Hey community,

now this one hits close to home: The @flightrcs team got taken down by major LE forces in multiple raids happening last week.
This is very sad news for all of us but also, unfortunately, an opportunity to learn from mistakes and grow from it.
I am in my thoughts with all arrested individuals and can only imagine what it must be like to be in their skin right now :(

The forces involved have mainly been: DEA, Europol, Lithuanian Police, Greek Police

The https://the-frcs.is/ forum remains closed as of right now.

For more information please read those articles:

https://hellas.postsen.com/business...-group-that-manufactured-synthetic-drugs.html
https://hellas.postsen.com/business/510124/Thessaloniki-They-were-making-synthetic-cannabis-and-sending-it-by-post-to-Europe-and-America.html
https://hellas.postsen.com/business...annabis-sending-it-to-Europe-and-America.html

After they have build their legacy over a long period of time, it was 8 packages that got seized in Lithuania 2 months ago that lead to their downfall. 8 packages out of probably many thousands, let that sink in and understand that it does really only take small bottlenecks to take down your whole operation.

Now that can only tell us about a few things I can only estimate at this point:

1. Bad OpSec for those 8 packages like fingerprints, DNA or any information that could lead to their vendor identity 'Flight-RCs'. Probably sent with the same courier for all packages
2. No difficulty for LE to identify them directly from those packages
3. No difficulty for LE to find their warehouses or other locations

With all respect, when an operation can work out for that long but can't withstand a large seizure of packages that have been sent out, you as purchaser have to assume that your data is at risk, contrary to what the Support/Mod on TH has said:

MCxi1cu2w4


As of right now their TG is still actiavted but I would not recommend anyone to believe the mod there right now until further notice from third parties or identity approval through PGP.
The risk of LEs keeping the TG open as honeypot is very big in the current situation.
You have to assume that they had 0 OpSec and the guy speaking to you there is a LE officer, until he proofs not to be.

You will always have the least risk if you do not buy directly from vendors and synthesize chemicals yourself, especially when it is about large quantities.
Breaking Bad has just released a video on synthesizing ADB Putinaca, a powerful cannabinoid and information for the manufacturing of 5CL is also wide-spread.

You will always have the best chance when you only purchase legal chemicals to create the drug in your own, secure place:



@William Dampier @HEISENBERG aswell as all other experts on Breaking Bad will always be happy to help you to set up your clandestine operation fast, secure and profitable.

Stay safe,

Gordon

That will be a tough one, the DEA will definitely try to have their way with them

Wow, that surely is a shame. I was wondering why their site had been stuck in "under maintenance" for so long.

Using express shipping option is why it got seized parcels. It goes by planes which is looked more carefully.

No this is not right. Express was actually our safest method of shipping. The problem was 2 Months ago, where Lithuania went into lock down after it was literally a warzone of 3cmc and noids which mostly came from Greece, Interpol got aware of it and started investigating incoming packages - like all parcels entering the country - then noticed the pattern and looked deeper into Greece... it was just a matter of time :(

Working with shipments is always a matter of time. Only dead drops can ensure anonymous uninterrupted operation, and the detention of your store is another negative example.

If you had a huge sales market in Lithuania, then you had to open a warehouse with dead drops there. The warehouse could receive the goods by mail.

Yes, of course. But I need to mention that there were a lot of funds going towards the shipping departments in fact so much that we paying over 200€ per package sent via express while charging 90€ for it. Lithuania was actually just a small client of ours. But I agree with what you are saying, I had no influence in making this happen, since I came into the team later on and now am the last man standing trying to make it be what it could have been!

Do you have info on how it was possible for Interpol/Europol to trace Flight back just from 8 parcels, within 2 months?
There must have been either evidence on the parcels or a hint inside that could lead to the shop, otherwise I can not explain the rapid investigation speed of 2 months

Yes, I do!
The number of 8 parcels is fully fictional because there were at least 30 parcels seized, many of the people that had been arrested in LT, told police where and how they got it. Apart from that, there are 2 more factors, firstly he did not slow down once everyone told him, we all saw the risk, he even saw it coming without knowing for sure when, and did not want to slow down much further. The other point I talked with many about, is that he started selling real hash, which itself isnt that big of a deal, but that stuff.... you smelled it even if you are 3 countries away, so dogs were a problem from there on as well... Hash came to the shop 4 days before his arrest...
Anyway I hope to be able to continue his legacy but with proper opsec and a completely different approach.
If I get more intel from "internals" I will update everyone before the media does!

Thanks, I assumed the media was spreading fake news.

This helps for us to improve our OpSec and learn from mistakes, thanks for that!

I am not sure but if you have a direct contact to lawyers or the chance to send money once they got finally incarcerated, I would send 100$ for Flight into prison through you.

Yes, I do have direct contact to his lawyers, however if I am able to get the money to reach him is the other question, I will ask is this is a possibility, but I'm sure he appreciates the fact that so many people worry about him and feel for him means more and is worth more to him than any money!
Thank you so much for the offer and Im sure he would be just as happy as I am hearing so many kind words!

That's why I never would accept express mail, even if it's domestically shipped via that method. You never know when things will get checked before getting on the plane.

Hey, Im Cut.
I am not quite sure where to post this, but for now I can assure you that all the customer data is safe and secure, fully encrypted and backends were not rebooted!
To cause as little drawback or trace by Interpol and similar I cannot give too much intel on what is going to happen in the future yet, just note that the brand FRCS or Flight Rcs will not come back under this name, it will be continued by me as this was discussed with flight longer times ago, not for this particular case but similar ones, though the business model will be reinvented!

Also I want to point out, that the TG was left open, but restricted in order to filter out all known and trusted members. after the groups all got purged, by banning every single member of each group.

What is the best way to obtain 5f-adb? Is there another vendor or group that the community recommends? Thanks for your help

As far as I know, currently there isnt. However I cannot let the flight legacy end like this and there is some stuff in the planning / making cannot guarantee on anything yet :)

@NoCutt Yeah that sounds like a good plan. Hopefully can find a legitimate supplier for small 50 or 100g shipments until you get on your feet
