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'm still interested in who Jonathan is, and how he fits into this. He felt a need to create an account to observe this thread, made some interesting comments (here, and in private), then disappeared when pressed for proof of identity.
I guess I might as well scratch the one question thing, because more keep popping up. Earlier, you said that the Mike you referred to is Mike Cogar...the Mike Cogar account here said his real name is Sherman, Mike is just a nickname. Are we talking about the same person?

I forgot about that.

Ok I know what it's like to have a corrupted family, but this web is getting very tangled and confused. If I'm reading correctly then your half brother concocted the whole scam, then paid you to take the package and mail it, then you deposited the money in your account. Besides that your only other involvement is that an iPhone went wonky and your brother sends e-mails from your address. I know I'm missing details, but there is a bunch of BS to sort through, and that shat is thick and slippery.
Why not change your password?
Why not try to protect your privacy, name, reputation from an unsavory family members?
I have more questions but I need to sort the BS first. I don't mean to sound rude, or mean, I'm just trying to understand.

Now Scot comes into this thread for the fact anthony was at a Hamburg pa reptile expo show with myself, and a few other people when he approached vendors to trade the bloods there he traded this guy scot f the bloods. Scot f is a reputable breeder at every pa show and was not aware these blood pythons were "stolen or not paid for yet". Scot simply took them as a trade from anthony c Pappas who he thought was a honest guy looking to trade some blood pythons that belonged to him.

Sam was trading his bloods for cages. So here's a question. Where did the Vision cages come from that Anthony was trading?

Here are some updates on this thread.
"Kate Ellis" - Layla0511 appeared on this thread on 11/25/14, having registered the account the same day.
"Kate" showed up in what appeared to be a case to:
1. Clear her name
2. Connect missing dots/links in the scamming
3. Provide proof of the scammers ID
4. Correct the wrongs committed specifically on Rick.
Several members asked "Kate" direct questions on this thread. Several communicated with "Kate" via PM. "Kate" was willing to drag on conversations filled with blurry vague answers and strung on promises.
Kate offered and promised to provide IDs of the scammer(s) = Never happened
Kate promised to send Rick $600 by close of Dec 3rd = Never happened
The last series of black and white questions left on the thread have been left unanswered and completely ignored.
What would be the logical conclusion as to why "Kate" never produced any real solid answers and never produced anything that "she" promised?

Kate was the scammer incognito, trying to clear his alias name.... or Kate is Kate and is involved with the scam

There is a real Kate Ellis, but my opinion is that the real woman has nothing to do with any of this. She may just have the misfortune to know the scammer, maybe just in passing.
I'm not even positive that Pappas is his real name.

Here is some additional information:
1st name: Anthony Pappas (banned)
2nd name: Mike Cogar (banned)
3rd name: Johnathan Pierce (banned) This is the person who in post #395 claimed we play favorites on the BOI. We don't, but nice try at a stab.
4th name: Kate Ellis
So if "Kate Ellis" is from Matawan, NJ, how is it "she" is using the same IP address as the scammer from Elizabethtown, PA?
I agree with Melissa. In my opinion, Kate Ellis is not involved with this. I suspect, the scammer has her ID but that is about it.

At this point and with the lack of follow up, I think it is fair to say that;
Kate is at best someone who has enabled this person to scam multiple individuals, lending her name to someone who she knows to play fast and loose with the truth in business dealings. And helping him facilitate those deals.
At worst, she is an active participant and getting money for her help with the scams while attempting to muddy the waters when people started to catch on.
Either way, there are just too many moving pieces with different relationships and names constantly changing. There hasn't been a good faith effort from anyone implicated to clear their name, or help out in getting to the bottom of this.
