How to tell if a vendor is LE or scammer?

What are the signs of a scammer or LE. Is it likely for LE to do fake deliveries. I wanted to use trusted big name vendors but all the big name, domestic ecstasy pill vendors are either on vacation or dry right now (their names also not showing up when I try to search for them on dream for some apparent reason).

Scammer: Relatively new vendor, attractive prices, lots of review comments for small orders and by the same individual, private messages the buyers making up some excuse to have them finalize early OR offer extra if they do. LE: selling any type of gun, bomb or weapon.

Imagine a reality where all vendors are LEO then...

Oh wait that's this reality.

Be weary if the vendor wants to meet in person....

Easy. If you get busted by the vendor, they were LE. If you get scammed, it was a scammer. If your weed arrives in good order, it was a decent vendor. Any other questions? This is the darknet market we're talking about here, so expect shit to happen and you probably won't be disappointed.

Ummm...you should check me out on Dream for MDMA presses, unless you are outside of the US. I've been vending for over a year with a perfect feedback score for a reason.

My prices have gone up a bit on the new stock sadly, but as you mentioned, all the other vendors are dry; customs/scammers from EU are keeping US XTC vendors in a bind, and it was expensive and difficult to get those two-tone presses to the States, so I have to recoup those costs. Things go well, I should be able to do a bit bettert with a Spring Sale or something. Peace!

Hella $1 or similar reviews and no or very few reviews on high priced items the vendor is trying to sell.

Asking for fe when they dont have that right

Common fucking sense and some basic critical thinking

Be wary of new vendors with tons of reviews selling lots of small low priced Goods such as Pharmaceuticals for low low prices.

Or a new vendor offering samples for just the cost of shipping, sometimes this is legit but I've often thought this would be a good way for law enforcement to collect names and addresses of people using DNM's.

Just play it safe and do your research on the vendor. If they're new and you don't want to risk losing your coin, don't order from them is all you have to do.

OP, DarkNetters have been asking this since before SR and well always be suspicious and cautious. When you someone has the answer-theyll let us know.

LE doesn't vend with drugs. At least, I've yet to see a single report of a drug bust by a LEO pretending to be a vendor. Drug users are a low priority. They'd almost certainly be doing the reverse; pretending to be a customer to bust vendors. They'd much rather have the dealers rather than customers. And more importantly, since the investigation is national or even international, that means federal agencies are involved. Federal agencies don't give two shits about some smack head. They want the guy selling kilos, not the crackhead. They leave that shit for the local police.

Now weapons on the other hand, that's an entirely different ballgame. You'd have to be a moron to deal in weapons (guns, bombs, your momma's used tampon, etc) and fentanyl. Those are the two biggest targets right now.

Oh, you guys are so unfortunately off the mark... they'll usually seem like a mid range, run of the mill, nice, 4.5 star vendor. They'll send you the real drugs. They'll record it all too. They'll see what you say online and they might offer you a great deal or just launch it out of the blue (happened on Alpha.) Meeting in person means nothing, LE doesn't need to for a darknet bust.

This applies to Australia first, you will be amazed the tricks the police pull, particularly the AFP
