• Responding to email notices you receive.
    **************************************************
    In short, DON'T! Email notices are to ONLY alert you of a reply to your private message or your ad on this site. Replying to the email just wastes your time as it goes NOWHERE, and probably pisses off the person you thought you replied to when they think you just ignored them. So instead of complaining to me about your messages not being replied to from this site via email, please READ that email notice that plainly states what you need to do in order to reply to who you are trying to converse with.

    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....

I have 1 form email into this guy and 1 reply to the hotmail address. BUT after seeing the facebook comments I knew i would not get a reply.

Going to see what paypal can do!

It would help if you outlined what your deal was, etc. I assume that you ordered frogs or stuff from him, sent money and he never responded?

If you used paypal, can you reverse the payment with them? If with your credit card, contact the credit card company and tell them he never sent the product and you want your money back.

I hope you can get your money back. Scammers suck.
 
My deal was just for a conversion kit, sent money, I did a BOI on him before I ordered and NOTHING came up, someone did post a questionable thread after I ordered. Its been 10 days and nothing. No contact/No Response.

I field a paypal claim but I figured this was the best way to help others too! I don't wait around while others could get scammed.

Prices are above! I can screen shot everything if it is questionable or if any one has any questions. I just wanted to make sure everyone knows not to buy asap!

My name is Mark Duncan. I placed an order with AAAfrogs on July 27, 2011. Details of the order are below. Copied directly from their website. Though the status is shown as refunded, that is a lie. My funds have not been returned to my Paypal account. I filed a claim on August 11, 2011 with Paypal. Unfortunately, this jerk (Aaron) will not answer any sort of message. I am stuck waiting for Paypal to finish the investigation.

AAAFORGS IS A RIPOFF. DO NOT ORDER FROM THEM. THEIR SITE IS STILL UP AND ACCEPTING ORDERS. IF YOU ORDER FROM AAAFROGS OR ANY OTHER BUSINESS NAME AARON ACKER MAY BE USING, NOW, YOU ARE BEING SCAMMED!!!!!!!!!

Here is my 2 cents on the matter...

I would also warn everyone NOT to buy from AAA frogs, but I do not believe he is "scamming". I believe he is just too overwhelmed with his personal life and incoming emails to fix everyone's problems. I can say this with some confidence since I recently had a transaction with AAA frogs and this is how it went...

6/19/11 I ordered a 10g conversion kit for a total of $32.37 and recieved the confirmation the same day.
6/24/11 I sent an email and told him my kit still hasn't shipped after 4 business days when it was supposed to be shipped next day.
6/24/11 He sent a reply saying sorry for they delay, he had to take his fiance to a specialist for medical problems and that he was out of hinges and ordering them.
7/10/11 I sent an email asking about my order's status.
7/13/11 He replied and said the hinge company was backed up and he went on about his personal life issues.
7/31/11 I sent him an email asking for a refund because I didn't want him to hold my money indefinately until hinges came in.
8/3/11 I recieved an email from AAA frogs stating the status of my order has been refunded. I went to check my paypal account. Nothing. I then filed a paypal claim.
8/5/11 I sent him an email stating the refund never showed up in my paypal account. I didn't recieve a reply.
8/6/11 I sent him a message via paypal dispute that i didn't recieve my refund. no reply.
8/11/11 I sent him an email stating I still haven't recieved a refund and that I would escalate the claim if i didn't recieve a reply. Again, no reply.
8/15 I escalated the claim.
8/18 I recieved the refund that could pend until Aug 23
I plan on closing the dispute when the status on paypal goes to "refunded"

So, I don't think he is scamming I just think he is overwhelmed. That being said, he should close his business if he can't handle it due to whatever reason. I will never do business with him again, and no one else should either, unless he miraculously gets his act together.
 
I dont see the removing post's as being overwhelmed. Showing that you took care of the matter and responded to FB messages will get you a lot more business because you are credible and will fix problems.

Now he is hiding the problems? It also takes under 10 minutes to update a website and say he is not taking orders.
 
WHile my problem got solved (papal pending). This is not a proper business pratice, and there may be some people who are still waiting for refunds.
 
I recieved this email today....

That means Aaron of AAA Frogs spent my money from my order before he shipped my order out.... and now can't afford to pay it back.
DO NOT DO BUSINESS WITH AAA FROGS!
 
I put in an order with him as well, and never even got as much as an email even after I emailed him twice about my order. :(

Now I'm not even hopeful I'll get my money back, even though I've opened a claim through my bank.

Scammer or just to busy with his life, Aaron is a crook, and I will NEVER do buisness with him again.
 
Look like i got fucked:

Just a friendly reminder, curse words are not allowed in the BOI!

The situation really stinks for all of you, and I have to agree with all of you that are calling this man a scammer.
 
oops I just copied my own post from another place. I cant edit my post in BOI.

I dont think there is going to be anything else I can do. He wont pick up the phonenumber. And i am blocked from posting on the FB wall.
