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.

Ya same number here. How bout we all pester them (812) 465-2363
Area codes 812 and 930 serve the southern third of the state of Indiana. The area codes cover Evansville and most of its suburbs, the northern suburbs of Louisville and the northwestern suburbs of Cincinnati.
Sure in this day and age we could dig deeper and track them down don't like people who mess with our hobby and my business.

I originally posted this thread, the creep did not give me any info of his, as far as the numbers, or addresses that you guys got, he just gave me the scam email, and I told him I knew he was a scammer and to not bother me again. Never heard back.
I hate these guys too, try and have a nice site where we can come to enjoy our hobby, honest people, healthy reptiles to view, purchase, and sell, and then you have to deal with dishonest A$$Holes .

Well i did a little research. They appear to be VoIP numbers. So I'm sure they will change them again soon enough. They're sending checks from UMB bank that look pretty real.

The way the scam works is the checks look real....say you take it to your bank and don't ask them to check funds or the check itself. You have the money deposited in your account and send them back the "extra" money they sent. When your bank does check the check they find out its a fraud so you lose the money you sent the scammers plus you owe the bank back all the money you deposited into your account from the fraudulent check. Kind of a double whammy.....if anyone gets one of these checks contact your closest Office of Postal Inspectors...they will begin an investigation into these AH's and hopefully get this stopped.

A friend said they might not even be in the states, maybe India or something and they are buying these "disposable" numbers.

Fraud Check
I received a check for $2,750.00 from The Law Offices of Rod Schioth P.A.,
2187 S. 3rd St., Jacksonville, FL 32250 (904) 372-9351...written on a BBVA Compass bank check. I'm going to take it by my bank today...I have tried calling the number dozens of times but only get a voice mail. Once I find out this is a fraudulent check from my bank I will turn it over to the postal inspectors so they can start an investigation.
Mike
