Swedens biggest vendor busted

NSFWPSA / Article

http://www.sydsvenskan.se/2016-07-15/atal-for-storskalig-narkotikahandel

Summary of the article:

  • Swedens biggest vendor during 2015 (according to the police)

  • Two males, 42 and 25 year old

  • Customs got suspicious of packages containing drugs

  • The packages were sent to fake companies and delivered to mailboxes in different areas of Gothenburg

  • When the 42 year old was arrested while emptying the mailbox he was carrying a small amount of drugs, a gun and 160 000 SEK in cash

  • Operated out of a factory building where computers, drugs and an automatic weapon was found

  • According to the prosecutor they have handled more than 6 200 deals worth 7 million SEK

Here's an interesting part

"The customers, which were located both domestically and abroad, aren't affected by the case"

  • "We'll have to deal with the customers another time", says chief prosecutor Jonas Almström.

It's speculated to be Erkran, which indeed was one of the biggest domestic sellers on Flugsvamp, but was active on other sites aswell.

Edit: It's now confirmed by a reliable source that it is indeed Erkran, a vendor who was active on Flugsvamp, Evolution, Agora and Nucleus. He got busted back in January.

Sounds like the guy had a few different things going on and that was just part of his day I bet he shit a brick when he seen the police

atomragnarlelOP•

I guess he/they were under tremendous pressure and they were perhaps worried about the wrong people finding out about their business. Erkran was a vendor who was active during quite a few years, it's really unfortunate.

that explains the gun, but the money? it sounds like this guy is going to be missed by the community. shame :(

Whenever I see questions like this I really start to believe this sub-reddit is filled with 15 year old white American kids.

Hey! I don't know if you realize but when you're an online vendor you're doing something called drug dealing. You are constantly moving around with large amounts of cash and narcotics therefore a target for people looking to rob you out your loot. Most of the time you're looking over your shoulder for rival dealers from different sets and not the police.

Welcome to the real world kids!

Ah! I was right indeed.

You're European? Well Europe doesn't have felonies, idiot. Typical caucasian American teen.

Have your friend pick up the drugs.

Hmm..., yes send your friend to pick up your work worth tens of thousands of euros. The lifeblood of your business.

You obviously trust him enough not to run away with it or keep his mouth silent when he gets arrested right.

Haha! You know, I am willing to bet such a big vendor was dealing drugs on the streets before he moved on to the darknet.

That sounds more like a 15 year old white kid than most things i read in this sub.

Oh I thought you corrected the dollars to euro because you thought Sweden had euros.

What a shame. Always hurts to see a vendor fall in the hands of the pigs. What did this guy sold?

A little bit of everything, but mostly benzos and cannabis.

Whoever downvoted you for this is an asshat. I find the darkweb very intemidating and difficult to navigate. Haters.

read the wiki, superlist, and everything else then

AccntNmbr4•

I have. I'm working on it. Bitcoins, pgp, and linux are not intuitive to use imo.

genericmetahub•

PGP doesn't require linux, you can use gnupg. BTC is incredibly intuitive nowadays especially with the convenience of sites like circle and LBC, not to mention bitcoin ATMs.

There's a subreddit dedicated to this called r/DarkNetMarketsNoobs . Of course it's intimidating and "difficult to navigate" if you can't even put in the basic effort of googling "grams darknet" and finding this https://www.deepdotweb.com/grams-search-darknet-marketplaces/

No. You are really complicating things. German Batman's parents are 100% swedish and Batman is 100% German. He was raised in Sweden because, again, his parents are Swedish and live there.

I have often wondered if the feedback review system is a pretty good indicator for the law to reverse engineer how many orders someone is doing and look for mailboxes with similar patterns of outgoing mail or even geographically similar mailboxes where the statistical average is over by the amount their feedback equals.

You would think there would be statistical averages on all this stuff and if a vendor is large enough then they would likely have an impact significant enough to make a dent on the long term averages of mail that is outbound from whatever locations they use.

If he had killed someone he would only get 5 years in Swedish hotel prison. But since he was dealing drugs, he'll likely get an upward of 10 years in Swedish hotel prison.

If he was from Somalia, he likely would have just been given more welfare money.

Can I just emigrate to Sweden and get free money?

What country are you from?

If you are from anywhere in the third world, yes. Even if you're in a place like Mexico or Brazil, you can say you are gay and that your home country can't protect you from people committing hate crimes or something similar.

It really, really helps if you aren't white. The darker you are, the easier it will be for you to get temporary residence and something around 1-2 thousand euros a month.

Why tf does an Internet dealer have an automatic weapon? Are guns legal in Sweden?

It doesn´t seem that you know much about drug trafficking.You know...an internet drug dealer doesn´t get his drugs from AMAZON etc. If you want to know how big drug dealers work you have to BECOME the big drug dealer.

Fortunately the amount of Swiss cheese produced in Sweden is vanishingly small. However I am worried about the global black market for ikea products with this vendor gone.
