Apologies for the throwaway (these usually make me suspicious of FUD), but this needs it's own thread. I only came to this realization because someone mentioned it in another thread about BrainCandy. Sure enough, a huge red flag has occurred.
My friend ordered a small personal amount of LSD through BrainCandy some weeks ago. The PGP key that was used to encrypt his address is different than the PGP key that BrainCandy has posted on The Majestic Garden. In fact, the former key has been removed and his post has been edited on February 19th with a different key.
As far as I can tell, he has not mentioned a word about this. Also, after several requests to sign his messages in his TMG thread, he has failed to respond at all and instead continues to post telling everyone not to worry.
If you don't believe me, look for yourself: hxxp://bm26rwk32m7u7rec.onion/index.php?topic=8281.msg144676#msg144676
Be sure to check his PGP link, to see the edit that was made on the 19th. It would seem that customers of his are still reporting that their packages are landing. Does anyone know if this is possible? Can law enforcement, following a bust, continue to ship product to customers in an attempt to gather more information?
Ultimately, you should NOT trust me and take a close look to see for yourself. In no way am I attempting to damage BrainCandy's reputation. My friend actually did receive what he ordered, and according to him he had a fantastic time with BrainCandy's product (I don't really care for LSD myself). The stealth was superb, shipping timely, etc. All around good vendor it would seem. It would be sad to see an outstanding vendor go down like this.
However, there are two major red flags at play, and until BrainCandy responds properly to ease concerns his account should be monitored carefully. Please exercise extreme caution and request that BrainCandy be forthright with us about this situation. If anyone has any further information, please share.
Thanks for taking the time to warn the community, I fucking love those diamonds and I probably would've bought a sheet if It wasn't for you. Thanks man
