claiming that he has been compromised, you think that the LE is going to try and see if they could find their customers?


[1 Points] throwawaytexan5:

One possible downfall could be when he was having an issue with his delivery man he sent out tracking info to calm customers but in cleartext. Cringe

I placed an FE order for a 1/2 lb at 2am on 4/24 and received in on 4/28. Looks like I may be one of the last to leave positive feedback on BB


[1 Points] Xxzotikk:
