Is the FBI messaging darknet drug dealers on cryptomarkets, asking them to cooperate? It's possible but the message isn't PGP signed. Missed detail: the PGP key used by NCIDE task force is not the entire FBI's PGP key. If fake this troll has mastered LE-speak. "JCO-DarkHalt"

If a troll it's hard to figure out what they would actually gain here. Psyops to scare a vendor away from using a competing market? If a vendor follows the instructions and PGP encrypts to NCIDE's key, and emails the official NCIDE email address, then they really do get the info.

The grammatical structure is off. this doesnt make any sense, to contact a vendor this way after supposedly catching them i the act.

IMHO the "we are obligated to identify ourselves", "it is required to identify the message by means of PGP", and the whole operation naming make it sound like inauthentic (I don't think LE ever mention this "JCO-DarkHalt" public, did they?)

Not sure the motive, but grammer and content leads me to say it is false. JCODE / FBI / LEA are also not required to identify themselves as stated either.

Also... How do you charge someone on the grounds of 5th/6th amendment? Red notice is similarly misused here.

LE wouldn’t message a vendor saying they are gathering evidence on them, they do would do this confidentially. seems like a troll

Nothing about this suggests that the troll has "mastered LE-speak". Come on, the message is full of stupid tropes like "we are obligated to identify ourselves [...] we have lawfully identified ourselves"
