    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....

Jeff Bell and or Janiece McMurray placed an order for $538 off our website on March 13 2018. We told them the lows were to cold for home delivery and sent the address to her closest local hub and said we could ship there safely. She responded back she did not have a car and it would have to be home delivery and we responded we would gladly wait and check the weather next week in hopes of temps warm enough to ship safely to her residence. It happens a lot that suddenly once they realize the safety of the animal is our #1 concern and the convenience of the customer is a close 2nd to that her excuse for not being able to do hub pickup was no longer valid and she agreed to pick up the next day at the hub. Things went normal and she picked up the snake at the hub the next day as planned.

fast forward to March 28th 2018 we get a notification from square that the payment was disputed due to no knowledge of the transaction. Janiece had posted pictures of her new snake on facebook the day she received him and the patterns can be matched to be the snake we shipped. The billing address on the invoice matched the shipping address she requested us ship to. We emailed the customer in hopes it was an honest mistake but if it was an honest mistake it would have been a simple fix by calling her bank and reporting to them that the charge was in fact valid. Instead she insisted on not canceling the dispute but making payments via paypal or with money order. To me this screams something is fishy and likely she used a stolen credit card and is only making offers of payments to avoid us or the bank filing a police report since she showed her ID at fedex on camera and we have all her personal information (as well does the card holders bank at this point). Honest mistake or not she has not made us whole and likely is just another thief and should be on everyones do not sell to list to avoid giving her free snakes as well.

Well this took an unexpected turn. Upon showing her Roberts detective work that showed she has pulled this exact scam in the past and letting her know one more time I will eat the 538 but I WILL be attempting to prosecute she asked for a paypal invoice (instead of calling the card holder bank and reporting the chargeback as accidental) The paypal invoice was sent to the same email address and that is registered to a totally different name, Chase Grayson (totally not a scammer perfectly normal to have like 4 names you go by)

That did not work so she got another invoice, this time through square, and she paid that immediately. Now waiting game to see if that one is disputed as well. I will update the thread if a charge back is initiated on it as well. Thank you for the help Robert.

No problem.
If she does another charge back, I'll dump her life history here like I was just about to do before your posted the "paid invoice".
Good luck

Thank you Robert. She is a thief. I just think the only reason I got paid with a different card (hopefully her own) is because she knows she got greedy when she turned that government ID over to fedex when she signed for it. Hopefully no chargeback on this one but if so I am more than ready to pursue legal action against her for criminal charges.
 
Since you have the tracking number and paid for the shipping I think one of the services FedEx offers is you can get a picture of the signature left by whoever signed for the package, but it's only available for 3-6 months. So, if you don't have a copy of it yet you may want to grab it now.
 
Sorry to hear this thief and scammer ripped you off. I commend your excellent communication and documentation! Thanks for getting the word out about this one.
 
Janiece - since you are viewing this thread right now, care to explain? (yes, I see you with your fake account)
 
Since she is watching may as well show a little more while I wait to see if the 2nd charge is disputed as well :) This is not her first rodeo as far as scamming people online. Although may have been her first time trying to scam somebody that made her go on camera and show her government ID to get the product :shootfoot
