Watch out for this guy. He sent me a pm and said to text his friend Daniel Martin at 717-572-9394 for a trade deal. (I think its the same person now)
We had decided to ship the same day after sending photos of both animals and agreeing on the trade.
As soon as I shipped he stopped replying and never send the animals.
This is all I have on him but watch out

I first noticed the "ganggreenonmybumbum" screen name a few months ago when he'd posted an ad. Got a bad feeling about him, considering the very high likelihood that he was using a fake name. "Ezekiel Stoltzfus" is a fairly common Amish name. Almost getting a slight Dan Costello vibe from this situation. Let's hope "Ed Hardy" isn't making a comeback.
 
According to Lancaster County PA records, 302 New Holland Ave is owned by Heim Handyman Services, Inc., located at 1419 Lampeter Rd., Lancaster, PA 17602. (First link below)

And according to CorporationWiki/Dun & Bradstreet Heim Handyman Services, Inc. is owned by Michael Heim. (Second link below)

Confirmed by Bizapedia as Michael C. Heim. (Third link below)

With a phone number of (717) 209-7001. (Last link below)

If it isn't Michael, perhaps it's someone that works for him? Either way, he may be able to help you out considering his building's address was used for mail fraud.

I was almost scammed on a swap. Guess what I did to finally guilt them into sending? I sent one postcard each day with something like "How dare you steal from me? I can't believe you would do such a thing!" written on the postcard in sharpie. Everyone who touched the cards could clearly see what I wrote. So imagine the postman, your neighbors when they see the trash, anyone else who sees your mail, all seeing that someone is calling you a thief.

I have no idea if that's legal, so I'm not saying its the answer, but it worked in my case.

That is awesome !!!
 
Okay this BOI caught my eye because it's only about an hour away from me.

1 of the 3 post made by user ganggreenonmybumbum gave a thumb’s up to DH geckos. After reading it I thought it sounded like a possibility the owner of DH geckos would know more in regards to this user.

Anyway I went to check out DH geckos on facebook. In the albums I seen a few salamanders & even noticed a photo of a shipping box. It kind of looked like the same address on the box listed above with the name Daniel Heim but hard to make out. Just being curious I pulled the shipping number.

84012935.jpg


I seen that DH geckos facebook page had admins named Danny Heim & Sarah Martin. DH geckos is also a user on this site & verifies the name Danny Heim http://www.faunaclassifieds.com/forums/member.php?u=111490

I'm not accusing anyone of anything but I would think with the address Josh posted belonging Michael Heim, the other name Daniel Martin, & the info I just posted Mr Danny Heim of DH geckos could explain something’s or provide additional info.
 
Great info, Chris!

Danny Heim / Daniel Heim also has two other Fauna accounts:

dannyboylanc
DHgeckos

In addition he is mentioned as a "special guest" at the Havre de Grace reptile show in an October 2012 post on Facebook by Daniel at Incredible Geckos located in Coatesville, Pennsylvania. Perhaps you could try contacting this second Daniel to help get some resolution? [email protected]

Incredible Geckos Facebook Page

Whitepages also confirms that Daniel Heim resides at the same Lampeter Rd. address I listed earlier.
 
I'll be doing a little more work on this one when I get home in a couple of hours, but "ezekiel stoltzfus" (ganggreenonmybumbum) is Dan Heim (DHgeckos).
Three IP matches between the two accounts.

I just made a little post on DH Gecko's Facebook wall, linking to this thread and asking him to come here and explain why it appears that he's also "Ezekiel Stoltzfus", who just ripped a guy off on a trade. Five minutes later, their account settings are changed so that only "Friends" can post on their wall. Wonder why that is...

Cool deal, I might of actually figured something out for once. I was pretty confident but didn't want to come out & accuse anyone without giving them the chance to explain.
