Do police pose as steroid users on here?

[40plusnewbie]

There are no need for feds/dea to be here. Feds/DEA have budgets that allow them to pay informants once they 'flip' them and put them on the payroll as ongoing informants AKA rats.

They wouldn't bother doing this to a user, but they would to suppliers at a certain level if they have ins with people higher up the food chain so to speak.

If they do it with those other drugs why wouldn't they do it with steroids? Feds/DEA only do hit and run undercover work unless they are cultivating a relationship with someone REALLY big in which case they will go undercover on a p/t or f/t basis.

I'm not saying they don't brouse these sites looking for info, but all it takes is for them to bust one well known member who wants to avoid jail and is willing to turn rat for them. If people will do it in real life and turn rat on people they know personally and see on a regular basis and consider themselves friends with, why wouldn't someone do it when they only know people via online personas?

So that's a que to be even more paranoid than you were before.

The good news is they are only looking to bust people higher up the food chain, not lower down the food chain. So if they get someone connected to a ug on the hook they could care less about the people they sell to but want suppliers.

well gee they didnt look undercover when they snatched up one of the trainers from my gym. it was a dea(drug enforcement agency) agent and a postal inspector. dont believe everything u here about budgets and so on. how much money does it take to log on from ur desk and just start fishing. ive had pms from guys in my area asking what gym i work out at so we can get a workout together. guys dont ask shit like that. he also told me that while there another agent was asking for some of the logo we use cause he thought he found a source on some message board. and he must have cooperated cause he had a trunk full of shit and only got probation.

So he signed for a package with steroids in it, or took possession of said package, in the presence of a postal inspector? That's not very smart.

Cops can 'snatch up' anyone they want for reasonable suspicion. Making charges stick (i.e. having actual evidence like possession) is a different story. Cops can't go into your house without a warrant.

Tell me the specific circumstances of the case. Also, was he stupid enough to open his mouth?

I don't know much about steroids, but I know a few things about how to aviod getting arrested and also about how to avoid getting convicted.

4 (and only) things necessary for the perfect crime.

1. Do it alone.
2. Tell no one.
3. Be seen by no one.
4. Leave no tracks.

this is what ive been preaching. the harder u make make it for them the more they mess with other members. everyone can talk about rights and warrants but they can screw up your life for a little while. and even if you just get questioned are u still gonna order from that source next time. and this particular case was about 2 yrs ago before gear grinder and raw deal. it is worse now. also im sure he gave some sources up cause he did no jail and lost about 50 lbs.

If you are SURE, his picture and information belong here:

www.whosarat.com

It used to be a free site but now requires membership. Some people even have actual documents posted under their rat profiles showing they signed documents implicating others in a crime.

Freedom of Information Act and all....
