Someone nearly got busted ordering seeds

[Still Invisible]

A post I came across on another site.

Posted 02 February 2012 - 06:22 PM

This is a story about what happened to me on ######
I finaly grew some balls and orderd my seeds on ##### sweet as, my grow room is all ready to go my green thumb is twiching

all i have to do now is get my seeds and im off to growing my own weed no more dealers no more shiting my pants coming back home on a train with an oz on me.
Went for the superstealth option and only ordered 10 seeds plus 5 or 6 freebies used my own addy and my gf's card

My dream got crushed at around ### on the ##### i recive a phone call from a private number and its customs my mind just starts racing what do i say? what do i do? should i hang up and take down my grow room pack it up and stash in in the roofspace?
I told my self to calm down and listen to what they have to say. they told me they have a parcel for me and wanted to know what was in it (um yeah real smooth i allready know that they know whats in there it otherwise why call me) i just said i wouldnt have a clue what was in the parcel and asked them where its from they gave me some adress all i remember is UK (i have mates in UK that i play with on ####) so i said i have a friend on #### that was telling me he will send me a present they asked me for a name and adress i said i dont know this person other than by his gamertag so they asked for that so i just gave them a fake one the guy on the phone started geting a bit rude saying this stuff just doesnt happen and he thinks that im aware of whats in the parcel i said ok i allready told u that i dont know u can just think whatever u want then i asked them if they had anymore questions as i have to go they just said they will request my bank details and check out my story.

I got my friend from uk to create the gamertag i gave the customs packed up my bong,weed,laptop and took to a friends place who lives 2 blocks down from me left my door open on the chain and waited for the cops to bust in at #### i get a knock on the door and its just 2 cops a guy and a chick(in my head i was like sweet they are not here to take me in if they were the pussy's would come with atleast 4 or 5) so i went outside and locked my door behind me they took down my statement and asked me to sign a information release form or some crap so they can check my bank account with out geting a warrant i happily signed it as i bought the beans with my gf's card and put it in my name then i asked them what will happen now they said if i got nothing on my bank statement they will send me a letter and if there is i can expect a visit from them.

well as i got nothing on my bank statement im just going to wait for the letter. hope this clears some of ur questions about what happens when they get ur parcel and helps u get out of trouble if they do which i hope will never happen to anyone

Well it wasn't me, it was someone elses post; he is in Australia.

Bit of a worry though as they found them even though he was using the stealth option.

Well the dude should not be posting the story online where they can read that they need to check his girlfriends account! Not smart at all that's for damn sure.

Don't order seeds to your grow site, or in your real name this is some basic 101 type shit here. Also you should only be using a Money Order if you are not in a med state and even then I think a MO is the only safe way to go because it's like cash for the most part and much safer than buying something on a credit card or bank account. Learn from these mistakes people! Be safe out there and remember seeds are for eating only!

"Sign this so we can check your bank account without getting a warrant"

"Hahahaha, sorry, give me just a second, Hahahahahaha, you want me to what? Hahahahaha, ok, ok, sorry, now what was that again? Hahahahahaha, how about you 2 go stick your guns up each others asses and, Hahahahahaha, get fudged. Hahahahahahaha."

SLAM.

Stay Safe!

Isn't this the person that had the cops knocking on his door telling him someone turned him in for dealing?

australia is the ONLY country ive heard of fucking with seeds at customs... ive heard of bust stemming from seed orders in AUSTRALIA ONLY as well.. not my home turf just threads i read... but it all seems that if you live is australia order seeds to a safe address with fake names and a preodered credit card that is not anyway drawn back to you.

 

[StRa]

not only AUSTRALIA.........

A desperate cry from Italy! -massive raids

 

[johnnybravo]

how did they possibly come across your phone number?

 

[Hammerhead]

I have also herd of seed shipments not making it to the places mentioned. I have never lost seeds to customs but I have lost OC to customs. They sent me a letter that said we have sized a shipment of OC with your address and will not release them without a valid prescription. Please fax the Prescription to xxx-xxx-xxxx.. I never did and never herd from them again

 

[Brother Bear]

This particular story sounds contrived to me.

 

[happyherb]

how did they possibly come across your phone number?

(well it isn't him supposedly ....its someone else?)good question thou

...something got me thinking..earlier today thinking about this thread

How did they make any connection to any credit card purchase????...its not like in a seed order they say "Hey...thanks for paying with a credit card(or include your phone number...or other info for that mater)

I pay with cash...i could use a money order...or i could pay with a credit card....but how the hell would the cops or customs know my payment method???

Brother Bear...you may be onto something.HH. =]-~

 

[GP73LPC]

cash here...

po box, with the previous renters name... (still have mail coming there in that name, so it's cool...)

does sound kinda fishy, but i don't live down under... i just live in the U.S.S.A.

Yeah, that was me, but I'm not the person in the post that had the seeds seized, I just pasted that from another site.

According to a drug report on average 2 shipments of seeds get seized a day in Australia.
I have only lost one, that wasn't from Seedboutique, that was from another seedbank.
There were a lot of reports at the time that peoples seeds were not arriving from that seedbank and as a result he now refuses to send seeds to Australia, because too many of his orders were not making it through.
It seems in Australia that most times when they find seeds they do nothing but they do sometimes send the cops around.

Since the cops came to my door it's been pretty quiet, there was a bit of surveillance for about a week afterwards but I haven't noticed anything since, so I am going to start back up, but I'm going to keep it pretty low key for a while.
I don't know if I would feel comfortable any more having a biggish grow (about 40 plants), with a snitch next door and two doors down watching my every move.

 

[SativaKeith]

that's nothing. i would tell the person that called to choose a nice finger and shove it up in his *** & then i would hang up the phone.

in i s r a e l, they (cops) come dressed as the post office delivery guys and bust your ass on spot when delivering, then they will go into your apartment and start mess up things.

we even had cases of which the cops were following some guys who ordered seeds, they were on them for a few days untill they got to the grow op.

its a horrible situation here and i CAN'T order anymore seeds... and theres sooooooo many that i want.

flying soon to Spain & Amsterdam for some seed shopping, hope to find some goodies in Spain

i wonder where i could meet and buy seeds from Mr.nice/chimera/DJ short !!

Im sorry what?!?!? You're going to grow (aslong as it's less than 40 plants) with snitches next door and two doors down? Even after you've been raided and been under surveilance?

Give me bad karma if you want, but what are you thinking? Move house. Surely that makes more sense?

I got raided (cops found all sortsa stuff). I laid low for a couple of years. I moved house. New house isnt in my name, nothing is, moved to a different town, different cops, different people. I never go to the hydro shop any more, and I changed my growing method so I only had minimal plant numbers, and I still think Im half fucking stupid to grow again!

I think the snitches have done their dash, they have cried wolf too many times and after 3 months or so surveiling me the cops found nothing.
The snitches are going to have to see something real to call the cops about before the cops will do anything, like plants in the backyard or something.
And I didn't get raided, I caught the cops looking through the fence into my yard and when they saw I had sprung them they came around to the front door and wanted to search the place but I wouldn't let them.
They didn't have any evidence to get a search warrant, apart from the word of a couple of snitches, which wasn't enough, so as long as I run a tight ship and give them no evidence to get a search warrant then I should be right.
And the snitches can snitch all they want but without being able to show the cops bright orange light shining out of the window or whatever then the cops can't do anything.

But I'm thinking I will have fewer plants but I'm going to make them big ones, it's all about numbers around here.

 

[whatsupdoc]

I'm going to need to see a second, verifiable source before I can believe this story. It would be too easy for the cops to make something like this up, and 'inject' it into our culture to keep us believing in 'ghosts'.

There's PLENTY to be paranoid about, but this scenario isn't one of them.

 

[supherbb]

There is always a risk in ordering seeds, same as there is risk walking out your front door in the morning. If you want to live risk free, don't grow pot right now.
