I was scammed on the darknet

This is a story i am typing up for a friend who got scammed on the darknet.

So i wanted to make a big order for a festival i was going to, i had never been scammed on dream market before and was willing to risk a reasonable amount of money.

The Vendors name was 'Simplythebest' he seemed professional, had thousands of successful transactions and his products had some amazing reviews.

He had an equally impressive feedback score which is an average of the feedback that a vendor is given by his customers.

My order consisted of 3 grams of ketamine:

2 Grams of cocaine of which the advert was taken down before i started finding photos:

And 50 Yellow owl ecstasy pills:

Shortly after making the order, the vendor sent me a message. It said that if i 'Finalized Early' (meaning to give over all of the money immediately and not be somewhat protected if he were to choose to scam me) then he would send me extra gear on top of what i ordered. Naturally me being a greedy little shit i graciously obliged. I wish, i had had the presence of mind to get some photos then. By the time i found out id been scammed the messages were already gone :(

We did converse a little in the 37 days this mess played out until he was banned a few days go. I was not the only person he was doing this to. I couldn't even guess how much money they made. The worst part about it is that they can just open a new account with a new name and start all over again.

Only lost about £250 but losing anything hurts and i'll probably still be angry at my greed and stupidity for a while.
Still, it is a lesson learnt
