• 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.....

    Addendum: 01/10/2026
    =====================


    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....

arrangement for pick-up which will be after you must have received and
cashed the check.Awaiting your info.
Thanks


Got the above today, same old tune different email. Beware of these the scams.
 
I received exact email today as well. Such an obvious bs scam. I replied back I need name, number, location and it’s crickets. From a ‘g e’ and a super silly long random email addy.
 
He Is Still At It

Just got this regarding a still active but older posting of mine on my Chinese Box Turtles for Sale. Same guy now using a "GE" named handle with the email address of: [email protected]

Earlier, over the summer was using other ID's and email addresses. Saw this newer thread on this guy and wanted to add my info to it.

Only change is he is now offering only $30 to keep it in his favor not the $50 as before.

Still asking if "Still available?" When responds states the same old same old,
"I need your full name and address.Am paying by Money Order /personal check or cashier check.I'll add $30 for keeping it in my favor."

Was glad to see this new thread posted. As I haven't been very active on here recently. Pondering whether or not if I should take this any further with him. Thought I might say sure but send the funds overnight only for fastest transaction. But then what does one do with a bad check, money order or cashier's check? Will the police or other authorities really do anything about it or even can they? Seems if they could they haven't or isn't a priority. Any ideas or input would be appreciated. Thanks.

If nothing else having the scammer ship you the cashier's check costs him time and money to send it.
 
Thanks for all the heads up info and detection guys and gals. Thank goodness I haven't had the displeasure of dealing with this particular scammer recently.

I received my check.:rofl:and it only took 4 emails back and forth to get them to send the money, and they sent $1250.00 more than I was asking for my lizard.


The check is drawn on BMI in N.Y. sent from FL., from a bogus person in MI.

It's a tangled web they think weave.

I figure if I continue to scam the scammer, it might slow em down a little, to date in 18 months of fooling the different scammers I've received 18 checks totaling $46,800.:D


I'm having a BLAST!
