buying gear online??

[8secondride]

I was thinking of buying gear from someone I met online and was wondering how safe that really is? I wouldn't be buying but 1 or 2 bottles. Is it possible for law enforcement to be posing as a source?

 

[newbiebynature]

sure its possible...but its also possible its a scam...

How would I be able to tell a scam? I checked his references but they could all be working together to scam people? How bad is the law by the way if that happens?

dude is it a website? or just someone who contacted you?

someone i met on here actually

 

[Jon79]

dude fuck that....

 

[Jon79]

the only reason i say that is b/c if it is someone that saw one of your posts and started talking to you telling you they could get you shit and they want to be your best friend. maybe i am wrong but do they have a website?

this is the way to go:
Secure e-mail a mod (open up a hushmail email account), and ask him for the references regarding your source. For that purpose you need at least the name or website or email of your source.

I can't get a mod to reply - who should I be emailing?

A Mod in the steroids forum - somebody who has a secure email in their sig. Dont PM them! Thats not secure and will probably piss them off and they wont want to help you.

Makes no difference if they have a website or not

I was approached by some one in this forum.
I didn't do my homework and I got screwed for $280.00 cash.

Seems like it was your fault, it doesnt get more obvious that that

Anyone who contacts YOU trying to sell you something is most likely looking to scam you....stay clear!

 

[Jeremy138x]

Yeah, the guy who got thisforumrots's money is an assface. He pretty much acts like your friend and gives you guidance on stuff, then after you talk to him a couple times, is when he offers to hook you up. He also had like 7 references that all recommended him in reply emails. I think he probably just set all of those email addresses up and they were all him actually. Learn from other peoples mistakes. Always source check, and very thoroughly.

George Spellwin's eBooks provide all the information a person needs to know about a variety of fitness related subjects.

When I first came here, I bought a group of the books at a very fair price and received Plat Membership in the package.

Over the last year, I confirmed the info, used the info and have never had a "problem".

People are cheated out of many times the money these books cost. The info would prevent the problem.

Sounds fishy dude.

When checking out websites I would do a whois search first and see where the site is registered. I'd stay away from any paks, chins and anyhing from russia. Look for the ones who are doing hrt. Even though they're illegal too,.... they still operate like they are and usually have real phone numbers to call. I'm on my third one. They seem to chnge names and or move as often as I go to the gym. I gues you need to stay two steps ahead of dirty harry all the time. Ask them where they get their shit from, is it compounded etc. The biggest problm I have i finding one that stays operational for more than 2 months and keeping local 5-0 away. I've had three packages snagged in 8 months...... 2400 freekin bucks! I got popped only once this year for a bs misdemeanor possession charge. Got it plead down but am on 6 mos. pro.

Knock off the "PM me for the name" stuff. You want to 'out' a scammer, talk to a mod and we'll do it right.

PM is NOT the way.

I would think this wouldn't be an issue because it could easily turn to be an issue of Entrapment. key word "induced".

Follow Digger's advice and you will be all set.

Like everyone says, if someone contacts YOU, they are NOT legit!!! Legit sources WILL NOT contact some newbie. They are selling illegal drugs and they do NOT want to offer them to an undercover police officer. The retail law of supply and demand works well here. Steroids are in high demand so the legit sources DO NOT have to go "fishing" for new customers. They will get all the business they need from repeat business and referrals.

USE SOME COMMON SENSE and you will be fine. My first day on this site three people contacted me saying they wanted to be my "source". Like you, I was a newbie and didn't know any better and I ALMOST made a mistake. AFter doing some research and talking to some vets and mods (THROUGH a secure e-mail like hushmail) I was steered in the right direction and SAVED a ton of money.
