Scary Deep Web Stories That Actually Happened” Uploaded last 3 September 2016]
We are the Albanian Mafia. We are present in the USA (Rudaj Organization), in Europe and in Albania.
We have members in each and every country and we have expanded online as many other
organizations. We are using the security of DeepWeb and Bitcoin.
No undercover cops here. No risks of getting caught, because we are professional killers: We don’t ask
you for your name, we don’t want to know who you are are or where your live. Besa Mafia does not
need your credit card or bank account. You pay by Bitcoin to escrow, and money is held in escrow
until job is completed.
Our website is protected by Deep Web, our website IP is not public and Police and FBI can’t shut us
down. Our professional hitmen for hire do not disclose their identity and they do not meet customers.
They do the job and get payment.
Beat up or break bones

When the website was recently hacked, 38 different customers and 3-thousand personal messages
from a professional sounding company were leaked to the public.
One of the messages from a customer requests that the target gets beat up ‘badly so there will be
bruises and some blood but don’t to anything else’.
Another simply says, ‘I want her dead’ and goes on to discuss the price.
The owner of Besa Mafia has released an official statement declaring that the website was fake.
Whenever someone contacts them for a hit, the admin says, they send all of the information straight
to the local police department for review.
However, many people believe that this is just a cover up story, and that the Besa Mafia was a
legitimate murder-for-hire service.
Others believe that the Besa Mafia is completely unstoppable and undoubtedly continues to operate
to this very day.
Either way, if this website was to be believed at all, then the way they recruit new hitmen is by having
them commit a crime on video and submit it for the mafia to review and is having them commit a
crime on video and submit it for the mafia to review and approve of .

“Cannibalistic Desires”
Most people want to find someone that they can have children and grow old together with, but Arwin
Meiwes had a version of love that was much different.
He was obsessed with the idea of eating another man’s body.
In 2001, the German could not contain himself anymore and took to the Deep Web to fulfill his
darkest desires.
He found an online forum morbidly names the Cannibal Cafe that seemed perfect to satisfy his urges.
Although the disclaimer at the top of the website made it clear that the Cannibal Cafe was for
‘fantasies involving consenting adults’ only, Armin was absolutely serious when he posted a short
blurb outlining his peculiar tastes.
It read:
‘Looking for a well-built 18-to-30-year-old to be slaughtered and then consumed.’
Imagine Armin’s surprise when his inbox was instantly flooded with eager responses.
He later estimates that as many as 200 different people replied back, all of them happily agreeing to
be murdered and eaten.
Figuring out who was serious and who was roleplaying was a long and arduous process.
It took Armin months to interview and sort out potential recruits.
Bernd Brandes had typed a short but intimate response on the Cannibal Cafe forums that instantly
caught Armin’s attention.
‘I am 36 years old,’ he wrote. ‘175 cm and weight 72 kg’
He then added, ‘I hope you are really serious about it because I really want it.’
The two began messaging each other, and soon they had fallen in love with a passion and hunger that
only two people with a fetish for cannibalism could share.
Bernd lived nearby, and they arranged a date and time that was most convenient for him to be killed
and eaten.
The two could not be happier about the fatal relationship and regularly bantered back and forth.
On the day before their date, Bernd wrote ‘I’ll bring myself for breakfast’, at which point Armin
replied, ‘I’ll have an appetite - rely on it.’
Bernd arrived at Armin’s farmland estate and entered a soundproofed slaughter room.
Here, they discussed a mutual interest in computers while smoking cigarettes and drinking coffee.
It was as if they were old friends and nothing out of the ordinary was about to happen.
Bernd suddenly began to have a change of heart and wanted to leave.
He was persuaded at the last minute by his cannibal lover to stay.
They had physical relations with each other and then Bernd chased 20 sleeping pills with half a bottle
of liquor and prepared to die.
When he passed out a short time later, Armin put Bernd in a bathtub.
He set up a camera and recorded every last moment as he calmly removed Bernd’s genitals and fried
them to eat.
He then read a Star Trek novel as he waited for Bernd to die in the bathtub, checking his friend’s vital
signs every 15 minutes to see if he had finally passed.
When hours had passed by, he grew tired of waiting and stabbed his lover in the neck to hurry things
up.
Then he chopped him into pieces to save for later.
Oh, and he buried the head in his garden, too.
Armin later recounted to authorities in detail how he prepared for his first act of cannibalism.
First, he decorated the table with the nicest candles that he could find to set the right kind of mood.
Then he bit into a cut of rump steak that had been taken directly from Bernd’s back.
He described the taste of Bernd to authorities as pork, yet much stronger.
It was a taste he had yearned for over 40 years to taste.
He had first thought of eating someone when he was a small child.
Psychologists say that Armin and others like him sexualize cannibalism as a way to keep people in his
life forever.
As a child, Armin was abandoned by his entire family at a young age and grew very bitter as a result.
This was around the time that he began to think about eating people for the very first time at just 8
years old.
To put it very simply, eating people was Armin’s way of making sure that he could never be left by
them again.
You would think that Armin would have been satisfied for a while after this encounter, but he was not
done yet at all.
Emboldened by the relative ease of his recent kill, he quickly went back to the Deep Web to find more
people to devour.
Unsurprisingly, he eventually creeped out enough people with his confessions that one person alerted
the authorities and explained to them that a man was going around openly admitting to murder and
cannibalism online.
When police traveled to Armin’s farmhouse to investigate further, they could find nothing out of the
ordinary at first.
It seemed like he was going to get away with his crime.
When they looked at his freezer, however, they saw that it had a false bottom.
Underneath there was a weird-looking meat inside.
At first, Armin said that this was from a wild pig he had killed and slaughtered, but they quickly
determined that his was human flesh - Bernd had been frozen and was being saved for later.
At his trial, Armin said that the only thing he was guilty of was giving Bernd a nice death.
In fact, since they were both consenting to do this, Armin argued that no murder had taken place at
all.
This was a mercy killing instead, his lawyers argued.
They had Bernd on tape giving consent to be killed right up until the very last minute.
His ‘victim’ - if he could be called that - appeared at ease the entire time.
[A little disclaimer since the reason why I don’t always get to update research daily due to my Bar
Review sessions and day job, in criminal trials, the goal is either to find a way to acquit the accused of
the crime charged against him or have the accused convicted for a lesser crime. Apparently in
Germany, mercy killing has a shorter sentence than murder. I can’t that the same rules apply where I
am from though. - Jing]
A judge reluctantly agreed that this was technically not murder under the current laws, but rather
simply a case where two lunatics accidentally discovered each other and followed through with a sick
plan.
Still, Armin was sentenced to a mere 8 and a half years in prison at first.
Later, he was put on a retrial and given a life sentence.
Although this story happened 15 years ago [at the time of the clip’s upload], there are still plenty of
websites centered around cannibalism.
Some of them are how-to guides for preparing bodies to eat, and others offer advice for disposing of
the non-edible parts.
One can only imagine how many people have actually put the advice to good use, and how many
more Armins there are out in the Deep Web looking to meet their Bernd.
One last thing: in an ironic twist, news outlets have since reported that the cannibal has allegedly
gone vegetarian.
