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.

Johnpaul Basung - Better Life - Importer / Exporter from Cameroon...
I've been exchanging emails with a man that I met through trade holdings and he has seemed legit, but he has a few things that I question. He says he has Albino Iguana's and I was fairly certain that Tom Crutchfield and a few others were the only breeders of these and I don't really think they would be exported at the prices he is advertising.
So I was just wondering if anyone has heard of this guy.

That is what he sent me to contact him. Is this another scammer? Or has anyone heard of this exporter from Cameroon?

I was first sent something with a lot more animals on it all with reasonable prices, but this is what I was sent that made me question him.
I have decided that he is more than likely a scammer, but if anyone has done business with him (having animals exported to them) I may change my mind.

Also, I don't think he has a website. I got his information through a trade holdings website that links to a bunch of importers / exporters for different items.

Confirmed by Tom to be a scam and that the picture was taken in his yard and the guy has no right to the images.
