Marcell Hawkins ??? anyone dealt with or know of him?

hello,

has anyone dealt with Marcell Hawkins or know about him concerning reptiles?

specifically for salvator?

thanks,
jonathan pickerl

Where is his ad? Also is there contact info, email address, phone #, or a location for him?

He is selling on the Monitor Classifieds page of FB. His page states he is from California, but that’s about it... No page on Fauna that I could find...

He is selling a T- het albino salvator that he “accidentally produced”. Stated he produced some visuals as well, but they are sold... pretty vague info about where he got them. That would be quite the score & I hope it’s true! Nervous about giving away that kind of cash to vague info to someone I have never heard of...

Jonathan,
Ask him for references, email, phone number, where he got his critters and then bring that info here.
If he readily provides information that can be checked, he just may be new. If however he refuses info requests and has an ad that is bordering on the too-good-to-be-true, then walk away from the deal.

Good job using the BOI Jonathan.
When running searches on potential members, here is are a few hints for future reference.
1. Go to "Members List" link above.
2. Go to "Search Members" button on the right.
3. Use the drop down button and select "Advanced Search".
4. In the "Full Name" field type "Hawkins".
5. This will pull up all members with last name Hawkins, you can scan for a "Marcell". There isn't a "Marcell" but there is a "Marcel" from Riverside California who had some newbie questions about monitors. Probably your person. There are two dormant accounts, but they still give you some little clues into him.

Good luck.

robert walker, you are the man!!! i performed that search, but i didn't try just his last name... spelling his first differently now?
hmmm.....

thanks!

Looks like a scammer...

Pics were of Kevin / NERD’s T- adult...

Marcel stated that he worked for Eliot’s pet shop, where the T-‘a were produced... I called & they never heard of him...

He got banned from the monitor classifieds on FB

FYI: another account was just registered for Marcel, no last name. I've included a link to this thread on his profile. Mhawk_6

His email address for PayPal was...

Hello I’m marcel I’ve provided many times the number of my boss where I accidentally produced these het Albino water monitors, me I never took any photos but the one I took home. I can provide the number for you to call again? I even asked Kevin for advice and he blocked me. I don’t understand what the deal is with reptile breeders killing the new guy and that’s exactly what I am I am new, no background on breeding monitors but pythons I’ve bred n sold but never posted it to Facebook. I’m trying this water monitor thing and would like some support. Photos are of what my boss has send me of the adult albino so I can provide his number to speak with him. I am also in the process of obtaining some black dragons so please let me know what’s going on and how I can get out of this hole I don’t have time trying to scam anyone I work at the hospital. I’m a reptile lover so let’s work together please? Feel free to message me and if you want the owner of the reptile shop that this took place I can provide his personal number just let me know thank you.
