Mr Simon - you have a PM....depending on how that goes, your thread will either be reopened, or removed.

I contacted "Paul Simon" regarding some issues with his interest in Joe Thomas, aka JT Reptiles. Since he has been here

and chosen not to reply, I'm inclined to just post my thoughts here.


The first post I noted by Mr Simon was a fluff post in one of Joe Thomas' ads (since removed as a bump, but I may undelete since I'm mentioning it here)...and I saw that the IP addresses were quite similar. That led me to check the IP addresses for Paul Simon - there were three:

174.132.254.58 [Find More Users with this IP Address]
67.19.54.106 [Find More Users with this IP Address]
74.55.11.66 [Find More Users with this IP Address]

....and checking other members with those IP addresses revealed this:

JT REPTILES 174.132.254.58
paul simon 174.132.254.58

JT REPTILES 67.19.54.106
paul simon 67.19.54.106

JT REPTILES 74.55.11.66
paul simon 74.55.11.66


There were a few other things that caught my eye; and Nick uncovered that we've had a Joe Thomas here in the past. Following that lead has been a trip down memory lane; but I haven't had a lot of time to devote to it, so I can't comment on whether there is a valid connection.

In the meantime, I'm open to statements/explanations from the parties involved.

A response
This is a second account that was created and really never used. I have had a few emails asking abount animals.I have asked a few customers to give feed back via the boi. I was looking for some responses from past customers. In these trying times it helps to eluviate customers fears about buying from the internet and a few good reports will help ease the fears. I only wanted reports from people that had done business with JT reptiles and gave a honest feed back. I guess in hind sight i was wrong

Asking customers to post is one thing. Using a fake account to fluff and bump your ads, and try to get your name out there is a different matter entirely. Starting out can be tough, but you're usually better off doing it the old fashioned way.
