Debbie Mawson - VERY, VERY BAD - Using my UPS Account!

Alright all... I know that there are threads on Debbie Mawson, but I didn't know that at the time. I had my female iguana for adoption, and I had some 10 calls, but debbie was the only one that could take her right away, so I went ahead with the deal. I used my business UPS Account to ship her next day air.

Now... I've recieved two UPS bills with two seperate shipments to Debbie Mawson of Sutherland, IA. It looks like she's hading out my UPS account number to have people send her animals. Both of these shipments were sent UPS Next Day Air using my shipping number (and therefore my billing number). I'm also still waiting for the $40 she said she would compensate me for shipping, but at this point I'm not holding my breath.

I've talked to UPS and they are reversing all the charges, as well as getting police involved. I've also contacted police and they said it might be considered a 'identity theft' type issue (like using someone else's credit card number). I just wanted to warn everyone from sending her ANYTHING. The worst part is that when agreeing to the deal, she told me she had a FedEx Account number and she'd schedule a pickup... I thought it would be easier to just use my account. Makes me wonder who's account she was going to give me.

Sad part for me is that I really cared about that iguana, and who knows where she is now. Debbie sounded like she was alright when i talked to her on the phone, but I guess with some people you never can tell. She gave me no reason to be suspicious, so I didn't even think about looking here for or anything. I've also found out that uses about 3 different address and 2 different phone numbers, all in IA.

I can provide e-mails and scans of my bills should anyone really feel like disputing my evidence.

She contacted me about two iguanas I had. I almost fell for her scam "I have an account you can ship them through" yeah, Brians!

Sorry you have to go through this, hopefully she will finally be stopped. She really is not one to trust, she really pushes to get iguanas from people.

Yeah I found out (after the fact) that she attempts to resell the iguanas she gets for free... just generally not a good person. I also found out from UPS that they will be sending her a bill for the charges she made, and if she doesn't pay then they get a collection agency and the police involved, and in some cases can even contact banks to get assets repossessed if the amounts start adding up. I'd love to see her face when she gets a $200 bill from UPS (the boxes she was using were HUGE! must have been full size iguanas... I'm sure it went something like "don't worry about the size, i'll pay for it...")... lol

Anyone who thinks they can use my account at my expense is sadly very mistaken.

On a positive note, UPS has been extremely helpful! They explained the whole process, and basically said I should ignore the charge, internal billing will switch it over. Less than 5 minutes on the phone each time. Kudos to UPS customer service! (well, the business billing department anyway)

She gets a free iguana, doesn't plan on paying the shipping charge to get it to her.....and still feels the need to rip you off using your UPS account!!!

How scandalous can a person get? People like that should just be taken out and shot, literally.

tell ups about it.

If the police end up pursuing a case, I'll be happy to add some additional charges. I have never received a dime against the check she wrote me on a closed account.

What a lovely lady.

Some jail time would be very appropriate for Miss Mawson.

Debbie Mawson...here's your sign

You've earned it. Wear it with pride.

I feel bad for you;not only for your sake but for all of the reptile community. How could someone not think they would not get caught?

It's not like I won't find out about it....
