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.

"ANSON WONG" - info & update???
Hi,
I am hoping to get some feedback on Keng Liang "Anson" Wong.
... A simple search on the Net of his name will tell you what he was doing a few years back, where he was doing it, and why he was doing it ...
I would like to hear from anyone who knows of the whats, wheres and whys of Anson Wong TODAY.
- Have you met him?
- Done business with him?
- What are your opinions? etc...
He basically spearheaded an international smuggling ring that illegally imported endangered reptiles, black market trading, laundering money etc... got caught, did his time, and apparently now back out & dealing in the reptile industry again.
- How about his suppliers, and customers?
- Did he deceive anyone he worked with?
- Has he ever been involved in theft?
- Does a leopard change its spots?!....
I've only read what the media has splashed out, so I am interested to hear from people who actually know (of) him through business etc....
Thanks!
Allison Mason

search the BOI
I think that I remember some mention of him, possibly indirectly in another thread, on the BOI in the past few months. It may have had some connection to his wife (don't remember her name) or somebody else who had some sort of connection to him/her. Hopefully others will be able to clarify or else a search here will turn up more.

no way
Please tell us that you are actually not considering doing business with this felon....
And, after you get ripped-off, dont whine about it here. You head plenty of heads-up notice.

ANSON WONG...
No, he has contacted me.
...He said through KS, but my account is not set up with the email he used... and he avoided my question when I asked him.
I feel a little anxious and suspicious, and wanted to see if anything came up as a response that I could put my finger on.
I had never heard of him until a few days ago.

Alison,
Mr. Wong contacted me a few months back wanting me to start importing from him. We informed him that we do not send money up front to any exporters any longer and if he was willing to work those terms we would proceed from there. He agreed to these terms and informed me of the animals he was able to export. Well after receiving the list of animals he would be able to export to me we placed an order of animals. He said he was heading to Borneo (Malaysian part) and a few other countries to collect animals to export to me. Well after he said he was back in his country and had the animals arriving shortly we never heard from him again on the shipment or animals. I have e-mailed him a few times since with no responses back from him. I can't say anything bad about him from this but it sure seems suspicious to me. So I can't say for sure if a Leopard has changed his spots or not. I can suggest that if you are going to do business with him you should proceed with caution specially with his past.
