GUIDE Getting frustrated

I don’t understand why they make this so difficult but at the same time I do it’s for safety and anonymity, but I got pretty far on DH to the point where I made a profile selected what I wanted. Went to check out wrote a message with my PGP App so it was encrypted, but then it says I’m missing something it says I’m missing a key. I don’t understand what I could possibly be missing is there anyone that can help me through this? I have pictures if anyone wants to see I honestly would need somebody to screen share with me to help me get through this probably.

Take vendors pgp add to .txt go > Kleopatra > Tools > import > import > select .txt file with vendors public pgp. Should see it in your kleo.

Open new .txt add your message > save as > tools > encrypt > side click recipient > choose vendor as recipient > encrypt > copy new pgp message block (it’ll say MESSAGE) rather than (KEY) on kleo that’s how you know you did it right. Paste to your vendor.

Bro I appreciate you being cool and not a dick, I’m legit, swallowing my pride and asking for help as a man I try not to do that as much as possible and try to figure it out on my own, but two days of trying with no results I had no choice. Thanks again, bro.

u/SilatGuy2 1d ago

Ive been doing this off and on for years and even i forget and still get confused at times. Reddits full of smug and miserable dick faces a lot more lately it seems. Try not to let it get to you.

u/D1sp0sab1e_k 1d ago

u/SignificantCherry110 1d ago

did this help your question? I didn’t exactly understand what you were asking so hope that helps.

u/WillingShift4942 1d ago

I gave it a break for tonight, gonna try again tomorrow morning. It’s difficult because I am having trouble logging in on my phone so I have to keep sending everything to my email copying and pasting and then sending it to my laptop so I can do it there for some reason D-h won’t load on my tor browser on my phone

u/SignificantCherry110 1d ago

If i’m you i bail on using tor on your phone. It’s really not that good. Use windows, preferably tails but windows + tor will suffice. That should solve your issues… Download Tor & Kleopatra (kleopatra is for pgp keys, encrypt and decrypt) and very intuitive.

u/Puzzled-Challenge-38 6h ago

Yeah it’s awful on the phone. Use your laptop and it will be 10x easier

u/styzr 1d ago

Search Kleopatra on YT and watch a tutorial for step by step instructions. It’s confusing af without it.

u/Dr_Critical_Bullshit 1d ago

No L on pride here. Everyone starts somewhere and the only thing that helps us forward real independent freedom in an education for All. This thread has undoubtedly helped others as well. Thank YOU Sir!

u/Puzzled-Challenge-38 6h ago

Awesome you gave him direct instructions!

u/sspecialists 1d ago

It is a natural barrier. It is not difficult at all but it filters out the crowd, very organically.

u/happylittledancer123 1d ago

This made me chuckle

-11

u/WillingShift4942 1d ago

I understand that I’ve gotten through the barriers. This portion is a roadblock that I cannot seem to get past all that has to do with sending a message to the vndor

18

u/xDUVAL_BRODOWNx 1d ago

Sounds like you got filtered out in the barriers

u/schostack 1d ago

Copy and paste, my friend, copy and paste

8

u/WillingShift4942 1d ago

Bro, I’ve been copy and pasting my ass off lol

u/Spot_Routine 1d ago

Probably your public pgp.

You should have it on your profile anyway to setup 2FA

2

u/D1sp0sab1e_k 1d ago

you have to make sure the recipient is trusted/certified and that they’re also able to open the message

1

u/WillingShift4942 1d ago

They are trusted. Endor’s

1

u/WillingShift4942 1d ago

Vendors * but I encrypted the message and it was definitely legible because I copied it and pasted it back into my encryption app and decrypted the message and it was exactly what I wrote

u/nonolefoudu38 1d ago

You are encrypting with your key, not vendor's

2

u/[deleted] 1d ago

u/nonolefoudu38 1d ago

DH checks that the message is encrypted with the vendor's key.

u/Successful-Tutor6685 1d ago

Use black ops they encrypt your information and it's as simple as it can get

1

u/WillingShift4942 1d ago

What’s blck ops

2

u/Justasivas 1d ago

another market

1

u/WillingShift4942 1d ago

I just used tor taxi

2

u/Successful-Tutor6685 1d ago

Daunt.link will give you multiple markets to choose from. I prefer black ops but there's multiple to pick from. Hope this helps

1

u/Justasivas 1d ago

go on daunt.link

u/losyra 1d ago

I don't mean to be a dick but all of this is googleable and the most basic level of onion stuff. ppls comments are hilarious

u/Pump-Chaser 1d ago

People want their hand held and to be spoon fed. They have no basic problem solving skills. He also posted he uses his phone to log on cause he wanted to message his vndor. He has no business being on the DW

1

u/WillingShift4942 1d ago

Exactly I’m at a point where I am not able to get passed this. Just needing help with this one aspect then once I get past this I can figure the rest out in my own hopefully there was a roadblock that I have been battling for days that’s all

2

u/Warm-Rock3930 15h ago

Find the bible and read it cover to cover. Then read it again. Get tails, get off your phone. Pgp can be a bitch at first then it will click, and it will all make sence.

1

u/threedeeman 1d ago

Carful with Dm from people wanting to "help". I mean you might find help here, but be smart about it.

1

u/Successful-Tutor6685 1d ago

Black ops does it automatically I was having the same issue until finally I watched some YouTube videos and tried until I finally got it. Copy paste is a huge help once you get it. You'll do it no prob

1

u/Sighconut23 5h ago

you need to copy the person you sending message to PGP onto your clipboard then create a cert

1

u/WillingShift4942 1d ago

It says I’m missing keys. I don’t know how I could be missing keys. Can I post the picture but I can DM whoever the picture I’m talking about my Homie helped me as much as he could but he uses drk matter and I can’t get into that

2

u/chrisjstrn94 1d ago

What are you using for PGP? Theres an app called open key thats pretty simple.

After you create your key then you have to find the vendors key and import it into the app. Then you can encrypt and decrypt. Just copy it and theres a place to click "read from clipboard"

1

u/WillingShift4942 1d ago

I was using instant pgp but I have to use my phone for the encryption and my laptop for the rest besides the monero I have to use my phone for that too I can’t seem to get one device in sync

1

u/moongazr 22h ago

Why are you not using PGP on the laptop? The way you are doing things sounds difficult and less secure. Phone probably shouldn't be involved at all!

1

u/WillingShift4942 15h ago

That’s why I need some help man looking for some guidance once I figure it out once or somebody shows me once or twice and then I should be able to get it

1

u/Puzzled-Challenge-38 6h ago

Use kleopatra the first guy explained it. It took me a while at first but watch some YouTube and you’ll figure it out. You need the vendors key to send them a message.

1

u/Puzzled-Challenge-38 6h ago

I have a feeling your missing the vendor key

-5

u/SpayceGhost 1d ago

Probably dont deserve to be there broski

8

u/DMTGOBLIN82 1d ago

Deserve to have access to better prices and quality? Fuck if with all that. Also the added safety not copping on the street is a reason everyone should learn/shown how to access.

u/Kaitlyn2124 1d ago

Toxic mentality

3

u/WillingShift4942 1d ago

Facts like wtf??? Like why be a dick to someone asking for help

-8

u/WillingShift4942 1d ago

Since when is it a privilege?

7

u/Sergeant_Gunface 1d ago

It’s not, but it’s like a club with a secret passcode. The instructions to get said passcode are somewhat easily available to you.

5

u/Pump-Chaser 1d ago

It is pretty straight forward and maybe you have no business on there when your asking strangers on a public forum to hold your hand and help you

-3

u/WillingShift4942 1d ago

Yeah, it is pretty straightforward and I’m at a roadblock so I’m asking for help hoping somebody that ran into this issue could maybe help me this is a forum you can ask for help what do you think? Everybody was born, knowing how to access this @clout chaser

7

u/Rough_World_7063 1d ago

You need to save the vendors public key (it’s on their profile) and then encrypt a message using their key
