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.

Juan Infante. BAD GUY
My name is Damon Gasporra and i am a small breeder in SoCal. Juan was a friend of mine for several years with whom i have done many dealings. About seven months ago Juan told me he had a customer that wanted a pair of pastel jungle balls and asked me if i had any available. I told him i had a pair of yearlings i would part with for $1300. He ran the price by his customer and the deal was set. I met Juan to give him the snakes to deliver to the customer and he was to pay me after he picked up the money from the customer.(as i have done with Juan many times before) I even went so far as to knock the price down to $1200 so Juan could make more money on the deal. I haven`t seen Juan since. Juan hasn`t returned my calls for six months. I am now taking the proper legal actions to get my money. If Juan is willing to do this to a "friend", i don`t know what he is willing to do to a total stranger. Thanks for your time.

Damon, I'm sorry to hear that...
Looks like you are in my neck of the woods too..
Do you have any contact information on him?
Some info so that if he does come around by other avenues that people can know it is him?

Damon,You should have at least have gotten a check from him to hold.I see more people getting riped off lately because they trust someone to be onset.Not going to happen.At least with a check you would have something legal to go on to try to collect your $.I hope you get your money and have some type of proof that he owes you.Ron

Heather, i have his phone number and i know where lives and works, but i don`t want to post any personal info on Juan just yet. As i said he was a friend of mine and it doesn`t seem right. But he primarily brokers animals and he is in and out of the hobby. I don`t think he has been doing any selling for quite a while now. You can email me for more details.
Ron, you are completely right, i should`ve gotten some sort of proof of the transaction. But i have done many transactions with Juan and he the last person i would`ve ever thought could do something like this. If you can`t trust your friends...... I won`t make the mistake again

Damon, is this the same Juan that worked for Jay Brewer at Prehistoric Pets in Fountain Valley??
And if you know where he works and lives...then why not camp on his door step or place of employment

welcome to the club
Juan owes me money also. I gave him some boa morphs about 7 months ago to sell for me. He said he knows a guy in Texas that buys from him. I have done this before with him but now he has gone missing with...........
1.1 2005 albinos
1.1 2005 DH Sunglow
7-8 ADULT Salmons
several 2005 hypos that are 66%
He refuses to answer any on my phone calls.

Laura it is the same Juan that used to work at P.P. And i could go to his work but i can`t make him give me the money. I don`t want to be the one that ends up in jail. I have thought about it though. Thanks, Damon Gasporra
