    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....

Read from the bottom, up

After the last email, I called him, there was a child crying in the background, he said he wants to try some other boas and pythons, he has enough pieds, dropped a couple names and sounded legit. I told him due to the fact he has no rep. that I know of and I can give several references, I would like him to ship first Monday, and I would ship on Tues, after his animals arrived. He said he would do some checking and call me back. Then I saw Sammys post.......


Yes I can ship fed ex. My number is 1-856-262-4463

So Kevin registers on Fauna in July, makes a few posts and checks everything out, then registers a fake name in Oct. and posts a "scam ad" the same day? He must have gotten that "spam" scam from Nigeria and figured he could "spruce it up a little"?
 
Folks, as if you haven't figured it out yet, there was NO WAY Casey was going to get ripped off in this deal!!.... NO WAY!!.... Why, you ask??.... Because Casey clearly stated in his past post that he was going to make the OTHER GUY ship FIRST!!.... Period!!.... That's why I always say that I will trade with ANYONE, as long as THEY ship first, that way, if they don't send the animals, SO WHAT??.... But if they do, and I like them, I KNOW they will get their's (not vice-versa)....
GOOD JOB CASEY....

Thanx Neil.
It is this site that saved the day again.
The fact is I would ship first to a whole bunch of people who are registered on this site, I could name names, but if you think you are one of them, you probably are. This site has saved me $$ more than once, maybe a dozen times over the last 5 yrs and it is because of the people on this site who have integrity, and the wisdom to know how to convey it to others without a bunch of chest thumping and posturing.
Thanx Rich Z. for Fauna!
 
This is the email I received from him about the pics. It came with the same 3 pics attached as posted already in the thread. Juts thought I would post it for future reference.

Thats great Bill!!!

One of the pics were of Jon's Pied that he still owns. This guy is a real piece of... work.
 
I don't know how to look up info on the pics, if anyone knows how I can forward the copies and maybe we could figure out where the third pic came from.

We already know they aren’t his pictures but for fun the EXIF data imbedded on one of the pictures shows the picture was taken 4/30/02.

LOL!

“Kevin,” I just have to say you have to be one of the dumbest scammers to come on here.
To give Casey a phone number to a landline while using the alias Nick Larowe (nicksexoticreptiles) that can be traced back to you while at the same time defending your alias using the same IP address, wasn’t very bright.

Yeah, he signed off 3 minutes after I poted that. Little chicken :censored: .
 
Hey Guys,

Whats even funnier is he used the pic of my piebald that i have posted in the "Hunters Guide to the Morphs" Section... probably the most looked at page on my site... That was seriously stupid :slamit:
 
Like I said.....it amazes me that these people think we're all as dumb as they are, lol.
