• 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....

Bad Guy Derek Beando Dbeando scams

idk, i called PayPal after they dismissed my claim and they weren't caving at all, they just kept on saying most sellers will settle and give your money back, basically said, look, a scam artist doesnt give the money back, no one robs a bank and then brings the money back the next day and says sorry, it doesn't work like that.
 
As I already said, once they dismiss your claim (or rule against you), they aren't likely to reopen it....you have to make it clear BEFORE they make a decision that the basis of your claim is purchased goods were not shipped by the seller. PayPal is a pain to deal with - no doubt about it, many things are best handled by speaking directly to customer service....but that process always leaves me wanting to stab my eyes out with a spork.
 
Has anyone read what he wrote on his website?

"There has been alot of problems going on with buying and shipping out geckos as someone else had accessed my accounts, money has been stolen from me and i have since changed my passwords for protection and cancelled my credit cards. please send me an email at [email protected] regarding which animal was purchased and we can work out some way to ship them or pick them up or to recieve your store credit as stated in my terms and conditions that if for any reason you want a refund it will be given as store credit, if an animal was purchased by mistake or multiple times while this other party had access to my accounts while i was away, we can work something out to get you refunded or get a gecko out to you. i apologize for all the problems and i will do the best i can to make everything work with everyone, i am trying to work with everyone but have been overwhelmed with problems with family. Sorry for all the inconvieniances and i will be awaiting all the emails from buyers to work something out. Paypal does not cover live animal purchases so we need to work this out amungst ourselves via email, I have these terms and conditions in place to protect myself incase of events such as these, and i will not respond to threatening emails either as there is no need for that as i will be doing everything i can to work this out. i am willing to work out refunds for certain people under certain curcumstances, otherwise it will be given as store credit to be used towards babies offered later this year."

He claims that he will give store credit for another animal later this year. Kind of funny because in the classifides post he was selling all of his collection because he was not allowed to keep animals where he is moving.
 
Yeahhh I don't buy it. How does one gecko get purchased that many times? There must have been some sort of correspondence between seller and buyer. And if that was the issue that someone hacked his account, why not let people know before.. why now? He obviously is trying to save his butt!
 
I have these terms and conditions in place to protect myself incase of events such as these,

RIIIGHT, because it's so common for someone to hack into not just your paypal account, but also your pangea and fauna account in order to post geckos, get money from multiple sellers, AND steal the all of the money.

Did we confirm that the recent pictures of vegan cupcake were sent from the same cell number as the texts with me? I doubt his cell phone and Vegan Cupcake were ALSO stolen.
 
Just snagging 2 screenshots of that. One is highlighted because it might only be my eyeballs but brilliant red on that color green gives me eye strain.

Corporal Ury can't use the screenshots, though. Is there a way to download webpages?
 
If you download a webpage and save it as an html file, it's just as much proof as a screenshot - both can be edited by the party who saves it. Corporal Ury will have to save the website himself if he needs 100% verified unedited proof.
 
You have to be kidding me!!! How many times have the people on the BOI heard this?
Scammers 101 and possibly 102! Incredible! Guess he thinks he is covering his butt by writing this stuff and then re-stating his "company" terms??

Oh Puh-leeeease!ROFL
Straight out of the scammer's handbook.:rolleyes:
This guy is out of his mind. There is far too much working against him for him to be able to pull off this claim of hacked accounts, stolen money, etc., etc.

BTW Should anybody wish to have it, here is the link, to Derek's cached website, before the change he made to it:

I would subpoena some IP addresses if anyone received any emails. Paypal would have all the login IP addresses also and where the money went. In my experience there is no cost for a criminal/grand jury subpoena or search warrant served on Paypal. They have always been cooperative. BTW I may still have a phone number contact for a Paypal fraud investigator if Cpl. Ury is interested.

I got shot down......Let me clarify.

The investigating authority would be the requesting agency for any type of subpoena and/or search warrant. I think I made it sound that anyone would be able to do this and this is not true. Sorry for the mix up.

Also..... I believe his cell carrier is Verizon (according to fonefinder.net). Unless it has changed in the last few years, Verizon stores text messages in a 7 day queue. First in first out method over a 7 day period. So make sure you photograph any text messaging.
 
I know nobody is buying what he stated on his website but I will mention this anyway.

While he has used several IP addresses on this site, every single time this year he has only used 1. Every AD so far this year has come from the same place.

:iagree:

His excuses are LAME!

Someone hacked his email, fauna, pangea & paypal? Not bloody likely, unless of course he is an idiot & used the same user name and password for all. :ack2:
 
This guy got over bad on A LOT of people. He worked the small community for all he could squeeze and is taking off - site down & he's read much of this (missin our Officer's input heheh). I think with the amount of money he's scammed the charges are getting SERIOUS for him. I hope with all my heart the Corperal pays him a personal visit. Kudos to you Sir for taking the extra steps to help with this bad guy. Your efforts are appriciated so much.
If this guy gets away with this he is SURE to repeat the hidious acts on new victims- er hobbyiests maybe somewhere "accross country". Him gettin nailed and making the info public will help deter this behavior a lil more I think. Part of the problem is the consequences are minimal for scammers online, identities are avail and disposable so when caught in their lie web and tangled they start fresh knowing very well most people do not take the steps to get them busted/sued. BOI helps others so much but someones gotta be a victim before others can be warned and that sucks. Every person involved needs to file a complaint with IC3, don't assume someone did- the more red flags the higher the priority for them.
I would also recommend writing up a scammer alert paragraph. Include his personal details-name-numbers-addresses- email addresses, a current picture (facebook or whatever) and a short! Explanation of how he's scamming thousands of dollars - THEN forward it to every News station website in Mass you can find. They are usually very HAPPY to run news clips of bad guys scamming so much money that live locally and sometimes they go and bother the bad guys for video statements on the "alligations" heh...let him answer to his home state too.
 
I hope he wasn't using his dads info to be a nurse in Mass. He may have been an intern/candy striper claiming to be a nurse but No board in Mass/Ct or New Hampshire has him on record that I could find either. Talking crap about what you're NOT is one thing. Posing as someone your not to gain access without education could be deadly...
 
If someone is a CNA is that listed like a registered nurse? I know you get a certificate, but not sure how much info is available to the public on the CNA thing.

Christina that is a good idea to have all that info in one paragraph and just with the lovely Un-Wise family it can be posted in other locations. I will gladly post on my site, FB ect....
