Yea, some duchebag decides to pm me saying ,.."you live in New England, do you grow you're own mushrooms,I need some help".
What the fuck is this shit.Why me of all these members here on the forums does this person choose me.I just don't trust it. Does anyone have any imput on this situation?Does the lea do this type of crap or what.Maybee I am just paranoid ,I have no reason to be,But I don't know this person,and he only has one post and has been a member since "08".

Don't worry about it. I can see how it would sketch you out but just ignore the PM and do what A_R said.

If they try to buy drugs via PM and you don't know them well, forward the PM to a moderator so we can ban them. We probably ban a lot of cops this way.
If they try to buy drugs via PM and they are your trusted friend, tell them that its not cool to trade drugs via PM. Both parties will be banned if we find out and its best to use some other communications method such as hushmail or gmail + gpg.

Alan, thanks for the feedback.I do find it to be a little on the shady side.Like I mentioned above,I already sent him back a pm stating that I do not do anything illegal but am a science and microbiology buff,...then asked what he needed help w/ exactly. Of course ,I got no reply back after that.Straight up shady shit.To the rest of you who gave feedback,...thank you , I appreciated it very much. One more Question,....Should I mention this persons screen name , just in case this happens to someone else who should have something to worry about?

> Yea, some duchebag decides to pm me saying ,.."you live in New England, do you grow you're own mushrooms,I need some help".
When I get these type of questions, I politely inform the person that what they are asking for help with is most likely illegal where they live and suggest that they consult with a lawyer to verify that they are not breaking the law before proceeding. I also remind them that the Shroomery has a world wide audience; that we discuss many different types of mushrooms, some of which are illegal in some places; and that we do not encourage or condone the breaking of local laws.

yes, you are being a spazz. you think the cops would send you spore syringes just to wait a month or two to bust you for them on the chance that you took the time to grow them out?
thats the definition of entrapment.

Legal terms such as: mushroom spores = legal .........marijuana seeds = illegal.MJ seeds being sent through mail was probable cause enough to kick down his door.Spore syringe's are for microscopic use and some people may abuse that, as in anything else known to man that can be abused /will be abused.
