I have no idea, but it don't seem good.

Gamera · 12-20-05, 10:11

Hmmm. I wonder why the US Department of Justice would have a website hosted by Geocities . . .

Also, I wonder why they mispelled "delt."

Whats an "extreme violation" I wonder - more than a regular violation?

More news as it develops . . .

12-20-05, 10:11

An obvious fake, and a poor one at that. They even have spam pop up on their free server. It is NOT a .gov address. They also spelled 'dealt' as 'delt'. Stupid morons. The rest of their site is articles that were downloaded from the real doj site. You can see the real doj site at www.justice.gov

In that case, it could be our government! lol!

12-20-05, 11:56

Yeah, if you go to shroomtalk.com it says:

Notice to all shroomtalk family members

it looks like we were hacked by some loser

we are in process of fixing , things should be back to normal soon.

sorry for any hassle or paranoia this has caused but the info displayed was totally fake

do not worry, it will be fixed soon.

from shroomtalk and mushbox, sales@mushbox.com

Oh and PS!

we would like to thank ducky for their adobe skills,
and would recommend that this never happens again.

12-20-05, 13:27

is this what some morons do with their time..?
damn...i guess some peeps just get way to bored...lol

Lazlo · 12-20-05, 13:33

I know! lol! If your going to put all this time and effort in to hacking a site, why not hack in to a site worth while. I've got some MVA problems dude! Call me...

dizzydank · 12-20-05, 16:19

damn shame how people got to fuck with people to get off. i wouldnt worry about a damn thing. and if it where true im sure there is more ip addresses than they could ever handle. and the spelling is first rate

lmao

slp · 12-20-05, 18:08

Yeah........it did sound sort of "winnie" to me. And the picture at that Govt. site.....that guy sure did not look very dangerous....grin..Thanks. Good to know it was a hacker. slp/fmrc

Hippie3 · 12-21-05, 09:09

yeah, bullshit it seems.

mindovermycelia · 12-21-05, 21:23

fuckers, probably some competitor. I couldn't even find the act they refer to in the US Code at all.

spacecowboy · 12-21-05, 21:53

dead_diver · 12-22-05, 08:38

Looks like it's tied in with another ploy by Zango to install one of their search engines?! I sure as hell know the .gov wouldn't ask me to install a search engine to proceed. Fuck Zango. Those assholes should be shot.

dead_diver · 12-22-05, 08:46

From the people of Zango. Ya just gotta love these guys :P

encapsulated · 04-19-06, 05:23

first off the beginning of this page had me freaked out as fuck b/c the place i get my spores from comes in a box that says innersight trading on it and second of all the amazing racist is funny as hell but he will end up being killed by someone he is messing with and saying his racist shit too.
I know this post was put up awhile ago but are you guys sure or at least pretty sure that this whole thing is bull shit b/c if they logged my ip adress and and shit and i have been ordering cubensis(sp.) spores(and growing them too) i really dont want to be having to worry about this whole situation thanks alot in advanvce

VPR · 04-19-06, 14:41

Their site got hacked...it was a hoax.

mindovermycelia · 04-19-06, 14:45

It's best to stick with the sponsors here

encapsulated · 04-19-06, 17:51

i know it is best to stick with the sponsers here but i have already ordered from them and the syringes were unviable and i had to send for replacements and they are still not here and that is what had me sooo worried

BuckarooBanzai · 04-19-06, 22:49

LEOs don't warn you that they are gathering evidence...

apokalypse · 04-20-06, 02:51

cjb.net is a redirecting service that is used for sending people to other websites. clicking the link just brings you to cjb.net, because they deactivated that site.

Hippie3 · 04-20-06, 08:59

heard lots of bad reports on innersight & their affiliates

mindovermycelia · 04-20-06, 09:41

i wouldn't worry, just steer clear, that was a long time ago anyway

encapsulated · 04-21-06, 03:44

Hey hippie what kind of bad things have you heard about innersight trading and their affiliates?I would really like to know if I have anything to worry about seeing as how I am awaiting an order from them.

Hippie3 · 04-21-06, 06:09

eh, the usual we hear,
long delivery times, unresponsive to emails and inferior products.
i've never personally tried them,
just going by what i hear here and there...

encapsulated · 04-21-06, 23:06

Well hippie I can tell you that I have ordered from them twice before with no problems.However this most recent time I ordered from them(I ordered 4 hawaiin syringes) it took a while to get my order processed and shipped to me(longer than it should have).When they finally arrived I nocked up about 30 brf jars ala pf tek and it took over a month to see any mycelia in any of the jars,and when I did see mycelia in the jars only three out of the 30 or so had any mycelia in them at all and soon after I spotted the mycelia it turned green.So all in all to say the least I am deffinately going to send the rest of my business for as long as I am affiliated with this great hobby to your sponsors not only b/c they seem like great people but b/c if they weren't reliable and trustable people they would not be on this great site as sponsors.
