Garret Smith ( Scammer )

But there are laws in the world. In Germany its against the law to openly (and yes, this treat the whole world can see, not only members) publish personal datas of people. Not my own, those I can publish everywhere, but from others. And I stay with the law.
So, if you are really so interested, just use one of that ways. I will be more then happy, to send them to you. And then you have my allowance to publish the documents here. Or at least write what you saw.
But, as it would take away much fun from you, you would´t do that.

And it is not my part to comment on any of the other things here, that I either have no knowledge of or are not involved. That seems to be part of your hobby. There is a speech in Germany: Stecke deine Nase nicht in Dinge, die Dich nichts angehen. Free translated: Don´t press your nose in things that are not of your concern.
Actually kids already learn that.

Hope you write me an email or use another way, so I can help you with your insatiable thurst on knowledge.

Why not send that info to the OP?

I don't see anything to connect the two accounts. Also this thread was started 06-23-2004, I don't know which person they are referencing.

I do know in those threads that another person stated he was selling everything and leaving for college. Doesn't sound like the right age for this Garrett.

But a year later from that first thread is when the a thread for this Garrett Smith (without a doubt) was posted.

Which references Chino and the "turtle man" name.

Looks like he found a new "turtleman" overseas.

What happen to garret no reply? Doesn't wanna confront the articles i posted? Is it because there true or is it a huge coincidence that another garret smith from chico who is also a importer got caught smuggling tortoises?

Dennis,

I was thinking there might be a correlation.

THANK YOU!!

It is worth mentioning that Garrett is currently online. I find it odd that the Garrett whose modus operandi of lashing out when confronted with questions has suddenly fallen silent given the severe allegations against him in this thread. It is also worth mentioning that his account in 2004 is different from his account now.

For those of you who exchanged money with Garrett and feel the transaction went poorly, don't forget to leave a negative seller rating (if you are a contributor). That way a negative number will show next to his karma rating that may serve as a word of caution to future potential customers of his.

Well Michael has Garret made this right? Either a refund or as ordered animals delivered? Can't think after some 112 posts and all the mess here Garrett has still to resolve this so let us all know what's occurred so this can all be put to rest.

No josh unfortunately he hasn't even made a attemp at all to make anything right doesnt surprise me coming from a scammer and now to know a possible ex smuggler obviously by him avoiding this post points to all directions that he was smuggling tortoises 10 years ago . Last contact we had was that Facebook msg i posted of him saying im always " too stoned " . I already accepted the fact im at lost for my $6500 .

Think its time i become a contributing member vanessa
