Escrow Policy
All transactions through TALMAR operate on a strict pay-after-completion model. We do not request or accept advance payments under standard protocol — this eliminates the possibility of scams and safeguards both client and contractor. Direct payments are only accepted in rare, high-trust cases, and only when all associated risks are clearly understood and explicitly accepted by the client.
External Escrow Acceptance
Customers may use a trusted third-party escrow service of their choice. We support Monero, Bitcoin and Ethereum escrows, provided they meet the following requirements:
- Anonymous Access: The escrow must operate exclusively over Tor, without requiring any personal data, KYC, or identity verification.
- Illegal Service Compliance: The escrow must explicitly allow transactions involving black market services, including contract enforcement and removals.
- No Scam Reports: The service must have a clean history. If any scam accusations or unresolved disputes are found, it will be rejected.
- Security Standards: End-to-end encryption and minimal data retention are mandatory.
Internal Escrow Availability
For clients preferring a more controlled and discreet process, TALMAR offers a private in-house escrow service. This option ensures tighter operational security and eliminates third-party dependencies. Usage is optional but strongly recommended for high-risk contracts.
- Streamlined Process: Managed directly by our team for faster response times and clearer accountability.
- Full Discretion: No external parties involved. All communication and settlement remain entirely within our encrypted infrastructure.
- Trust-Based Access: Internal escrow is reserved for vetted clients or those operating under verified pseudonyms with clean records.
- Risk Disclosure: Clients must acknowledge operational risk before funds are held — there are no exceptions or reversals once terms are agreed.
How It Works
- After placing an order and submitting target details, the client may inform us of the external escrow they wish to use.
- We will review the escrow for compliance and security. If approved, we will authorize its use.
- The client must then create the escrow transaction and provide a unique identifier (view code, transaction ID, or signed message) proving funds are reserved.
- The escrow transaction must clearly reference the service type and target identity to avoid confusion or substitution.
Important Notes
- No job will begin until proof of funds in escrow is provided.
- We do not intervene in third-party escrow disputes. Choose your escrow provider wisely.
- Failure to follow escrow protocol will result in order cancellation without further communication.
Trust is earned through protocol. Anonymity is preserved through discipline.
