    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....

Inquiry Fauna user mattk24 some things don't add up any info??

If you dont trust me, i can put Bills and other things the next week.

For the sake of keeping all of this wonderful skepticism going, I do feel the need to point out that Candace Beach once managed to "prove" she was Rhonda Alsabrook by supplying someone else's I.D. card - albeit briefly. Having access to one's documentation isn't the same as actually being that person. Much like the act of seemingly proving that one has animals in one's possession doesn't equate to any degree of certainty that said animals would actually be shipped to anyone who'd send money for them. Credibility is a foolish thing to so blithely piss away with childish antics on a forum. I think there's more than enough smoke circling this guy to justify anyone reading this thread to go on fire watch.
 
If someone attacked me, like they did this guy Well sorry I would not just let it happen either.... No proof of anything and your blowing him up, sad the way this Industry is now and such so Called "experts" that think they are better then some.... The Border Line Racist comments are uncalled for as well, Matt I would not worry about these guys or there comments, There are many other sites you can sell on, I would recommend going there.....

*Slow clap* - Alright, now that we've noted your displeasure;

Can you point out a "Border line racist comment"? Or would you like to assume that there are some since someone said the word "Mexican"?

If you recommend going to other sites, then great. Have at it. No one has "attacked" him, but merely said that some things seem fishy. No, there is no "proof" of anything, which is why it is being inquired about before-hand due to inconsistencies noted. Heck, I don't care if he can't speak (type) proper English, as most Americans whose first language is English, can't even do that. What I do care about is his total lack of keeping his attitude in check and conducting himself with a bit of decorum. That tells me everything I would ever need to know about him.
 
Too many "born and raised here" Americans do not have a solid command of the English language...and the ones that can (sort of) hold their own in spoken conversation, don't exactly shine in written communication. You must deny a lot of potential customers.
Actually that's rare, so far only a handful have been truly fired. FBI NICS has also denied a few.
 
I dont say you crossed them, you just Pay for them, to mexican smugglers i know where you buy all those animals, i dont care your bussines man, just let me alone, you think posting fake things about me i dont going to sell right? i'm sorry mr. 30 years !! probably you have your ''PERMIT'' or license, but i dont think Mexicos government give you license to import, Xenosaurus, abronia, agalychnis frogs, and lots of other protected fauna. Please be honestly and thats it bro, you only want to know where i obtained my lizards, but i repeat , thatss not your problem. i'm in san diego, you can came here? until this week?

First. I honestly don't care if you are a purple alien from the planet zorginoff. I also don't care about punctuation and grammar. While it does help make a valid point to have some of it, what you say is more important then how you say it.

Which is why I find the quote troubling.

I dont say you crossed them, you just Pay for them, to mexican smugglers i know where you buy all those animals,?

I am sorry, you know active smugglers. And you know where to get them from?

but i dont think Mexicos government give you license to import, Xenosaurus, abronia, agalychnis frogs, and lots of other protected fauna.

And you claim to not know if they are wild caught or captive bred, but you are trying to sell them as captive bred? Could the mods please bring back the original ad, I think it is important.

i'm in san diego, you can came here? until this week?

You admit you travel back and forth from mexico to the usa. Your ip traces back to Veracruz mexico which happens to be the same area that your Abronia taeniata is native too.

All this looks really bad. Care to explain it for me?

Sorry if this is has already been covered.
 
I am in San Diego and present no harm so I will meet.
Solution #1: Randy offered to meet in person, he is harmless.

have your customer/customers, come here to verify you shipped them the lizards,

Solution #2: Have your customers post here. As long as their name isn't Ttam Notnek, that could work.

Hello Jay, okay, lets do it...If you dont trust me, i can put Bills and other things the next week.
Solution #3 - Jay offered, you accepted to meet. Great

Having access to one's documentation isn't the same as actually being that person.
I agree with Dan (Fangthane), having access to "an" ID doesn't mean it belongs to you.
Solution #4 - In the past doing ID checks, I went as far as having someone send me a picture of themselves holding their ID.

please bring back the original ad,
Here is the wording:

I find the cries of racism to be offensive in this case. The questions of nationality arose due to the inconsistencies in the location given by the individual in question. Language was brought up because the individual clearly does not speak or write English as a first language. NOT that there is anything wrong with that; it is simply obvious. So, when this individual responds by saying he was born and bred in the US, it's clearly a lie. Same with the different locations. He insists he is in San Diego, yet posts from an IP address in Mexico.

If this person would say, "I live in both places. I travel." or "I'm learning English while I import animals" or whatever, I would have ZERO concerns. But he is clearly LYING about something. And that is what is concerning.

Someone please explain to me how on earth the top half of the signature shown on this image is in any way the top half of anything resembling "Matt Kenton".

Also, wouldn't this person's full legal name of "Matthew" be on a legal document like this?
 
Haha it is common knowledge I have been breeding these species for many years. Lots of proof of this many pics of babies and breedings.many generations. So nice try.

It is not a nice try, I know where you buy, and you are buying Babys, pregnant lizards, males, females, juvies, all of this is good for you to show your fake ''BREEDING GROUP'' and obviously later came here and other sites to sell your ''CAPTIVE BREED'' smuggled lizards. i dont care if you are a bad guy,
also i dont want to meet you, i know you are nervious now, i can post, your trades, your friends, your black bussines in the hobby. but I DONT CARE YOUR LIFE. Just let me alone, or really, you dont like what i'm going to post in the next days About jay sommers and others who buy Abronia at 30 usd, to came here to the us to sell them at $500.00 thats not correct my friend, is not correct attack People who you Dont know who are.

I posted mi REAL i.d. you said it is the solution to this problem. There is... so...
NOW WHAT YOU WANT FROM ME? or, may be need to change the papers, and now, You NEED TO POST HERE YOUR PERMITS TO IMPORT
MEXICAN ANIMALS, OR you're going to said you are breeding hahahahahahaha

POST YOUR IMPORT PERMITS, I DONT TRUST IN YOU NOTHING.
FOR THE MEXICAN SPECIES: ABRONNIA, XXENOSAURUS, AGALLYCHNIS, SCELOPHORRUS,

I was wondering the same things. The signature looks nothing like Matt and your correct about the legal name thing. I've never seen a government I'd with a nickname. I have 3 Matthew's in my family, all 3 go by Matt and all 3 have Matthew on their I'd.

My name is Matt Not common ''Mathew''.
Is not a nick name, also my signature not says ''Matt''
haha really you think is a fake I.D.???? hahaha
Poor people, what alse you want? a passport? your are gonna said is fake too???

:rolleyes::rolleyes::rolleyes::rolleyes::rolleyes:
 
I could easily with photo shop change that id to have my name, info and picture on it. It appears that's what matt did. Check out the date I drew an arrow pointing at in the sample id and check out what it says on Matt's. It should match his birth date but to me it doesn't look like it matches. He did a pretty good job trying to fool us but missed one little detail! It's also funny how he kept the 8/31 date, I found it on quite a few sample id's on Google.

Haha? really? you want the backside?
poor people..

08 31 is only the expiration date., i think a lot of people has that date

You are wrong,, and i m waiting JAY SOMMERS, posting his LEGAL PERMITS TO IMPORT MEXICAN PROTECTED SPECIES.

So what is your birthdate again?

And you are 5' 11" and 121 lbs? You know that it is pushing the very limits of what your body can take?

A body mass index of 16.9 means you may not have enough body fat to produce basic proteins depending on bone structure.

Seriously, seek medical help. Your weight to height is pushing closer to holocaust survivor then anything considered healthy.

I'm on my phone and can't see well. Does his photo have continued watermark over it? Additionally, the amount of blue versus face is out of proportion. Dl are designed to be close ups.

Are you serious? It says right on it that your birth day is 8/31. My id expires on my birthday and is always renewed on my birthday. Pretty sure it's the same for everyone else. So the only people who have 8/31 expiration dates are those who were born on 8/31.
