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.

Jeff Bell and or Janiece McMurray placed an order for $538 off our website on March 13 2018. We told them the lows were to cold for home delivery and sent the address to her closest local hub and said we could ship there safely. She responded back she did not have a car and it would have to be home delivery and we responded we would gladly wait and check the weather next week in hopes of temps warm enough to ship safely to her residence. It happens a lot that suddenly once they realize the safety of the animal is our #1 concern and the convenience of the customer is a close 2nd to that her excuse for not being able to do hub pickup was no longer valid and she agreed to pick up the next day at the hub. Things went normal and she picked up the snake at the hub the next day as planned.
fast forward to March 28th 2018 we get a notification from square that the payment was disputed due to no knowledge of the transaction. Janiece had posted pictures of her new snake on facebook the day she received him and the patterns can be matched to be the snake we shipped. The billing address on the invoice matched the shipping address she requested us ship to. We emailed the customer in hopes it was an honest mistake but if it was an honest mistake it would have been a simple fix by calling her bank and reporting to them that the charge was in fact valid. Instead she insisted on not canceling the dispute but making payments via paypal or with money order. To me this screams something is fishy and likely she used a stolen credit card and is only making offers of payments to avoid us or the bank filing a police report since she showed her ID at fedex on camera and we have all her personal information (as well does the card holders bank at this point). Honest mistake or not she has not made us whole and likely is just another thief and should be on everyones do not sell to list to avoid giving her free snakes as well.

Well this took an unexpected turn. Upon showing her Roberts detective work that showed she has pulled this exact scam in the past and letting her know one more time I will eat the 538 but I WILL be attempting to prosecute she asked for a paypal invoice (instead of calling the card holder bank and reporting the chargeback as accidental) The paypal invoice was sent to the same email address and that is registered to a totally different name, Chase Grayson (totally not a scammer perfectly normal to have like 4 names you go by)
That did not work so she got another invoice, this time through square, and she paid that immediately. Now waiting game to see if that one is disputed as well. I will update the thread if a charge back is initiated on it as well. Thank you for the help Robert.
