The eBay for drugs: 'Silk Road' website allows UK drug users to buy cocaine and heroin by mail order from all over the world
The drugs are being disguised inside packages and being innocently delivered by Royal Mail
Silk Road is known as the eBay of the drugs world and allows people to find the best price and also rate the people who sold it to them
Royal Mail say they have security procedures in place to intercept this post
The site has £14m annual sales worldwide

Class A drugs are being delivered to homes across the UK by Royal Mail to customers who have bought them online like they were using Amazon or eBay, it has been revealed.
Ecstasy, heroin, cannabis and cocaine are all on offer on the website Silk Road, and users say it is ‘easier and safer’ than buying drugs from dealers on street corners.
UK shoppers can choose their illegal drugs with the click of a mouse and then wait for a neatly packaged parcel, with drugs disguised inside, to fall through their letter box.

And there's more........

Transactions

Buyers and sellers conduct all transactions with Bitcoin, a crypto-currency that can provide strong anonymity.[11] Although the Bitcoin's exchange rate may fluctuate greatly in short periods of time, most of the prices on Silk Road are pegged to the United States dollar.

An administrator claims "over 99% of all transactions conducted within the escrow system are completed to the satisfaction of both buyer and seller, or a mutually agreed upon resolution is found.

Seems fair enough to me............I don't know why the Daily Hail is getting upset over someone setting up and running a successful business


Now, what was that web address again

It's called Silk Road.
It's a bit odd though.
When I registered someone immediately killed my avatar.
And it costs a twentyer to register.

Are you inferring that Postman has something to do with it

However, the site's operators prohibit goods or services intended to harm others, such as stolen credit card numbers, counterfeit currency, personal info, assassinations, weapons of mass destruction, and materials used to make such weapons

At least they have a conscience and leave the really dodgy stuff to the CIA.
One nuke,still in box,never been used...starting bid 99p.

...and how would assassinations work anyway?
Would you just buy an assassination credit redeemable against any target?

"Sussex Police said they were completely unaware of the practise and had ‘no intelligence’ on dealers using encrypted websites to supply illegal drugs by post." - typical 'Police Intelligence'

Obviously, Royal Mail is the source of all evil and wrong-doing in Great Britain, if not the world. Thankfully the Daily Mail has once again taken time out from its busy schedule to point this out.
