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.

Has any one ever been scamed by a FREE Corn snake E-mail?
This girl/lady wants me to send her $50.00 to ship me her Corn snake because she is joining the military. She said she found my post on the Corn Snake forum and blah,blah,blah
Her name is danielle
Her E-mail is lyciana@hotmail.com
My E-mail pulls Lyciana Cusack from the server
Does this sound fishy?
Any one have protection ideas?
Depending on how she is shipping, $50 sounds pretty expensive to me for shipping a corn snake(and for the corn snake).
I would pass if I were you.
I definately wouldn't send her $50.
But you could have it sent frieght collect. I'm not sure if all carriers have this option, but with some such as Airborne, you can elect to bill the receiver. In that case you will pay Airborne the shipping charges when they send you a bill a month or so later.
HI
I WOULD TELL HER TO GO AHEAD AND SHIP AND MARK ON THE SHIPPER SLIP TO BILL TO THE RECIEVER. THAT WAY SHES OUT NO CASH AND YOU'LL GET A INVOICE IN THE MAIL
IN A COUPLE OF WEEKS WITH THE ACTUAL SHIPPING COST,
WHICH SHOULDNT BE 50$. IF SHE WONT DO THIS, WHICH ANYONE CAN, THEN SHES DEFINETLY SCAMMING!
HOPE THIS HELPS!
GOD BLESS

This person should not have any problems shipping the snake collect.
I just adopted a nice boa from a pretty reputable and nice guy.....he was not at all offended....and he did not mind at all when I said can you send it collect.... I just got the boa yesterday...
Shipping collect saved both parties headaches in my opinion....
Thanks for the ideas, I knew there had to be a safe way to do this! <img src="http://www.faunaclassifieds.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/wink.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=''>
