Title: Dumb newbie here with a question: Am I screwed?
Post by: Damoclese on April 06, 2013, 02:06 pm
Hi folks, I am excited to finally join SR and it seems like a cool group of helpful people here on the newbie thread.  So I am pleading to you folks with this issue: After reading multiple posts & guides I decided to make my first order.  When I placed my order and it asked for a receiving address, I put in the info without encrypting using the PGP keys.  When I read the buying guide, it stated that the personal info is encrypted BUT for that extra layer of protection, you should encrypt yourself.  After reading many forum posts everybody seems to use the PGP.  Soooooo I am wondering since I didn't do this with my first order, am I screwed? Thanks in advance!

You're not the only one that doens't encrypt his address... It's more secure and everyone should use PGP but you're not that screwed if you didn't. Try to use it in the future though..

PGP is highly recommended but not essential

you should assume everyone is the police including SR admin

so minimize your risk by using PGP

check out PGP club

you should consider making a new account after this order

when you get your order take a red sharpie and mark it return to sender and leave it lying around for a week or so

then move it out of your house

but hey maybe i'm just paranoid

if the vendor is well known and has good feedback you should be less concerned

I will send you my address via PGP. Since it's encrypted you know it's safe -so just forward me the package when you get it.
