I just realized we could have played this real hard. Pm everyone on here. Start a thread about how great the place is. Doofus that runs that place makes enough money from enough places to get convicted of multiple international fraud cases. I mean sure there would be innocent bystanders but the same applies to bombs and we use those for really bad people.

It just surprises me how dumb these prices are. This rip off artist could be making far more if he simply listed Esoterica and such and actual retail prices. $10 a bag is like a bigass neon blinking BULLSHIT sign. And it nets him less cash. I guess reasonably intelligent people don't get into this line of work.
Well, whomever stumbles across that site will probably be ordering a quantity of product, thinking "hey, I can flip this on a particular forum and make a killing..." Meanwhile, the scammer pockets the money, posts an empty envelope with a tracking number to a UPS store in the city you're in...

They've got more important things to do besides fleshing out their website... like robbin'. Thug life - Wu Tang!

This address is literally a personal residence on a backroad of a small town in the middle of nowhere in Texas.

And this site is telling me they are stocked to gills with lowest-price-anywhere Esoterica and Samuel Gawith.

I guess they're banking on the old adage, "A sucker is born every minute."
This address seems familar to me. I wonder if this is the infamous thief Kyle Black. Old timers will remember that guy, and all the people and companies he ripped off some years ago.

If it's too good to be true, it probably is... puffy

Sorry you got burned...
I saw that site a month or 2 back. Between the borrowed logo and them having everything any of us could ever want but can never find in stock, I decided they must be fake. But yeah, that seems like a lot of work to hustle pipe tobacco $. Dude might as well get a real job doing website design.

Regarding how much this swindler nets from each victim, remember the profits accrued from the Numbers Racket, and how small the amounts gathered from each participant are.
