Kieth Cantore Scam Artist! Please help!

If someone was a friend of Keith's family (Lee), and was concerned at all for Keith. Wouldn't it be the right thing to contact Keith's family and have them call me. I can understand if he did not want to give out private information initially. But let them call me. All I want is a fair shake on every deal! If someone could please also contact Lee Watson and ask for his help would also be appreciated.

Thanks again. Jim O. You have been a great help. I feel the BOI was created for episodes like this. Herpers helping each other.

Sounds like Keith should make room for some family joining him possibly. Definitely follow through on prosecution. At least you do have some names and info to pass along and get things rolling. You will be amazed when others, with differeing titles and terms of address, talk to the same people you have already and are able to reveal further information.

Well like Jim O. said, hopefully there are several BOI members that will pass along this message and thread to Keith's family at a minimum. I don't think I have ever heard anything bad about Lee but was kind of bothered when he wouldn't help out.

Ooops. I meant pass along this message and thread to Lee Watson. Of course, if anyone on the BOI knows Keith Cantore or his family, please have them call me. Thanks.

Oh by the way. PayPal suuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuucks! You should never accept a credit card payment through paypal. I mean the way it was explained to me. Anyone can order an expensive animal or item via the internet use Paypal and pay with a credit card. Receive the item. Keep that item or sell it. Call your credit card company and dispute it. Then get your money back! My advice is when you sell an animal get a wire transfer or money order or cashier's check. Wait until the funds are available and then ship. Unfortuneately, not everyone plays fair!

I was just wondering if there is any limitation on time for you to be able to charge back to your credit card. Five plus or six months seems like an awfully long time. If that's the case you're never secure with any transaction.
What legal recourse is available against his credit card company? They took your money. Just wondering out loud(or in print).

Paypal dose have a "Seller Protection Policy" what happened to you has happened to me once but not by that person. I received my money back from Paypal and then Paypal goes after them for fraud. I copied and pasted the Seller Protection Policy below and I hope everything works out for you.

<Copied and pasted> Seller Protection Policy
What does it mean if a transaction is Seller Protection Policy eligible?

If a transaction is Seller Protection Policy eligible, you will be protected from charge backs due to fraud when you follow these guidelines:

Have a Verified Business or Premier account
Ship to the address on the Transaction Details page
Provide timely shipment
Retain reasonable proof of delivery that can be tracked online
Ship tangible goods <copied and pasted>

Michael, Monee is only 2 hours from me. If you can locate the tortoise, I will gladly go pick him up for you. We can then work out the shipping arrangements at your discretion. Let me know.

As for Lee Watson, his show just got cancelled due to new zoning laws etc. He is looking to move it or join up with an existing one. But, I would think there are enough people who either know Lee or frequented his show to put some pressure on him. I will PM him and direct him to this thread.
