Vendor CandyNL threatening to dox me and 200 others... Help!

So a couple days ago I received this message from CandyNL on Dream Market:

READ THIS CAREFULLY

LIKE THE DEA DID BY SILKROAD AND ALL SEIZED WEBSITES: THEY INVESTIGATE EVERY ADDRESS AND BUYER. I START SHARING AFTER THE DEADLINE OF 4 DAYS.

IM READY TO SHARE AL YOUR PRIVATE INFORMATION (ADDRESS/USERNAME/ORDER-HISTORY) ON THE FOLLOWING WEBSITES/FORUMS I have screenshot of all messages/order history/username/ adress.

FROM TIME OF SENDING THIS MESSAGE DEPOSIT 1 BTC IN TO THIS BTC ADDRESS IF YOU NEED MORE THAN 96 HOURS FROM TIME OF SENDING THIS MESSAGE DEPOSIT 2.5 BTC IN TO THIS BTC ADDRESS IF YOU NEED MORE THAN 144 HOURS FROM TIME OF SENDING THIS MESSAGE

144 HOURS MEANS 6 DAYS WHICH IS MORE THAN ENOUGH TO PAY. AFTER THIS I WILL SHARE IT DIRECTLY.

Apparently about 200 people have received the same message, and he has already started posting names and addresses on the Dream Market forum.

I did not make a large order with him, but I am still very concerned. What should I do?

And the dream market mods are just letting him? Sounds like the market should take action...

So he has your address, bfd. He never sent anyone anything so there is no proof. Besides, Im sure the DEA has better things to do than worry about a bunch of kids who never got their dark market drugs. Relax. Nothing is gonna happen

Here suck my dick, CandyNL


[4 Points] pinochetHA:

Don't pay. If you pay he will ask for a lot more every single time he wants some money. A dox doesn't mean shit unless you have really annoyed dangerous individuals/groups. It doesn't prove that you have done anything wrong and on its own can't be used as evidence to substantiate a charge against you as it's just hearsay. Law enforcement would need a lot more than that and if you are careful they won't get it.


[3 Points] ToShowWithWords:

All things considered he can't really report others without reporting himself. Also whether or not he will report people is likly independent of him receiving money from that person. Meaning I think hes going to either report everyone or no one at the end and paying won't change what he does. Clean house also you do realize by placing this thread here you're greatly incrasing the number of people that know about where hes posting the addresses.

never order from a vendor with NL at the end.

This post is 4 months old but I'm just posting because its being linked to as an Active Warning on the side bar and this is good information for both OP and others reading who come into similar situations.

After completing an order with a vendor go through your PC and WIPE all data relating to said order. I know it's obvious but the more frequently you order the more likely you are to slip up unless you're constantly on your toes about opsec (which you should be...) but most of us unfortunately aren't until it seems too late.

You just need to put yourself in the mind of the DEA/police who would be arresting you in a worst case scenario. They would search you, detain you, search your house and then most importantly they would sieze all items they believe have relevance to the case against you almost always including mobile phones, laptops, pcs etc.

If you did so much as to send a text message or WhatsApp about an order, they can find it. Doesn't matter how long ago the message was sent! That's why best opsec practice is to constantly be wiping any data that could be used against you so if worst case scenario does come up you can deny any knowledge of whatever they claim you've done and you'd get a lawyer who would obviously point out the need for more proof than hearsay.

WhatsApp is End-to-End encrypted but there is pressure being put on by certain LEAs to be given access and it has been said that certain agencies have now found a working way to breach the encryption.

Telegram/Wikr are much safer alternatives for instant messaging anything which could later be used against you as they both offer superior encryption as well as bonus features such as self destruct timers and screenshot protection.

Hope this information comes of use to some of you. I was unfortunate enough to be on the wrong side of a seizure almost 2 years ago so know the system from first hand experience.

thank god my drop is anony


[2 Points] drugfreekid:

Clean house! This savage prick might do this, and that is enough to warrant a clean house. Stupid fuck, I think i'll message him myself and say a few things.


[2 Points] BudgetBuyer:

CandyNL? As in a Netherlands vendor? When will you retards learn to stop ordering from the literal worst possible choices? Shit like this would never happen at the volume it does if speed junkies and 12-year olds didn't come here to cry about their bad experiences and misdirect their stupidity onto anyone else but themselves. Enjoy getting extorted, at least they know how to choose the dumb ones. If you need me I'll be ordering from the scary corrupt LE-run George Soros child paedophilia funded Dream Market without a problem, like I always have.. Since the DNM's inception... tips tinfoil fedora


[2 Points] Kazaa99:

Please spread the word that this idiot is trying to blackmail DNM users, and is basically ruining a lot of the trust so many people have in using the markets.

Get as many as possible to basically troll him and spread an endless number of fake userlists on every site he claims he is posting his doxx lists to. Make users pretending to be him and write as if you are him trying to spread a link to a list of doxxed buyers ( fakenamegenerator.com makes it is easy to get some none existent users), and make sure there are more fake userlists than real ones.

Wickr is available for desktop, so make it more annoying for him by download a copy of it (in order to use it behind TOR) and keep making new users and write him from made up usernames and waste his time by saying you were a buyer and need extra time to pay, or ask if you can send him Western Union, Cash in the mail, Litecoin, BFX shit tokens or just write anything that is wasting his time. Or keep sending him pictures of Gay porn or other weird stuff...

Any minute spent on cleaning up his messages, is time he cant use on running this blackmail scheme.

OP should definitely reach out to some of the other victims, and start making some fake users and get started on this counter attack.
