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.

For the record, I have never met Lance Portal, Aaron Flett, or the scammer David Huffman. When I saw this thread and that this scammer only lived less than 45 minutes away, I thought I'd offer any help I could in recovering the snakes and the money lance and Aaron are out for shipping. I have nothing to gain from helping Lance and Aaron, but it is the right thing to do. Someone once helped me out when I was scammed by someone in another state, and I got my money back (Thanks Chris Harper). The least I could do was to pass on the good deed. If we all work together, we can make some of these scammers think twice about their scams.
David

What a wonderful ending! Would have loved to have been a fly on the wall when this loser answered the door to the police!

It is the threads like these that prove what a powerful weapon the B.O.I. is against scammers and dirtbags in the hobby. I am glad to see you guys get your snakes back, and I hope the shipping money isn't far behind.

I'm not that tech-savy but what I did was hit "print screen" (on my keyboard it's shift+print screen) which placed the image into my clipboard. Then I pasted into a word doc (probably a step I could have left out), sized it how I wanted, copied and pasted into MS Paint, saved and uploaded into photobucket. I'm sure there's an easier way to do it, I just haven't figured it out yet.
