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.

Yes he was to do a trade with me , I sent him the snakes and he was to ship me a parrot the same day!, Parrot was never shipped! This has been about a month ago. I tried to contact him several times with no response to my emails. I talked with the real Phillip Slack this morning,He confirmed what I feared! He is looking for him also. Why did you do business with him as well?? He conacted me through a post for a trade on here, so I thought I would warn people! Thanks Angela Boland

Do you have copy's of the emails that were exchanged? You did the trade without speaking to this person and just found out the person you called was not the one who initiated the trade? Do you have any other documentation to support your claim? Do you have the address of the person you talked to on the phone and where the package was shipped? Are these the same addresses if so?

Yeap I have every email that ever went out between us, and had talked to him on the phone several times before the trade was made, and I talked with his wife a couple of times also, and his daughter. No it was him, but not the right email address, he was using someone elses, email, that guy that's email it was emailed me today,with a different email address and we talked about this whole thing over the phone this morning!

It is common practice to post factual information in this section. That would include ANY email correspondence you have had with the person in question. You can't just come on here and post accusations willy-nilly without having PROOF to back it up.
Reputations are made and broken on this forum. Hearsay or "he said/she said" comments is NOT the way to go.
Please post your emails/pm's as proof of your accusations.
