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.

Didn't someone who was doing some digging, come up with the name of Zimmerman, as a husband or boyfriend/ex-boyfriend? That would fit with the "aezim" Yahoo email.

The aezim4163 is likely Amy. "E" is her middle initial and yes, Zimmerman is the last name of the guy was involved with.

Robert, thanks for that link to the ad. She took it down so quickly, I didn't get a chance to download the photos.
Interestingly, another member here contacted me privately today, and said she tried to sell him a large male purple retic last week. Don't know if it's the one I already bought, or a different one. Obviously, if it was another animal, fine, but if it was the one I already paid for, then it's not fine.
I know that I should prove that, but don't want to post a PM here. I can forward it to a moderator, if that's acceptable proof.
Laura, thanks for the info on that email; I appreciate it!

You don't need to actually post the PM here if it contains other info you don't want to share, but I have a feeling that the Mods will require that you publicly name your source.

I hope that taking about animal purchases in your dispute doesn't hurt your chances. Paypal has been known to violate their own policies regarding live animal purchases. If they do at least you can fall back on your CC. They tend to ask a lot less questions as they always try to work for whats in your best interest since you are their customer and not the seller. I hope you get your money back.

I hope not either, but I didn't see any way around it.
She has informed me that she's shipping on Tuesday, May 2nd, even though I asked her today not to. Our night temps are going to be in the 30s that night, but apparently she doesn't care if it's too cold.

Kathy - did she ever force a shipment on you yesterday? Curious if anything arrived, snake or otherwise?

Robert, no, not a word since I sent her an email last week, with a screenshot of our weather forecast (it was in the 30s here last night).
Still awaiting PayPal's decision regarding my dispute. Kinda frustrating that $850 of my funds is unavailable pending resolution.
Thanks for the follow up! I'll post the outcome when I'm notified.

Kathy, I kinda figured you weren't gonna receive anything from this person. It's been BS from the start. I was lucky enough to catch on pretty quick to their scam solely based on answers he/she was giving me to my questions through text messages and also just by how pushy she was acting yo try to get a deal done ASAP. Raised all the red flags for me which led me to open up this inquiry on her. I really hope things work out for you and that you get your money back. Two things in life that I truely hate the most liars and thieves!!

Milo, thanks for the additional info. I did include a link to this thread when I filed the PayPal dispute.
As far as I know, she did not ship the animal out on Tuesday, as I had asked her not to do. The ladies at the FedEx office know me well, and I'm certain I would have gotten a call if something showed up.
