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.

Most of these scammers; or at least this fool, have no idea what we're selling. So they copy the ad title and paste it to the email. The word 'Lightbulb' was the Lightbulb emoji at the beginning of the ad title. I've been attaching an emoji to all my ad titles because of this.

Hi,
The pricing has not changed, as far as I know they're the only ones available in the country.

I've been getting lots of texts and call from scammers lately also. Its obvious they have no idea who what we have for sale. Texts are written very poorly and are formated the same way. Got 2 last night from the same number. They read like this...
Gonatodes fuscus - Dwarf Geckos - 0.0.2 for $150 Still up for sale?let me know the price
The thing is, the price is listed on my ads. The couple times in the past that I have replied, they always need my name and address to me a send money order or something.
The numbers are always different when they call. They don't leave messages. I know it's a scammer because my phone shows that the number called twice at the same exact time when I actually only had them call once. Weird eh?
It's lame this keeps happen because I get most of my business selling animals through texts and calls. Now I won't answer unknown numbers. I could post all the phones numbers from these people but I don't think it matters.

Give them the address of your local sheriff or police department so they waste time and postage sending the fake cashier's check.

Everybody? Lol, I had no idea where Google's headquarters are located. Anyways, isn't having the IP address of some value? - or is that's Google's too?
