So some one had posted bigger aldabras cheap on here a few days ago. I did not catch the name it was posted under but it had a phone number to call or text. The number is (401)859-2936. This is a Rhode Island Number but the people said they were in Texas.
The email address is
manning.johnson@aol.com
The original ad stated they had a "B" Grade larger Aldabra up for $1200.00 and stated to contact for pics. Curious so I did and I started getting texts at 430 am.
They requested an email address so they could send a pic. After several hours of not responding I got numerous text asking if I was there. I gave my email address and got tons of adult aldabra pics. When asked where the "B" grade pic was I got in very poor broken english that was to get people interested. I asked for references they said they had none but would be willing to complete and "fill our paperwork and send to me proving they have been transfered into my ownership" and I was to sign and mail back with payment and they would return it with the tortoise/tortoises.
Jut for fun I asked them if they had the tortoises with them. They said yes. I asked to them to write on a piece of paper today is 4/10, hold it in front of the tortoise and take a pic. The attached picture was what I received. Now how can you lay the paper on top of a pic or computer screen and think we are this dumb! Just in case anyone was thinking on getting in on this too good to be true deal DON'T. As always be careful and research everything! I hope nobody got scammed from these. Also if a moderator could check the posts, it was 2 days ago and see if they can block these I'm sure overseas (bad at their job)scam artist that would be great. Enjoy the pic as it makes me smile everytime I see is. Idiots!
