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.

I've said it before, if you and the rest of those he owes, will contact the DA'S office there in Butte County California, which is the county Chico is in, someone will look into it.
I spoke with the DA'S office there personally, filled them in on what I know about Garrett Smith, and those he owes, and was told that's FRAUD, (DAH!) and I was assured someone will look into to this situation, BUT, it MUST come from the victims themselves.
So, with that said, in state, that's you Michael, you'll call the Fraud Line at 1-866-323-7283. State your case.
Out of state, that's Jimmy, Maria, & Charlie, and any one else he owes, you'll call direct to the DA'S office at 1-530-538-7411 state your case, and they'll direct you to the fraud unit.
So what are you all waiting for? Let your fingers do the walking, and make this Con-Artist pay up.
Come on, he's filled each of you with BS, Lies, & excuses thus far, do you all think, all his latest BS, Lies, & excuses, are the truth, come on people get REAL.
MAKE THE CALL! or continue to lay there, do nothing, and get nothing!

Looks like the smuggler is going to need a scoundrel of an attorney to get him out of this mess.

I have been following this thread since posted and I have to say. Cant believe someone like him can do this to however many people and still get away with it. Who knows how much money he has come up doing this and still get away with it. This will all catch up to him, karma is a b. Wish you all get your money back or see this guy thrown in jail.

His fraudulent, despicable, business practices, are about to come to an end!
I'm the last person he should of got on the wrong side of, but he did, and now, I'm in it, until those he owes are PAID IN FULL, or he's ARRESTED for FRAUD! PERIOD!
Frogman, if you thought peeking at this thread here and there, and hiding behind the scene, this was going to disappear, or fade away, You're DEFINITELY DELUSIONAL! It's here until you pay everyone in full, or go to jail for FRAUD, or both. PERIOD!
It's time to pay the piper!

The only reason he is getting away with it is because the only people pursuing him are BOI patrons and not his victims. "This will catch up to ho him" and "karma is a 'b'" is just talk. What are YOU going to do about it? Did you call the number Lynn submitted here. If not, why? What the hell is everyone waiting for!!! You're not talking pennies here. I'm sick and tired of going to bat for people who won't do the right thing. If you all never see a friggin' dime from this scammer, IT'S YOUR OWN FAULT! You people are making victims of yourselves. Wake up!

Just a thought at this point. Perhaps the people that are claiming to Lynn that they are victims are full of it. Why else not speak up here.
Lynn,
Have any of these victims provided you with any type of proof of their claims? Like, screen shot of that paypal refund or anything? I don't doubt you at all. Just possibly a few are getting you revved up over this to watch it unfold. Like I said I don't doubt you or your passion in this case, I was simply wondering if any of those you have been in contact have provided you with any proof of their claims.

Scott,
As I've stated in past posts, I've talked extensively to Michael & Charlie by phone, and have no reason to doubt what I was told by either.
What reason would either have, to BS about frogman ripping them off for an extremely large amount of money?? ($6500 X 2= $13000)
Frogman himself has been here, and stated he received $6500 from Michael, for the Pakistan deal, but didn't owe Michael because he was his partner in the deal.
On the flip side of that coin, John Riportella sent him $2500 on the same Pakistan deal, and 4 months later frogman refunded him, his $2500.
In addition, frogman has been here, and stated he's going to post proof, of SEVERAL Situations, Bank wire transfers, copies of import permits, messages from his so called contact in Pakistan, the list goes on, and has NEVER posted, a single thing.
On the flip side of that coin, frogman has been asked (by several) to post proof, of any of his claims, many times. That to has NEVER happened either.
I guess what I'm trying to say is, if this was a rouge by the "victims" wouldn't it of come out in the wash after ALL this????(this thread)
If it were I, I would of posted PROOF a long time ago. PERIOD!
Scott, curious, if you read this thread, where would you come up with that scenario??

He tells me he has me blocked, so he can't read my posts, the same way he promises those he owes. ALL LIES!
NO BACK BONE, and continues to act like a child, (Ms Peterson) He'll post behind the scenes, but he won't post here.

Chris - I don't know if you've ever been unlucky enough to deal with the civil court system, but if you ever have to the first bit of advice that you will receive from an attorney is SHUT UP.
