Any product/service directly and publicly marketed to criminals is a honeypot (or will soon be). There is no reason for a real business (legal or illegal) to prefer criminal customers in good faith as all they bring is problems.

There are many agencies around the globe that set these up and continue to operate after siezing them to catch the low hanging fruit criminals. Its a lot easier/cheaper to lure criminals expose themselves directly than it is to actually investigate/track/hunt them down. Its pretty much the quantity over quality approach.
