I just got one of them today for EVERY Colubrid ad I have on-line right now (5 in total).... Any time I get one of these now, I have been giving them a three-word reply.... GFY !!

And they STILL keep sending them.... go figure....

Neil

lol james brown. does anybody even fall for these things? seems like there is a new one every week.

Hey Neil,You should send them an E-mail like this:

"Hello,my name is Luke Skywalker,and I hail from planet MF.I am very interested in your( Go F@%*k Yourself)I would like to purchase,payment in wooden nickels.Please ge back to me about yor(Go F@%*k Yourself) as soon as today.
Thank you,Darth Vader

Ha! Ha! Ha!

Roger.... that will just confuse him because you say your name is Luke Skywalker, but you sign it Darth Vader??.... You should just have him forward it to Princess Leah!!....lol

A couple of months back, in another thread like this, I posted that I once sent back a reply like this (to paraphrase)....

Dear Sir,
I'm expecting a cashiere's check from a friend of mine in South Africa who's going to be sending me a sizeable amount.... I will have him forward it to you, and when you get it, send me the difference in a Postal Money Order and I will send you the snakes....

What gets me is the fact that if nobody ever believed them, they wouldn't continue to do it, so, it's obvious that SOMEONE was stupid enough to actually follow through with it and get burned big time!

Neil

They always ask me for information that is clearly already IN the ad or available at a link provided.......

I always write back and tell them the information they need can be found at this link: http://www.ebolamonkeyman.com/ There is a group of folks that enjoy messing with these scammers. This site is one of the most "out there".

I just got a m/o the other day from these guys, then came the send the money quick email. I told him I would send the money as soon as the animal was p/u. Never heard from him again. Craig

can you post a photo of the money order, I was just wondering how fake these things look or if they are believable

I am sorry, it is a check not a m/o. They are VERY real looking. The bank would cash it in a heartbeat. Problem is, they would figure it out, and you would pay. Craig
