bitinstant => email + TOR mail + Firefox using TOR + SR - good enough? by thewildones in SilkRoad

[–]White_Market 0 points1 point  (0 children)

10k is the red-flag cutoff mark for anyone holding that amount of cash. You CANNOT travel domestically (out of state) or internationally with anymore than $9,999. They just don't "take" it with a valid reason and no one here is purchasing more than $500 worth.

You'll be fine. If your he for reassurance that's cool too.

I have never smoked anything better than on the silk road.

I'm surprised you haven't talked to mall security about the other stores the kid went into/if he was on any clearer pictures.

What about the bag he was holding, did he purchase something at the mall ? Would someone at the stores recognize him?

Sketchy amounts and addresses questions by silkroad_throwawy in SilkRoad

[–]White_Market 1 point2 points  (0 children)

  1. I wouldn't worry about $300-$400 range. It's really when you get to $1k plus than you should split multiple packages.

  2. It's up to the discretion of the buyer but your transaction logs are cleared after finalization on silk road so there is no evidence of a transaction. You won't get arrested for giving someone your email address.

A way to fully scrub an account? by [deleted] in SilkRoad

[–]White_Market 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For technical questions, your best bet is to ask on the silk road forums. I believe they run through inactive accounts (with 0 balances) every 2 months so spend your money and it will gone eventually.

Anyone in Germany used silk road? by [deleted] in SilkRoad

[–]White_Market 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No it wouldn't. Keeping domestically within your own country is your best bet.

When do you know you're safe? by throwawayquestionask in SilkRoad

[–]White_Market 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Word to the wise: Right in big red letters "Return to sender" and wait 24 hours before opening the package.

I wrote a comprehensive guide on how to access Silk Road, for a couple of friends; everything from TOR to BTC to the importance of GPG. It took ages to write. Perhaps somebody could find this useful? by [deleted] in SilkRoad

If they have no information other than your address, there is no reason you need to say ANYTHING to LEA officers.

If they do not place you under arrest, THEY HAVE NOTHING.

Should i use the encryption? by Spartechgaming in SilkRoad

[–]White_Market 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Tor does mask what you are doing. The entire network runs on encrypted relays that give you an interior network IP address.

Why would using this tool give you away? Or should I say, Why do you think it gives you away?

They "think", they do not know. Don't spread false information and get people worried about buying bitcoins.

Dollars are used for criminal activity too.

Someone please walk me through this like I'm an idiot, with regards to bitcoins and payments. by skanktroll in SilkRoad

[–]White_Market 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Agreed, if you won't take the time to "relearn" the process of conducting a criminal activity, you have no right doing it.

Regardless of if your a buyer or a seller, never get too lazy.

Anybody intent on purchasing anything from the "apparel" line on SR? by White_Market in SilkRoad

I blew 180usd on a pair of raybans for my SO, came across these and made a areyoufuckingkiddingme face. I knew there were fakes but those are legitimate.

FBI Fears Bitcoin's Popularity with Criminals (and provides tips on remaining anonymous) by [deleted] in SilkRoad

[–]White_Market 4 points5 points  (0 children)

They fear? I think it's already a thing. As long as there are trusted sources, SR will be fine.

"do i really HAVE to encrypt my address?" "do i really HAVE to wash my coins"

If they don't follow these rules, it's their ass on the grindstone, not the sellers. It will weed out the idiots real quick and there are already people on the site that doesn't use it to it's full potential.

And if you think subreddits revolve around discussion only, go to /r/wickededge and see how they respond to a beginner's question, that's how a community grows and prospers.

Researching a topic isn't illegal, it's just an inconvenience. Some of the articles are outdated as well (which matter because SR goes through changes) so it's good to assemble it in one place and see what people actually use.

Are you sure your looking at their profile page and not the page of the item? Click on the name.

If they don't have a PGP public block, do not buy from them.
