• In the past two days I have gotten emails asking about being requested to provide credit card info in order to register and also to make a post in the classifieds forums. PLEASE NOTE: In no instance will this site ask you for this sort of information. The only time any request for payment is made is if you choose to opt-in for a higher membership level, and that is done SOLELY through PayPal. Anything else is coming from a source other than this site. My guess is that this is coming through Google Adsense, but when I can get someone to send me a screen shot of this sort of request, I will know more.

    **************************************************
    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.

VERY UNLIKELY you'll be reading from anyone here on Fauna...

Did you really think you'd scam someone here with the same BS all scammers use??

It's just a moment or 2 away, before you're banned...

Hang around here for a while before you get your credit card out. Read all the ads. Read what the old-timers say in response to them. Learn how scammers work, and how to spot them. Always only send secured funds.

People who sign up today and buy a reptile tomorrow are easy prey for scammers. Don't be easy prey.
 
If you do a reverse image search on the photo, it is from a FB page from a pet store in Australia.

No one bought it. Well, no one in the US, and not from Iowa.

What, in Nigeria? Pakistan? Russia? Good luck with all that. Call Interpol -- maybe they're not busy next week and can look into this.

There isn't enough time left before the heat death of the universe to track down all these scammers, let alone the funds. They're innumerable, and scattered all over the world.
 
I realize that quite a few of them are in other countries, but a bunch are right here. I also realize most law enforcement agencies don't have the time or resources, I just wish they did. People like these go unpunished, and that sucks.

Agreed.

If everyone gets smarter (much smarter; collectively, and since time began, humans are as sharp as a bag of wet hair on these things) about scammers -- not just fake herp sellers, but phone scammers, Russian email spoofers, comment bots on YouTube, statistical data illusionists, advertising gimmicks, personality cults, misleading warranty terms on household appliances, Instagram photo editing, and all the rest -- they will go away. The only thing that can stop a bad guy with a brain is a good guy with a brain.

The list of human misbehaviors that have been successfully addressed by the "cuff-em-and-stuff-em" method is vanishingly small, unfortunately.
