Worlds Dumbest Darknet Admin Gets Busted

In this video I discuss how pharaoh (real name Lin Rui Siang) the administrator of Incognito Market who just 2 months ago, exit scammed and tried extorting the platforms users, is now in police custody and potentially facing life in prison. I go over the OPSEC mistakes he made from using illegal BTC for personal use, to his miserable attempts to hide in plain sight.

If you acknowledge the risks for what they are and mitigate them your life may not be quite as comfortable or familiar but thems the breaks.

They were trying to extort users? I'm shocked! Whoever would have thought that criminals would do criminal things?

[@rashira9610]

I mean you'd think it would be that cut and dry but think about WHO he was extorting. Wasn't just the buyers, many of who are just common junkies without much ability to do anything about it, but the VENDORS as well which, while SOME may have just been average joes growing weed in their backyard and chem students synthesizing MDMA and LSD then selling it, but MOST were probably cartels. NOT the kind of people you wanna play with. You gotta be a special kind of stupid to try and run not just an exit scam on cartels, but full on EXTORT them under threat of forwarding their info to LEO's, and think they'll just pay up and move on. I mean Cartels have ended people for less, and have their own tech wizards to track people down. This dude pretty much committed assisted unalive with extra steps. Really bad move.

[@AT32143]

Considering this is the first market to extort their customer base in the decade+ of markets existing, id say it’s pretty surprising

[@mobiuscoreindustries]

Actually it is pretty surprising since that entire environnement is built and has to rely on trust and reputation. Gangs and cartels of the real world have politicians and police in their back pocket and can use the threat of violence to have their way. This does not work on the web, there really the only thing that spurs people to even use you is your track record. So despite it being manned by people that very much disprove of the law, all of the less reliable get culled very early, and those who remain do so only on the back of maintaining their track record. Until whatever alphabet entity decides that enough is enough and they had enough fun for the year.

It depends on if the guys he scammed/snitched on are in his prison, or if he makes bail and gets out on the streets, I kinda doubt both. Still, he's a twig with a snitch name.

[@LarsLarsen77]

They actually have much better customer service since it's a much wider market for both buyers and sellers, so they have to compete for your business. Your buddy knows you only have one option: him.

[@jetgdvsdfgd]

The very fact that it is an open market place with unfiltered user reviews and discussion forums means that it is actually safer than buying "goods" off the street. Been using darknet markets for 10+ years, clean product every time.

[@PolumbiusTheThird]

@@jetgdvsdfgd whats your name

[@Angel-Azrael]

Unregulated pharmaceutical means drugs. As a cannabis user for over 15 years I can assure you these markets are the way to go, in countries where weed is not legal. The greatest benefit is you chose what you buy, and it works like any legal site, with reputation and buyers reviews. But it can go wrong some times. Your stuff might not arrive in the post, then depends on the seller policy, usually they don't refund 100%. You can also be scammed by the seller, happend to me some times, releasing the money before trying the stuff, then theres no way to get it back. When Apollon market exit scammed I bought 900$ of hash the day before, seller didn't even got to see the order. It was more than my monthly salary at the time

One question, master. If this person was using Tor to realize this searches is most likely his PC was intervened by the federals? cuz the other reason in the case that he was using tor is that the 3 servers that make the request were intervened? thx for ur answer

[@GnomeEU]

I think it's really hard to not get caught. Never doing a Google search related to your website? That sounds rough. Eventually you will slip up. Never reusing a nickname, an account etc. Always using a vpn and tor.

[@MrKristian252]

It's much easier to say after the fact about these opsec mistakes. None of these seem to directly correlate easily from his secret identity, to his public identity. It's rather more the reverse way around. I would say that because he pissed off these darknet kind of people, that they most likely contributed the most drawing the connections. @Seytonic explains the opsec mistakes better. This video seem more blown up than it is.

[@BlueJDev]

I agree seytonics video was good, no mention here about the exit strategy being covered as an April fools joke - I suppose it must've been if no-one was actually doxxed. Bet there was no refunds for those that paid up though... But he was begging to be caught with all the mistakes he made, imo many of them would be classed as D-web 101 lessons he clearly skipped! Like he literally gave away his transaction details on his own account that related to the naughty account, that ain't no breadcrumb it's the whole loaf... Sounds like he didn't even have separate devices for his personal / "business"
