Dark web murder-for-hire organisation Besa Mafia never paid any of their would-be hitmen for burning cars for them. The only people paid were their army of freelance writers. Here’s what Besa Mafia had them do.
Any freelancer knows that sometimes you have to take some pretty questionable jobs to put dinner on the table. This whole writing gig is not at all lucrative for those of us who are not J.K. Rowling or Stephen King, and in between books and serious investigative journalism (both which pay dismally when converted to hourly rates), we have to take some less-than-rewarding jobs. My low points have included extolling the virtues of pokies (slot machines for US readers) and offering my body up for clinical tests of a new drug (not the fun kind).
What I’ve never done is write for a content mill. The money on offer can barely sustain a modest Bangladeshi lifestyle, let alone buy a smashed avocado breakfast in one of the most expensive countries in the world.
If I had been desperate enough to pick up content mill work, this is the sort of ad I might have responded to:
Any freelancer responding to such an advertisement would start chatting with Yura, owner of Besa Mafia, advance-scammer extraordinaire. Yura, as previously reported, didn’t really want to kill anyone, but needed people to think he did so they would pay him lots of Bitcoin.
Still, he didn’t want them to know they were advertising a murder-for-hire site, so he had a cunning story for those who responded to the ad:
‘I need fiction stories that are one page long and written in the style of testimonial, they are fictional you as writer must imagine that you are a different person each time, and you need to write a story or testimonial about how someone did something bad to you; you wanted to take revenge, and you found some site on deep web named Besa Mafia, you tried them and they did a job well for you, beating up or killing a person. An example of such story is here: https://sites.google.com/site/besamafiastories.
The purpose of these fictional stories is that we are fighting Besa Mafia and want to get their site closed down; we want to shock the public and mass media to put pressure on FBI to close their site down. They provide real beating up and killing services, but their customers don’t publish stories, so media doesn’t bother with them; so we need to stories to shock public and get pressure on fbi to close besa mafia site down.
can you write fictional stories like this? you get paid $5 for each story, one page long, 500 words.. like a fake testimonial meant to shock and appear valid to have them closed down’
Yep, like everyone else on content mills, Yura’s pay rate for freelance article writers was shit. Three articles and three tweets would net a freelancer a cool $35.
Besa Mafia shelled out $10 for this article, then asked for another ten in a similar vein.
“in one story pretend you are women who was raped, in other story pretend you are father and your dauther was raped, in other story, pretend you are woman and your husben beated you and cheated many times, in other story pretend that a lover cheated and stole a large amount of money, etc’
He got 10 more, but ever the scammer, this time he didn’t pay for them. He used all the stories and would post them anywhere he could; he would create websites that claimed they were in it to fight the very real threat of Besa Mafia; he would post in Reddit threads, on Quora (he even used my name to post one of the Quora testimonials) and anywhere else he could think of.
He also hired people to find news stories online of murders that could have been Besa hitmen and had people write comments on such stories when comments were enabled: ‘This looks like a murder by a paid gang member.. Like those who offer services on sites like Besa Mafia on Deep Web, google it to see what I am talking about. Hitmen for hire can do jobs for $5000 these days, it’s the end of the world.. Hope police will close them down.’
When he rebranded as Chechen Mafia, he moved into paying taggers for graffiti ads:
This might seem like a hell of a lot of work for one person to go to, but the returns were more than worth it. Yura raked in AT LEAST 192 BTC, which at today’s exchange rate is over $US 1 million.
So freelancers, you can respond to shitty jobs on content mills, but it is much more lucrative to open a fake hitman site.
Don’t forget, it’s always smart to hide your IP from prying eyes. I use IPVanish

How to sign up
The Besa and Crimbay websites are very dangerous places to visit.
The admins there are likely to capture someof your information and sell it to the police
The fake hitmen sites are dangerous for those who want to order murder
Scamming is bad, but ordering killing is even more bad
So fuck you murder ordering junkies
The sites were real and were not dangerous for those who want to order murder because those are anonymous, no one ever submits his own details when placing an order for a murder online
Also one who order murder online can pretend to be someone else, some other person who hates the target so police will arrest a different person if the initial person makes sure to delete all traces of his activity on his computer and to hide his ip
Eileen, nice to see that you din’t gave up on exposing the fake hitmen sites
Why are you siding up with the murderers?
By the way, the income from the fake hitmen sites was not 192 BTC, but was over 530 BTC, and that is worth now over 6 million USD
Too bad I only have half of them
PS. don’t pay attention to my IP, I use TOR plus proxy from east european countries, bulgary, romania, hungary, ukraine etc
Hey Eileen. Do you think that *all* of the hitman sites are scams? Someone was questioning me about this today; they seemed dubious when I said that the hitmen and red rooms were scams. Although they might not have been that familiar with the dark web in general.
There are some real hitmen sites and some real red room sites.. someone was even arrested for a red room that was killing small childred, daisy destruction i think
so similary is not difficult for some programmer to do a real site where hitmen can advertise their services and where customers would post their jobs, without providing their own info, to be conected with hitmen… something like ebay or freelancer sites but in the world of killing
Some hitmen sites are fake some are real
ATTENTION!!!
FBI NSA CIA AND OTHER GOVERNMENTAL ORGANISATIONS ARE ASKING JOURNALISTS AND PUBLISHERS TO SAVE LIVES BY LYING THAT HITMEN SITES ARE FAKE!!!
FBI CAN’T CLOSE HITMEN SITES ON DEEP WEB BECAUSE THESE ARE HIDDEN AND ANONYMOUS, SO THEIR ONLY WAY TO FIGHT THEM IS TO DO A DISINFORMATION CAMPAIGN AND ASK JOURNALISTS TO PUBLISH FAKE STORIES AND ARTICLES SAYING THAT ALL HITMEN ARE FAKE
THE MORE ARTICLES YOU SEE ABOUT A HITMAN SITE IS FAKE THE MORE IT MEANS IS REAL!!!
that is because no journalist or editor wants to help would be murderers by telling them which hitmen site is a scam, in order for the would-be murderers to stay away from it.
that would mean journalists are helping would be murderers to stay away from scams and honeypots and to achieve their plan of killing the victim by other means, such as direct murder or hitmen from streets, etc
no journalists want to help the would-be murderers, because journalists want to save lives and to do moral things and they can also be accused by police with accessory to murder if they help criminals and murderers in any way, even by telling them which sites are scams and which are not
that is why you will never find true reliable advice from journalists that have a name on their site because they can be arrested for helping murderers
You can only trust journalists on deep web that are anonymous, but please consider that even they can be undercover cops lying so the best is to TRUST NOONE!!!!!
you can test and try everything while making sure you can’t be burned
that means
NEVER PAY BEFORE MURDER IS DONE, NEVER PROVIDE YOUR DETAILS AS CUSTOMER, ALWAYS HIDE YOUR IP
with those things in mind, YOU CANNOT BE SCAMMED AND YOU CANNOT BE ARRESTED
SO GO AND TRY EACH AND EVERY HIRE A HITMAN SITE FOR YOURSELF WHILE MAKING SURE YOU CAN’T BE RIPPED OFF IF YOU RUN ACROSS A SCAM OR A HONEYPOT
out of all you will find the legit ones yourself and you will have your order completed and then you pay
other than that fake sites won’t do any money because no one pays upfront
please also note that
1. FBI NSA CIA AND OTHER GOVERNMENTAL AGENCIES CAN’T CLOSE REAL HITMEN SITES, SO THEY WILL DO A DISINFORMATION CAMPAIGN AND LIE ABOUT REAL HITMEN SITES THAT THEY ARE FAKE IN ORDER TO DISCOURAGE CUSTOMERS FROM ORDERING
by doing this they save lives
2. WHEN YOU SEE MANY ARTICLES ABOUT A HITMAN SITE BEING FAKE, it actually means that IS REAL!!! AND THAT FBI AND JOURNALISTS ARE DOING DISINFORMATION!!!
If a site would truly be fake or a honeypot, NO JOURNALISTS WILL PUBLISH ARTICLES ABOUT IT BEING FAKE OR HONEYPOT BECAUSE NO JOURNALISTS WANT TO HELP MURDERERS BE SAFE FROM SCAMS!!!
FBI and journalists won’t report fake sites, because they want murderers to be trapped and scammed!
FBI and journalists will say about fake sites that are real!!!
FBI and journalists will say about honeypot sites that are real!!!
FBI and journalists will say about real sites that are fake to discourage customers from ordering and to save lives!!!
SO DON’T TRUST ARTICLES AND COMMENTS.
THE MORE ARTICLES YOU SEE SAYING A SITE IS FAKE, THE MORE IT MEANS IS REAL and that FBI and journalists are just desperate to scare people away from using it!!!
Remember, journalists are moral and etic people who love to save lives, not to help murderers, so they will never help murderers by telling them which hitmen site is a scam and which is real!!
They only pretend to tell, but they are lying to save lives and to trap customers by saying fake sites are real and real sites are fake!
So how do you ensure you don’t get scammed?
EASY!!! USE ANY HITMEN SITE YOU WANT, BUT MAKE SURE YOU NEVER PAY BEFORE MURDER IS DONE, AND NEVER PROVIDE YOUR CUSTOMER INFO! HIDE YOUR IP AND CLEAN TRACES ON YOUR COMPUTER
REMEMBER THE MEDIA AND INTERNET IS CONTROLLED BY GOVERNMENT AND THEY CAN ALWAYS ARREST EDITORS AND JOURNALISTS WHO HELP MURDERERS BY TELLING THEM WHICH HITMEN SITE IS TRULY REAL
BY SMART BE SAFE AND DON’T LET THESE ARTICLES FOOL YOU!!! SEE BEYOND THE ROWS SEE THEIR TRUE PURPOSE AND THAT IS TO SAVE LIVES BY LYING TO CUSTOMERS WHO WANT TO ORDER MURDER
