It's all in good faith, and you can't trust criminals because, well, criminals lol.
That said, on the other hand, if someone wants repeat business they will do what you pay them for. It's why ransomware works - if a ransomware guy doesn't unlock things after being paid, nobody will pay ransomware guys.
TL;DR like most business, it's based on trust.
Anyway, anyone want to buy some secret documents? Just send me 50K worth of bitcoin, you can trust me.
