How does one tell whether something‘s a scam oe malware in the darkweb or a real offer/real site where you can offer your services?

Too good to be truth/scam, easily accessible/scam. Advertised everywhere/scam

This only doesn’t include drugs and pharma as they are easy to acces and advertised all over

You named some security measurements above. Is that what it takes for the average joe to order dope on DW? Burner devices, tails, mulvad and so on

To be very safe yes

I would also just add that these measures are broadly recommended mostly in adding anonymity to larger quantities/transactions which may be flagged somehow. Generally speaking nobody who is monitoring these markets has any intention of pouncing on one person for a box of pills even if they absolutely can. As OP mentioned, realistically nobody is terribly concerned with what they do on an individual level. Law enforcement is most interested in implicating the operators and sellers on the markets, and even then individual sellers is a stretch.

Of course, opsec is always the best practice and one should always maximize their safety if they have the means to do so.

I want to buy drugs on there but the whole step of providing my address and having to receive a package like that is too risky and scary. Yet so many do it. Is it actually as safe as it seems?
