    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....

anyone know Kevin Peters of Danville California

I belive I have been robbed.
Click to expand...
I'll bet you any amount of money that you have been. Kevin Peters is a known criminal. He's conned several people out of money/animals, and is constantly attempting to illegally obtain animals.
 
well I guess that answers my question

All of the stories on the links sounds exactically like what that f@#*k did to me. I guess that is a lesson to be learned. My dumb a$$ didnt do any research on him before I sent him my money. Hell get whats coming to him.
 
It absolutely amazes me that as many times as this dirtbag's been caught he still continues to be a burden to the reptile community. I can see no correlation between the scientific mind needed to properly maintain herps and the actions of a sorry assed thieving ghetto punk. It definately supports my thought of legalizing the abortion of anyone regardless of age..........I honestly believe had his mother been a wolf, she'd have ate him at birth. This guy's a turd that wont flush.
 
PLease give us any info you have of his that may be new... Ie adress Phone # email adress

Not everyone was ripped off...

Luckily enough, I wasn't ripped off by Kevin. That's probably because I wasn't actually buying anything from him, but rather, he contacted me wanting to buy some of my stuff. Right off the bat the guy sounded very suspicious with some rather outlandish stories, however I played along with it just to see how it would go. He was wanting to buy my West African green mamba, and there is no way on Earth I'd sell a snake of that caliber to a person like him, so I was just curious what all he'd end up saying. Well, the manure just kept getting deeper and deeper and finally I had enough of it, especially after he sent people a picture of someone else's mainland coastal taipan claiming he had these. My take on him is that he's just some guy, probably early 20s, that doesn't have a life and for some reason keeps being able to rip people off. That would stop in a big hurry though if everyone would just check the BOI on him before dealing at all.
 
His last address was 7100 San Ramon Rd. Dublin, CA which is actually an apartment complex called the Springs Apt., which means he's got an apt #, if he is still there that is.

The reason I remember is because I used to live in these same apartments about 7 years ago, I know exactly where they are. I saw the title of the thread said he was in Danville, so I don't know if he moved, but Danville is only about 5 minutes from Dublin.
 
i had the same problem

hi my name is steve burke
i had almost the same problem with him he wanted my banded egyptian cobra and i asked him insted of money doy uo have any adult albino monacle cobras and he did. so he said for me to ship first and i nevr ship first in trades so i sayed no.then since i would not ship first he then asked me to make sure i had apermit for the state of ny to have venomous snakes and i told him yes. after i sent him a copy he told me it was fake and he was calling the cops on me. not 10 min after i got off the phone with him i call the nydec and they sayed that this guy is pulling my leg and just stop with him because they have me on file.after this he stoped emailing me and calling me.1 month later i get in email from him that says he is in fl trading snakes with exotic gems.so then i call them and they are haveing the same problem and the night kevin was going to them he never did. so the next day he says oh yea i am going to the hamburg show i said i have a table there if you want the banded i still have him so i am there all day and he never shows. also i forgot to say when he did tell me he said he lives in cal and he should not be telling me this but he has over 30 cobras in his house and no permits and the reason he does not get into truble is because he is a cop in cal. i do not have his phone number any more becase i just stoped talking to him but if there is anymore info you might need just ask me i will try to help you in anyway.

Anyone with info on this piece of work called "Kevin Allen/Alan Peters" should call Det. Alex Niecu of the Tracy, Ca police Dept. 209.831.4550. He is the one working this case for me.

If you lost money to Kevin peters, you can sue him. Call 209.831.5902 or 209.473.6463

If you want to talk to the DA's office and file criminal charges, call Angela Hayes at 905.671.0583 or 209.831.5912

If you written proof of him admitting to possessing illegal animals, call Cal. Dept of Fish and Game at 1.888.334.2258 or 1.888.358.2900.

To check if he has a license for the animals, call 1.916.227.2245

The above numbers are correct to the best of my knowledge.

I tried to but could not edit my previous post. The first number given for Angela Hayes was incorrect. The " 905.671.0583" number is a phone number for a book store in Canada, not the DA's office in Tracy, CA. Sorry for the confusion -- and any Canadian calls you may have incurred.

But, it was a good place to buy books. They are closed now, though..... Again, I apologize.
No, they did not carry any snake books.

The other numbers are correct. I double checked them.


The above information is true and correct-- moreso than my previous post-- to the best of my knowlege. { Or lack thereof}:confused:
 
Rip off artists

A few weeks ago, this individual tried to scam me out of a group of Texas Alligator Lizards-----he wanted them, didn't have the money but would send it as soon as he sold some of the lizards----well, I am a cranky old fart who has been around the block too many times--told him to get the money--send it to me-and he would receive the lizards....Over a month has passed---guess what--nada----nothing....also, isn't he associated with some other person named Vincent something or other....they both contacted me wishing to sell a Shingleback ???? I am sorry for your loss of money and/or specimens. I wish TRUST and ETHICS could be re-established in Herpetoculture--at one time these qualities were evident....Sincerely, Earl H. Turner:(
 
Kevin Peters going down

Hello - yes we know this poor boy..lol,
We currently have 2 police stations questioning Kevin Peters.
Last night he received phone calls and spoke with 2 officers, myself and my business partner - we tightened the noose hard on this guy. The police are aware of who he is and this is a very bad day for him. He made the mistake of messing with someone that is conected to law inforcement in the Bay Area...whoops..LOL We would like to possibly start a civil action suite - if at all possible.
But we need your help. Please email any information you want to give on this person to [email protected]
His address is actually:
Kevin Peters
1700 San Ramon Valley Blvrd
Danville CA. 94526
Here is his new cell number: 925-719-1830
today be a good day to vent your frustration on his voice mail as he is aleady squirming in a big way.
He faxed us a copy of his license and the address above checks out with police and is slightly different than the one mentioned in the prior post. According to police he has no criminal record - but with your help he will in a big way. Please email us and let us know what your experience was.
Thanks Steve
 
Kevin Allan Peters updated address, location, and is byb belgian malinois in Fernley

So, gotta say, this asshole is a piece of work. If any of you are looking for him I found him. 1725 AUTUMN GLEN ST, Fernley, Nevada. His new antics: selling belgian malinois puppies for 800-2500 each. No pedigree, no reg, no OFA on sire or dam. Bred dam every heat and she's not three. There are 26 puppies in circulation (two litters) and is pregnant with a third litter right now. Puppies from the first litter were diagnosed with giardia, parvo, two forms of cancer, and hip dysplasia. He lied to everyone, showed a fake pedigree and fake ofa certification. Also told each owner a different story. There is an open and active investigation going that I was able to start, thank god, against this asshat. Well, let me know of you guys want any other info
