The sale of the COVID-19 vaccine on the dark web continues.

[plvbob0070]

Well, I understand if we see people selling vaccines on the dark web, but I wonder why would people buy vaccines there? First, there is no assurance that the vaccine is real, knowing that they are selling it there. It's not being sold individually, let the government acquire vaccines for their people. Second, we are still at the early stage of vaccinating people so there's no need to be impatient. Personally, I don't want to be one of the people who will get early vaccination because I still find it risky. And why does someone need to spend such a huge amount on a vaccine being sold in a not legal place? The price is way too expensive than the actual price of the vaccines available.

and finally that for a while it can be generalized that vaccines are a lucrative business, where vaccine users find it difficult to distinguish which vaccines are genuine and which vaccines are just replicas for business purposes. Doesn't the rampant illegal sale of vaccines signify leaks for the government due to their ignorance of unregulated actions? even if the scammers are protected by the government, so this is an luxury for the vaccine business.

I prefer to call it the vaccine business. due to the fact that there are always overlapping financial holders investing in them.

I think that people who can access the dark web are intelligent people who tend to have bad desires. Because on the dark web there are many illegal items that are traded. It is not only vaccines that currently become our basic need, even drugs, weapons, human organs, or human trafficking also occur in it. Whoever sells or buys the vaccine is the one who will do bad things in the future. Vaccines will indeed be given free of charge to the public, but I'm not sure the whole society will get it. Poor countries with densely populated people will find it difficult to buy vaccines and make it free for all of their societies so that the solution is that the government will give vaccines to people who are at very high risk of exposure. There is a gap that occurs if this scenario is executed. People who are not registered with the government's free vaccines are a marketplace for sellers of these vaccines. And this is the worst-case scenario, the vaccine that is sold to the common people comes from the vaccine trade on the dark web.

Maybe people from the countries where covid cases are constantly rising are purchasing those vaccines due to the loss of their life just for a few hundred dollars. Of course, governments are going to give it for free but for someone who is in need may not be on the priority list of the government so if he got the money then he maybe bought from someone who is saying that they got the effective vaccine.

[Genemind]

It's just so heartbreaking that the vaccine that is supposed to cure and could end this pandemic is just becoming a business and another source of corruption in some countries. Another sad part is rich people who could afford it will be the priority.
Those who buy vaccines from the dark web are those people who want to secure themselves so we can't blame them despite taking the risk because honestly, it's hard to trust the government these days.

[hahay]

When vaccines can be given or distributed for free, it is unlikely that ordinary people will have the vaccines packaged, making it impossible for ordinary people to stockpile vaccines to sell. With that reason, I just don't want to be suspicious but if the dark web continues to receive vaccines regularly, I think the answer will be predictable. But despite all that, let us be patient because in the end every citizen will definitely be vaccinated, no need to buy because this will be obtained free of charge, right.

Since the COVID-19 vaccination began, Dakrnet has regularly offered vaccine purchases at different prices.

Yesterday's news reports the sale of the vaccine for $1,000 in bitcoins.

What are the scammers hoping for? Who will purchase such a product when vaccinations are given to everyone for free?
Is it possible that impatience of people and haste can lead to a thoughtless purchase of a vaccine from someone who is not clear? What's going on in people's heads? And also where did the scammers get the vaccines? They offer wholesale purchases. Can anyone trust anyone now?

It is obviously a scam in many levels, to begin with they are selling the vaccines for an incredibly inflated price, I could kind of understand a person paying a premium for the vaccine as he was not on the list to be vaccinated during these early stages but he got the vaccine in the free market from a reputable source, this is possible because there are many countries in which the vaccine will be available for sell in drugstores, however paying such a huge mount of money in the black market where you do not even know what you are receiving or if they have stored the vaccine as instructed so it does not lose effectiveness in the process is a mistake.

Not only a mistake but simply a suicide on entrusting up your life into something which is unknown or not being registered yet to be legit.Dealing with things in dark web is
already implies as shady as hell.

What the heck on having that price of 1k usd? you dont even sure if those do came from legit sources and cant just believe that there are still people who do buy
out of these vaccines. Are they out of their minds?

If sales do still continue which means theres a demand. Desperation do really end up on these foolish actions.

Well.. there is no doubt that purchasing medications from the dark web is risky as hell. But a lot of people use dark web platforms to source various expensive medications at cheaper rates. Check this:

https://www.vocativ.com/culture/health-culture/drugs-online/index.html

But then, purchasing vaccines, which require deep-freezing from the dark market involves more than the usual amount of risk. In most cases, the vendor is either going to vanish with your money, or he will send you a placebo.

[pecson134]

In no way I would buy vaccine on those kind of markets because illegally distributed means it is either fake or not effective and life risky. Even on the official release of vaccine the potency were not of 100% and some vaccine were barely at 50% potency which made several people hesitate if they want to be injected by it including me.

But the risky is not only your money but also our health because we do not know if this is the real vaccines or fake. This time we need more safety even our health , we know that dark web is like a hell so why we need to risk ourself with this. Be careful this time.

True , thats why we dont need to use that for purchasing vaccines. Many of the vendors inside the dark web is not true and the they reason is to get us our money. This time we need to think more than twice.

[RealMalatesta]

What are the scammers hoping for? Who will purchase such a product when vaccinations are given to everyone for free?

there are free samples but there are also being sold . its the same as government giving free medicines and vitamins but they only give limited amounts and after that your going to purchase the other half and you can buy those on the drug stores and pharmacy but vaccine suppliers need to be careful buying in darkmarkets because scams are verry active on those places .

I think depending on your nation, it is free for everyone but it takes time. So let's say you got a nation with 100 million, and there is a need for 200 million vaccines (2 dosage for each person), even if the nation has 200 million vaccines all ready, getting that vaccine will take some time, first people who work in hospitals will get it, then people who are old will get it, then people who work will get it, then people who are government workers will get it, etc etc there is a line, and if you are 30 year old private business owner for example, yours could be as far as 8 to 12 months away even though it is free.

This is why some people buy these, and get it done themselves, just so they could be ready right now instead of a year from now to go out there without fear. A very very big mistake but at the end we are talking about fear of losing your life, so I kind of understand their logic.

I have read about people purchasing cancer medications from dark market websites, as they can't afford to purchase them from normal shops. These medications are in most cases real and effective, mostly manufactured in countries such as Bangladesh and India. In the US/EU, these drugs are overpriced by a factor of 10x or 20x, due to reasons well known to everyone. In most cases, the users don't have a choice.

[Lorence.xD]

Who the hell buy covid vaccine on darkweb, when it is not confirmed that official vaccine gives a 100% cure result and there will be later no consequences. These must be people who sends money unlock 1 billion $ lottery winnings they’ve got in email. Or open any attachments in emails.

There are real vaccine smugglers in the darknet, you just need to be good at finding a legitimate one. Those gullible persons are the same ones that buy those vaccines from the darknet. To be fair, I have to give props to this scammers because their business is booming because of this idiot people trying to get ahead of the others in an illegal way, I do not mind that this people get scammed because both the seller and the buyer in this case is a scum of society.

[poodle63]

Isn't the vaccine starts to roll out already? in most part of the world more specifically those countries that invented the vaccine, this vaccine from darknet thing just will be gone very soon since the vaccine itself is affordable and I've read some of the company that provides vaccine giving it out for free. Whoever bought vaccine from darkweb whilst living in developed country and impatience enough to not wait few days should get their brain checked for real.

Most of the countries have started the vaccination drive, and already more than 35 million shots have been administered. Within the United States, a total of 11.9 million people have received their first dosage of the vaccine. You can get the details on a country-to-country basis here:

https://www.bloomberg.com/graphics/covid-vaccine-tracker-global-distribution/

But if you consider the number of people who have been vaccinated, to the total population of the world (7.6 billion), you can see that it is very minuscule. At this pace, even by the end of this year only a small fraction of the global population will be vaccinated. And that is the reason why some people are getting impatient now.

Why would people buy vaccine in the dark web? Are they crazy to take the risk upon buying those unprescribe meds? The vaccine has been distributed already si it's best to wait for the government to properly distribute to its own constituents and this is more safer than those unknown meds there.

What is quite confusing is, there are still people who buy the vaccine. I don't know whether they don't trust their local government regulating vaccinations, or they (sellers of the dark web) are smart enough to make a narrative, so that someone will buy the vaccine anyway, even though I'm sure there's no 100% chance of the vaccine can verify the origin

[babykika2027]

why people really ready to buy some shady vaccine on darknet? It offically shady and you will never know that will be in the darknet vaccine

[ecnalubma]

People looking to purchase for vaccines in the darkweb are crazy. They are buying a cure, they are putting their life in danger or possibly instant death if they take these unregulated stuffs. Personally I’m not in hurry to get those stuffs because as of now I’m still very hesitant to take those even if it will be given free to every citizen of the country, rather I’m willing to wait for months or a year to observe feedbacks from those people who took a shot.
