Hello!
Either you have not registered on this site yet, or you are registered but have not logged in. In either case, you will not be able to use the full functionality of this site until you have registered, and then logged in after your registration has been approved.
Registration is FREE, so please register so you can participate instead of remaining a lurker....
Please note that the information requested during registration will be used to determine your legitimacy as a participant of this site. As such, any information you provide that is determined to be false, inaccurate, misleading, or highly suspicious will result in your registration being rejected. This is designed to try to discourage as much as possible those spammers and scammers that tend to plague sites of this nature, to the detriment of all the legitimate members trying to enjoy the features this site provides for them.
Of particular importance is the REQUIREMENT that you provide your REAL full name upon registering. Sorry, but this is not like other sites where anonymity is more the rule.
Also your TRUE location is important. If the location you enter in your profile field does not match the location of your registration IP address, then your registration will be rejected. As such, I strongly urge registrants to avoid using a VPN service to register, as they are often used by spammers and scammers, and as such will be blocked when discovered when auditing new registrations.
Sorry about all these hoops to jump through, but I am quite serious about blocking spammers and scammers at the gate on this site and am doing the very best that I can to that effect. Trust me, I would rather be doing more interesting things with my time, and wouldn't be making this effort if I didn't think it was worthwhile.

She then posted an ad on Facebook with the same snake saying it was still caramel and claimed it to be foulsham line. After being corrected againshe said it was a mistake and get husband is angry at her for making it. The ad was then deleted after people asked for a video to show the animals size

She is text book scammer, she needs to be stopped, people need to be warned sorry you do not agree with this but again you are new so maybe it does not matter to you but it does for most of us.

I may be new here but certainly not new the hobby. I have been doing this for about 22 years.I am quite adept at spotting scams and thats why I have never been scammed. Yes, this was clearly a scam but after that??? Much of what was said is useful and valid. What I took an issue with was posting her licensure here when you don't know 100% that she scammed anyone or that it was even her. There are a lot of crazy people on the Internet (no shi*) and posting this info here where anyone could casually peruse it doesn't seem ethical to me. Maybe I'm too sensitive but I personally know how long and difficult it is to get a nursing license. In todays day and age anyone can be an Internet Batman.

I almost committed on a trade deal with this scammer. I don't come on here to get entertainment either, I come on here to find any helpful info, and it surely served its purpose. I was close to sending this individual close to $4,000 worth of BPs.

None of what I said previously was directed at you Milo. Yes, it was clearly a scam and I'm glad you weren't taken by it.

I see zero problem with posting her license info. Public information. Reap what you sow: you try to rip-off internet-savvy folks and then hope that the sycophants will backpeddle for you and redirect the topic of your attempted crimes

Justin, I'm aware that nothing that you had previously had said was directed towards me, and none of it was taken that way either. I was simply stating my thoughts on some of the statements you had made on that post. Yes, I do agree with you that landing a career in the nursing field isn't easy, and you'd figure why would someone risk throwing it all away trying to scam people out of money or animals. Hopefully it isn't Amy Polly or whatever her name is, but as of right now, and indications lead to "YES".. unfortunately for her we have a lot of computer savvy individuals on here, and I for one am very grateful for that.

I also see no problem with posting a scammer's personal info here. People think far too often that attempting defraud people online won't ever come back to bite them, and obviously Amy Polly is finding out that is not the case here.
Pretending to know if she is or isn't posting is pretty ridiculous. All signs point to it being her, just because the person said they were ex boyfriend, obviously doesn't mean thats true. This person hasn't displayed the best ability to be honest so why take them at their word on *anything*?

I agree with you 100%!!! She hasn't been honest on here nor on what others have said about her FB postings either. I suppose her ex boyfriend also created a fake FB account pretending to be her.. C'mon now! Lol

Once cornered here, the MyrtleHerps account refers to his male genitalia and says he is the ex-boyfriend...
http://www.myrtlebeachonline.com/new...128073614.html
Myrtle Beach police say a woman returning to her car in a parking lot at Broadway at the Beach was met with a nasty sight around 1:40 a.m. Saturday.
The seats in her car had been urinated on. Its windshield wipers had been broken off. The license plate was gone and scratch marks trailed the side of the car and its mirrors. Items had been stolen from inside the once-locked car and the woman said she knew who did it, according to a police report.
And an interesting call from the man she identified may have sealed the fate of a pending arrest in this case.
The 43-year-old woman told police she was walking back to her car to deposit some items when she noticed her ex-boyfriend moving around her vehicle; when her friend called out to him, he took off, the report stated.
She told police she had been having issues with the man ever since they broke up and that he must have used the spare key he knew was hidden to gain access to the car, according to the report. No forced entry was observed, police noted.
The woman told officers that her purse containing her wallet with an ATM card and Social Security card, eye glasses, makeup, Tylenol, paperwork, a black Northface jacket and a Garmin GPS were all stolen from the car.
While police were still on the scene, the woman’s ex-boyfriend contacted the police department to see if any charges would be pressed against him. Officers noted in the report that he knew they were out with the victim and was concerned about being charged.
Joseph Lee Zimmerman, 46, was charged with petty larceny, breaking into a motor vehicle and malicious injury to personal property estimated at more than $2,000, but less than $10,000.

He looks like the kind of guy that would use that language here. She may be the scammer but I think it was him. I said earlier possibly son or boyfriend. I hope if it isn't her no more damage was done to her by sending info to nursing board. Looks like she's used fb sparingly.

When a nursing board receives a report, they do an investigation. It is in depth, plenty of notice is given if they choose to have a meeting (sometimes the issue is cleared up by telephone or other means), if there is a meeting the person being investigated may have an attorney present.
The function of a nursing board is to protect the people in that state. If the person is innocent the case is closed. If he or she is not, often there is remedial education, assistance, etc. before warnings or action to a license.
