    Yeah, I know. They are a pain in the butt. But they pay the bills to keep my server running. Just a fact of life, I am afraid.

    Want to get rid of them? Simple. Just become a Contributor level member or above and they will be gone. -> Please click HERE."

    Is that too much for me to ask of you to keep this site running? Well, sorry about that. I too wish I could get everything for free. But alas.....

    =====================


    Google Adsense ad revenue for December, 2025 was just $30 over the cost of the lease for the server running this site. So, in effect, the money providing the incentive for me to continue running this site is coming SOLELY from the paid memberships and sponsorships here. Which honestly ain't much....

Just wanted to give everyone a heads up of the user EdHardy.
I just recently posted a WANTED ad for a 100% Het Female Albino and within minutes I got a PM from a person by the name of Ed Hardy with only 1 post. In the first PM he told me he had a Female Het and asked if I use Western Union. He then sent a PM with a picture of a Albino (not het), stating this is a picture just taken of her and she is 287 grams and 8 months. Then got a price of $200 shipped.
I then asked if he could send me a picture with the Albino on a peice of paper with todays date written on it. I have yet to hear back from him. If you would like to see the PM's I would be happy to send them to you.

I know most of the buyers on here are smart and would not fall into this kind of seller but for those who are more vulnerable, this is just a friendly heads up.
Thank you,
Dane Martinez
 
I think its about time they ban this guys account he already scammed one person we know of out of $500 how many more people have to get scammed before it does ?
 
I don't think people get banned for being scammers. I'd imagine there are legal issues that prohibit Rich/Fauna from showing any bias directly for or against such people. Banning his account would end up being an empty gesture anyway since he's obviously figured out how to create new ones. His IP could be banned but that would effectively cut off anyone else using his internet provider. When you're relying on page hits to help pay the bills it just wouldn't make sense to lock so many people out of the site. The only real option is for all of us to keep an eye on this jackass and update these threads every time he surfaces with a new name.

I don't know about that. It's his site and he can ban who he wants.

He scammed another member out of $250.00 the police got him to send it back, he tried me with alot of stolen pics....I knew some of the pics as other peoples pics so he got no where with me.

Daniel Costello is a low life/no life scum sucking scamming fool.

What do you have to say Daniel?
 
I wondered about him. I posted a want ad for Dwarf Blue geckos. He didn't wit very long and PM'd me with a too nice of a photo(looked like it was cpoied from somewhere online.) Now I know that there are way better photographers out there me, I not all that great at taking photos. But that's all he sent and at the bottom said "interested?" That's it no info, nothing. So replied back even with all the red flags going off just to see what he says

IMO I guess if I was trying to make a sale I would try to be a llittle more convincing than this.

Thanks,

Has anyone talked to him on Yahoo at all? If so do you have a user name for him? I was contacted by someone that wanted to do transactions via Western Union.

Thanks

I too was contacted by Ed Hardy. But is was not for a Het, it was for a pure hogg island boa that he claimed to have. I also got a reply on the ad within about an hour of posting, claiming he had a pure hogg island boa. I was warned to not deal with him, but i had already found a hogg island from a known breeder. I wish there was some way so that these kinds of scammers can be banned.
 
This is the phone number he gave me 267-467-1358. Freakin jerk. I wonder if I called the police if they would do anything?
