    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....

the part where Caudill explained this, or did it conveniently get passed over?

Two scammers.
Both named Caudill.
Similiar MO ( send money = no animal).
Both live within an hour or each other.
Neither appears smarter than redskin potato.

coincidence?
 
Not taking any sides here but there are about 518 Caudill's listed in the state of in Michigan.
Now given that the state of Michigan is only about 98,000 square miles and about 42% of that is water that leaves 56,840 square miles of dry land if you forget about the swampland.
Now if you calculate the population density of Caudill listings I believe it leaves one listing per 110 square miles. Given that fact, it is not unconcevable that there are two families with the same name within 50 miles of each other.
Lucky he is not from Kentucky, there are thousands of Cauldills there.
 
So how old is this guy now? The last two threads from 2003 seemd to think he was 17 ...that would make him 22?...23?...he may even be older...much older. He killed two snakes he misrepresented then and shipped them poorly. Back then he promised he would never do anything like that again and yet here he is ...... again ......

I'm glad you got your money back (or it seems so far) but.................
 
What I asked was "Did I miss...

...the part where Caudill explained this, or did it conveniently get passed over?

Sorry, Sofaking (that makes me laugh everytime I see it), apparently I DID miss it in post #125. But you said they had they had the same addy. I also thought I had seen in one of the numerous threads regarding him & Amy/Amie that they had the same addy. My bad; carry on gentlemen!
 
I'm sorry, I think I got confused by your confusion on the confusing post.


Casey says he does have a sister named Amy, but this Amy is no relation. I think it's BS, but who knows...
 
I have to agree with you on that one. But his 'sister' probably doesn't really spell her name Amie and then spells it 'Amy for short.' Personally, I think the kid's got a "Cybill" thing going on here & maybe he's been off his meds?
I don't watch the soap operas anymore...I come here for my Peyton Place drama!
 
Paypal contacted me today to say that they received notice that my dispute had been resolved.

I replied back to say that I had received the money that was owed to me and that there seemed to be several names associated with the one account. I doubt they will look into it.

Nonetheless--Casey sent me one last email--

Sorry again for everything. I sent paypal information of the refund. By the way, Charles Green is my cousin, I never made anyone up, I just didn't want to be me. Sorry again, this will be the last time we talk. I came clean to my mom about everything, and just told my family what I did, obviously they are very unhappy with me, but its what had to be done. Sorry again

I just wanted to let Caseey know that I did confirm with Paypal that he returned the money that he accidentally stole from me. I'd rather post here than start up an email dialogue again.
 
The only thing he is sorry for is that he got caught, over, and over again. Another guy the reptile community could do without.

The economy kind of caught up with me, and I got into a bad situation, I never had any intention of ripping you off, If I did, I wouldn't have contacted you. I apologize again and call me if you need me Mark. I am not a big jerk, I just fell on hard times. My apologies again.

This is another example of the "I promise, except if... logic" Integrity is the name of the game. You want to sell something, you do what you say you are going to do, then no one gets upset. It's that simple. You don't make a deal you can't close. Period. :angry:
 
Don't worry, I will never be involved in the herp community ever again, I will never be back here. I hope you all forgive me for what I did, I will not be back here, as I know I am not wanted here. Goodbye

what I want to know is what is stopping people like this from just signing on under new accounts?

Very prophetic, as it turns out....

Hi my name is Casey Caudill. I have contacted you before. There is a bad guy thread on me from years ago when I was going thru a bad time in life, and was low on money, and had a bad drug addiction. I decieved somebody and I made a mistake. If you look in the Casey Caudill bad guy thread, I admitted my wrong then and paid back the money. This is now a few years later, I own no reptiles or amphibians and have been clean off drugs for over 2 years. I am working so hard to turn my life around, yet everything a backround check is ran on me, this boi bad guy thread comes up. It is ruining my life. I beg of you to please take it down. I will never own a reptile or amphibian again, I just beg you to please take this down so I can support my family. I beg you please

I am sorry that mistakes from your past life may affect your present and future, but regardless it is the long standing policy of this site that all threads remain "as is" on this site, no matter what. I certainly am not willing to jeopardize the reputation and credibility of the BOI by deleting nor editing any information posted by others there. Doing that could certainly jeopardize my own future welfare stemming from this site, and I hope you see my own perspective in this issue.

kcbowzie said:
Ok that was my only attempt at nice.. You understand that a private civil matter that has been solved can not lead to derogatory threads being posted? I suggest you take it down, or this will become a huge legal mess that you do not want.

kcbowzie said:
I am sure you understand how big of an issue this can be. I have waited a while, and saved a lot of money for an attorney for this very moment. You will be contacted very soon, sorry you wouldn't work with me

The above are threatening messages I received from this guy yesterday (09/05/11), under another account he created here, no less.

:rolleyes:
 
Casey just stop.... Go away. What an idiot.
Yes... People have to live with their mistakes.
Yes... You made many of them.
No... This thread will not go anywhere.
And
No... You cannot use a fake lawyer to scare the "BIG MEANIE".

So Casey go live your life. Without this industry.

It never ceases to amaze how these guys that scam and complain about "supporting their family" seem to have a giant war chest just stuffed with money for a lawyer lol.

Your reply was more than reasonable, and would have been self-evident if he had actually read the terms of the BOI... the fact that he reverted to threats immediately after receiving your VERY patient reply reveals to us all that he hasn't changed one bit. I just don't GET people, sometimes...
 
Please watch the name calling, no matter what you may actually think of someone and/or their actions. :NoNo:
 
What kind of background check is displaying a "bad guy" thread? Perhaps your lawyer could give you some info as to how a background check works. Maybe even post this background check so that all will know to avoid any company using these services.
 
Pretty sure "webslave" and/or the boi never signed any "non-disclosure" agreement and he (Casey) actively participated in the thread. Yeah, I'd be worried.

Or employ them? Because this would do a great service.
 
Possibly a Google check turned up this thread and his name?
Glad to see the BOI does what it is intended to do. Hopefully someone who is thinking of pulling a fast one, sees this thread and changes his/her mind and realizes it is just not worth the risk of your future being tarnished.
