Incognito Darknet Market Exit Scams

Hey, everyone. Welcome back to the channel. Today, we're getting into a topic that's both urgent and necessary for anyone navigating the darknet, especially those considering engaging with Incognito Market. Today's discussion revolves around the critical examination and unfolding drama surrounding potential exit scams, mainly focusing on the recent developments with Incognito Market.

During the Christmas season of 2023, I highlighted the suspicious activities hinting at Incognito Market's possible exit scam. It's a situation that warrants caution, especially for those thinking about monetary transactions on this platform. This episode aims not just to narrate the events but to arm you with the knowledge to navigate these treacherous waters with more caution.

In exploring this topic, I touch upon the broader implications of exit scams within the darknet market ecosystem, the unsettling trend of increasing darknet market revenues, and the paradoxical stability amidst apparent instability. These elements paint a picture of a dynamic, albeit risky, digital underworld where billions of dollars change hands, unnoticed by many, yet profoundly impacting those involved.

Furthermore, I get into personal anecdotes, including my reactions to community feedback and the diverse opinions surfacing on platforms like Dread. This discussion extends beyond the specifics of Incognito Market, delving into the ethical quandaries and operational hazards inherent to darknet markets. We ponder the allure of greed, the pressures on market administrators, and the broader implications for digital privacy and security.

Your engagement and insights have been phenomenal, shaping this channel into a vibrant community of critical thinkers and digital explorers. As we delve into these dark corners of the internet, your safety and awareness remain my top priorities. So, let’s continue this journey together, exploring the nuances of digital anonymity, market dynamics, and the ever-evolving landscape of the darknet.

I didn’t expect them to exit scam They had their own little ecosystem (forum, news and market) I guess they saw the rising bitcoin price and decided to exit

ASAP was the last market to bow out gracefully

Great information and explanations about how things happened. Keep up the great work!

The best ever for me was Tor Market 2019-2023 ~March. Admin said that they were rebuilding the market with a better fee structure (BTC fees were getting hard to regulate with a busier BTC network and customers were often paying the wrong amount) but never returned. They had said the market would be back in 3-6 months.

Yet - it wasn't an exit scam. I think admin must have thought they have enough crypto to retire, and did so gracefully. Sadly they haven't been back.

I love this channel. So glad I ran into your Defcon talk.

I died a little inside when they mentioned people trusting auto encryption in their exit scam note. Not because of me, but for anyone stupid or lazy enough to not have the extra OPSEC of encrypting their own NAMES and ADDRESSES themselves… been out of the game for a while but peoples ignorance really never ceases to amaze me.

Markets have been especially volatile feeling since a bit before the 2nd coming of AlphaBay... Not to discount the times before with WSM, dream, hansa, AB1, Silk Road (and the mimicks), etc... etc...

Now, with AI it is not without reason the crack to such PGP cryptology will come sooner than "eventually" which opens up the whole history of the DNM that was able to be seized. Interesting history and times to watch.

Could you maybe please make a video maybe about tor deanonimization ?

Ive seen a few interesting approaches with traffic shaping and also stuff like server error requests or redirections that lead to server IPs being leaked etc.

I use incognito mode all the time I used it today how can they scam???

[peterRobinson]

im guessing the'for sale' value of this market is massively more than this little hustle will return them.
The big playas on those sites have been in the game since day1 sonce farmers markets, since BMR since SR1 im guessing they always use opsec and the money catchment from this hustle is comparably tiny compared to the revenue they would make by operating another month or selling the market.

Hello Sam, how are you? I recently saw your presentation at last year's defcon and I really liked it. Can you explain better how the yagi antenna part works and how you connected it to the computer so you could connect to wifi 1km away? I think it would make a good video, Thanks!

There goes the 7 dollars I had in my wallet ):

If the admins are ever doxxed they're screwed. The government would want to come after them but so would the vendors. The vendors aren't people you want to double cross. Theyve only placed a target on themselves and if they slipped up once At some point it will be noticed.

It would be interesting to assess if there in any correlation between an greater likely hood of darknet market exit scams and an increased value in the market cap of cryptocurrency.

Unscheduled emotional moment....wiping away moonshine tears..

After losing a few hundred to Empire market I wised up to never leave money lying around in the wallet

Are you still going to do a video on exit scams in general and how to spot one?

[cbqrdtk]

I just found your channel, new sub. I have two questions for you.
1) Is it even possible to expose civil rights violations or the corruption of officers in prison with little evidence other than it was witnessed by an inmate? Theis was a few years ago, and the inmate is now a public citizen.
2) The current AI Chatbots online that the public has access to are both censored and restricted from performing many various actions. Are there any AI bots on the Darknet, private or public, that are 100% unrestricted? Even if they are pay only. My thought is this, Nation-states worldwide that are developing AI have unrestricted use to their own AI's, not to mention companies, like google and so on as well. And so should the public. If we don't have the same tools that they do this can get very unfair very quick.

getting phished feels like a rite of passage but it shouldn’t be. there was a period of time when it felt like every link was a phishing link on the surface web. i remember getting phished when WHM was big. really got to do away with that shit and archetyp is a huge step in the right direction. they seem like WHM but maybe even more improved. it’s impressive.

[anniehubert-vu]

love the vids, i really think bitcoin being so high has to have had a factor.

[dozir]

Man, I didn't know they existed till now. I guess a blessing in disguise. Hopefully a clone pops up
