Hey everyone,

We’ve discovered an active scammer impersonating the vendor [Rocky / pharmadaddy] (and possibly others) in an effort to steal your money. Please read and share:


What’s happening​

  • Fake emails & DMs: The scammer is contacting buyers using addresses that look almost—but not exactly—like the real vendor’s.
  • “Too‑good‑to‑be‑true” deals: They quote attractive prices, push for quick payment, then disappear.
  • Recent losses: At least one buyer has already been hit for $650.

How to protect yourself​

  1. VERIFY ADDRESSES:
    • Check every character of the sender’s email. Small changes (extra letters, wrong domain, weird punctuation) = red flag.
  2. REQUEST BTC ADDRESS THROUGH DBG DIRECT MESSAGE ONLY:
    • A legitimate vendor will always confirm their wallet address inside the forum’s secure DM system. No exceptions.
  3. MATCH PROFILES:
    • Compare join date, reputation, and PGP key (if used) with the vendor’s official thread.
  4. TRUST, BUT VERIFY:
    • If anything feels off—prices, tone, urgency—pause and ask publicly in the thread or via a second, known‑good contact method.
  5. REPORT SUSPICIOUS CONTACT:
    • Forward fake emails/DMs to forum mods so they can ban the accounts and warn others.

Stay safe out there. If you’ve been approached by anyone claiming to be me (or another trusted vendor) but refusing to confirm through DBG DM, assume it’s a scam and report it immediately.

Spread the word by bumping this thread or PM’ing your contacts. The more eyes on this, the fewer people get burned.

I was the one hit for $650 and I will say both times they reached out to me to say “Thanks stevie for your review I appreciate
Looking forward on your next order.”

Jess and Rocky are both usually genuinely nice people so I didn’t think twice. The “o” in Rock was a 0 but the whole thing was in caps so harder to tell.

I still can’t find a difference in Jess’ email and the fake. I’m thinking the l in Elba was a capital i. l vs I looks identical. Luckily that time I actually reached out to the email chain I already had with her. I’m dumb for falling for the first. I know.
 
Let me guess your email is steviejay88@proton... your DBG username and email address should be completely different. Scammers will try anything and this must be one of their wicked ways to find members to scam

  1. M @ Mokachin0: @hotdog45 appreciated ! Enjoy and pay it forward one day!
  2. MOD @ MOD: Hi All, It's been long. Hope all are doing well
  3. H @ hotdog45: Sending love to all of you. I hope everyone is doing well. This is an awesome community, I am very happy to be a part of
  4. A @ Aarfgh: correct, but it's nothing to write home about unfortunately
  5. Steviejay88 @ Steviejay88: @otbotf I believe you need to get it from an admin
  6. O @ otbotf: how do i find the password to the locked pages?
  7. H @ hotdog45: @Mokachin0 thank you. Truly those words are not enough, but it's all I have at the moment. You are an amazing person.
  8. M @ Mokachin0: Search vet bills if your a member who needs help with vet care or basic staples for your pet, admins will verify I’m extending a real offer
  9. xenxra @ xenxra: @Steviejay88 if there's one major takeaway i've gained from all the indictments against onion farmers it's that you should never rely on server-side encryption for these kinds of things. please refer to hansa as a case example.
  10. A @ Aarfgh: @Steviejay88 absolutely my man, good question
  11. Steviejay88 @ Steviejay88: @Aarfgh II just want everyone to stay safe
  12. Steviejay88 @ Steviejay88: @Aarfgh yea I don’t want to start anything
  13. A @ Aarfgh: @Steviejay88 so as not to stir any pots, I'm not an expert on this particular forum software however I know natively it doesn't. that doesn't mean a plug-in wasn't used of some sort, if it's even possible. check out the dev console in your browser and poke around now you've got me curious
  14. Steviejay88 @ Steviejay88: @Aarfgh i didn’t think so. Thanks! There maybe should be a warning or something tho because the way it says protected DMs is kind of misleading
  15. A @ Aarfgh: @Steviejay88 Xenforo does not natively support encrypted DMs.
  16. Steviejay88 @ Steviejay88: Are the DMs here encrypted anyone know?
  17. xenxra @ xenxra: it's not so much about the merit it went up or down x percent in y time moreso just where it's at in relation to broader market structure
  18. Telp @ Telp: Cool off. Sorry for the messages, keep hitting the fucking go button
  19. Telp @ Telp: In a week. Makes sense to
  20. Telp @ Telp: @xenxra its up 20%
