    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.....

    =====================


    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....

Hello Seller
I saw your listing and i am interested in the purchasing of your animal for my Farm village,I need some informations concerning the animal..

1,Is it still for sale
2,The final asking Price
3,My mode of payment is via check which will carry excess funds for the shipper..


I was just wondering if anyone had heard of or done business with them.
It just sounded kind of strange. There are more e-mails but they get a little more strange.And before I post them I thought I would just see if anyone here knows anything about them.Thanks

I have been contacted by several of the scammers, and that phrase "final asking price" had been used by more than half of them. The next email usually asks for your address, and that they will send their carrier over for the pick up.
 
Well this has been a long week I have tried everything I could to deter this guy and nothing seemed to work today I just received a cashiers check via UPS and there was a check from Wachovia inside.I am on my way there now to check with the branch manager to figure out weather or not this is a real check or not.

I hope this is the real thing but I am not getting all excited just yet.

I will let you all know by the end of the day if it truly was a scam or not. :thumbsup:
 
OK it is a scam and here are all the names involved
Walter Aig was the contact name that all the e-mails came from I am sure that one will change.
Freddy Mendoza
UPS account number 7326576271
967 Toms River Road
Jackson NJ. 08527
is the name and address that sent the UPS letter.The Wachovia rep recognized the name so I guess this one has been around.

The name on the check was
eStara Inc.
1821 Michael Faraday Drive Ste 100
Reston Va. 20190

And this is the shipper I was supposed to contact's information.
Erynn Sellers
22 A Solera Dr.
Columbus,Ohio 43229

I am a little smarter than this tool gave me credit for and would never send someone my hard earned money for a check I just deposited before it clears.This guy tried all the way to the end.

Hope this keeps anyone from even wasting their time.
 
Thanks for the update. Let us know the results, I guess it could be real. I have never had one follow through, so who knows? Good luck with it.
 
This is a Federal Crime...I would contact the FBI in Newark immediately. Forward them all e-mails and make this guy pay so that he can't rip off anyone else. This is about 40 minutes from me and hits a little too close to home.
 
we have already turned everything over to the internet Fraud division so it is all in their hands I am gonna scan the check and UPS label later and post it I hate the fact that these people still do abuse unknowing people and get away with it so I figure the more I can show the better.

I just can't believe even after I called this guy out on it he kept on trying and all the way till this morning he kept saying it was legit.

Is there away for you to find out if this address even exists or if even that is fake.

From what I know (from past BOI investigations) you can look up the "company" to see if it's registered.

As for the guy...I'd wait until Ritchie Luna picks this up. He has great investigation skills.
 
these were addressed to my wife because she handles the phone calls and e-mails normally but as soon as I heard about htis one I took over but they still made the check out to her.

Give us the email headers (with IP addresses) so we can trace the address to the computer's location in the country. And you can check the physical addresses on whitepages.com or maps.google.com.
 
the number I thought was an account number I have since found out is a phone number I have tried calling it but no answer or machine.I will keep trying.Here is the number (732) 657-6271
 
Well I got a hold of mom and she sounded pissed and then put a young Freddy Mendoza on the phone and he sounded quite scared or nervous.I have turned the phone number and address which I confirmed with mom to the proper authorities.I hope this will help catch these scam artists.
