    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.....

    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....

FRAUD ALERT: Connor McGraw from CT. I sent a couple of geckos and he was gonna send turtles in return. He said they arrived dead and sent me pictures of other geckos. Mine were bell albino and the ones he showed were normal. He then said they may have faded abd then said he disposed of them already and is coming up with excuses. The garbage does not run on weekends either. The last image is what the face of mine looked like (actual gecko)

That gecko (upside down) is definitely a normal and not bell. There is no way a gecko can change like that from cold or death. A gecko will get darker with cold and will not lose the black coloring.

Do you have any more pictures or just those?
 
In case you needed any more proof that you are being ripped off...look at Google images for "leopard gecko playing dead" and this is the first photo that appears. Look familiar?
All he did is steal someone's photo and crop it. Thieves are usually not that bright and this guy is no exception.

Conner's grandmother Maritza works as a secretary at Booth Hill School in Trumbull, CT. I'll PM you with her work email so you can let her know what her delinquent grandson has been up to. :)
 
Kile,
If you will check out the other thread that is linked here, you will see that the 'Itsalltender' Connor modus operandi is to get in people's faces and be loud and threatening.
In case they are trying to do that to you in private, don't back down, it appears to be just a lot of hot air on their part designed to put the hush on people (that doesn't work well here, we laugh at that sort of thing here, you know, the fake lawsuit threats).
 
And to hopefully prevent someone else from getting scammed by this guy. Any info anyone has I really hope it's posted here.
 
If the op could post pics of the geckos he sent connor I'd be happy to keep an eye out for him selling them in all the local groups im in. And the address he sent the geckos to would be really helpful!
 
Here is another number he may try to use 203-491-7090 I think it is a friend of his.

Kile
I will gladly give you a bearded dragon that he was trying to scam me out of, if we can work something out on shipping.
 
It went to 70 kings row.
both geckos are bell albino. The thing is, I'm trying to trade those geckos for baby turtles because my parents want me to get rid of the geckos. I already have turtles too that they can go with. So I can't just have anything. Its gotta be something I have room for which is more baby turtles lol
