Analysis Summary
MT Intelligence
The site presents as an e-commerce store for SR-17018, a research chemical, offering grams with worldwide discreet shipping and BTC payments only. The strongest red flag is crypto-only checkout with no reversible options, a common scam tactic. It also uses a free proton.me email instead of its own domain, has no phone number or postal address, and no social links. Mixed scores from independent review aggregators average 69/100, pulling confidence down from clean AV and IP scans. Overall, it lacks legitimacy signals of a real business.
