I should've learned my lesson the first time, but my stupidity really overrided me here. Here's my story.
I discovered the Deep Web at the beginning of the year and began reading up on BTC quite a bit. I also read up on the services quite a bit (just not thorough enough research). I decided to buy a $100 worth of goods from brainmagic. I figured it was a scam and was willing to bite the bullet to let other newbies know. I was okay with the loss even though I prefer to let my money not get stolen. I was correct in the assumption of scam
At the time, I had coins stored in OnionWallet and had been able to get my coins out the wallet which had left over .056 BTC. That sat for awhile and I was able to access the account. Yesterday, wanting something from Pandora, I got more BTC and decided to transfer these coins to my OnionWallet until I could transfer them to Pandora. That account, after pending the coins, immediately stopped working. I followed the coins on blockchain after finding out it was a scam and found that the account the money was ultimately sent to was run by the same guy as brainmagic. I've lost a total of $810 due to this scammer and have no one to blame but myself.
My "research" was not thorough and I could've handled this all far better. I've been a fucking idiot. Facepalm for the newb!
I know now that if I am ever to use the deep web again for any kind of purchasing, I must leave my money in the wallet of the site I bought my BTC from until making my purchase from a known vendor that has scammed. I know that I cannot really trust anything. I know how easy it is to lose a chunk of my money. To other newb's:
DON'T DO WHAT I DID. LOOK UP
EVERYTHING AND I MEAN
EVERYTHING BEFORE YOU INVEST. YOU CAN AND WILL BE SCAMMED VERY EASILY IF YOU GET CARRIED AWAY AND DO NOT THINK
Just so everyone knows the wretched sites (though most probably do):
