    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 Garret Smith ( Scammer )

Chris. You are good at calling people names and making up things. But when asked 2 simple questions you have nothing to say? This is what I expected from you.

1. How is this a scam?
2. How am I a bad guy?

Garrett


He was looking/asking (chris) for answer's to his question's 1 and 2.. After new finding's - Wonder if this sum's it up................ !!!
 
Hi Chris,
yes, I know why there is a delay. Actually, 10 month is a long time. But I expected something like 6-10 month anyway from the beginning. As it is like a decade that Pakistan didn´t allow exports.
Garrett posted weeks ago a document from the chamber of commerz from Pakistan. Showing that they agreed those animals can leave the country. I have similar documents allowing the export from Pakistan to Germany. But those are not Cites documents. The allowance by the Chamber of Commerce and industry is just 50% of the paperwork.
The Cites documents I haven´t asked for. Those only have a validy of 1 month (that varies from country to country, in Germany we have 6 month). And thats why we decided to ship all to the US and then reexport to Germany. That was just a logistical decission. In Germany the import Cites can take a while, in the US the import procedure is much easier and faster. Thats why I was not and am still not interested to see the documents from Pakistan to the US. I will get copies anyway when we have the Export documents issued in the US and ask for the import documents here. There I have to proof the history and legal ways of the animals. If I cannot proof that 100% I don´t get the allowance to import.

You asked for the telefonnumber. Just go back this threat and see the documents Garrett provided. Actually it will take you like 20 seconds to find the telefonnumber on google....
This is not a secret.

Regards, Markus

Perhaps you could clear up some of the confusion here by elaborating a bit more descriptively. I get that Pakistan hasn't been exporting for a decade. You've amplified that well enough. But what does that have to do with this deal? You said the document (which is now in question thanks to some awesome detective work by some members here) show that they agree those animals can leave the country. You said you know where there is a delay. Please share your knowledge.
 
I am sorry about the gender issue. I did not know.

And yes, it is opinions. We have tried yell, taunting, and insulting. Since we went down that road a few times, I thought we could change it up.

It is easy to play the victim when you get the type of comments you and others have been directing at Mr. Smith.

I would like to get to the bottom of this. I think clam and rational conversation is the way.

I am not asking you not participate in the dialogue. Just refrain from getting Mr Smith in a position that he feels he has to defend himself, instead of explain himself.

I might know a few people in Pakistan that can help get to the bottom of this. But with out a reference number, it is impossible. And the reference number on the page was edited out or never existed.

You can detect a "yell" looking at a typed message? Man you're good! So asking valid questions is now considered "taunting"? If "Mr. Smith" is in a position where he feels he has to defend himself, it is HIS OWN FAULT! Ever heard the phrase "we teach others how to treat us"? Garrett has had enough opportunity to clear this up and do the right thing. So far you seem to be on a mission to "call out" members here. Have you "called out" Garrett? I appreciate what you are trying to do, but perhaps you will find yourself walking on eggshells.

I have heard of that phrase. I understand why you are angry. If 1/2 of the stuff that was said to you was said to me, I would be angry. He has done some very unproductive things. I get it.

I have called Mr. Smith out for his behaviour. I have.


Me said:
He and a lot of people have gotten carried away in this thread. Yourself (Mr. Smith) included.

Here is what I would do, if I was in your (Mr. Smith) place.

I would say I was sorry for my behaviour. I would tell Mr. Rodriguez that he will get his money back as soon as you have. I would contact him directly, set up payment plans and if that does not work, keep the lines of commutations open. I would suck it up, do the right thing, even if it completely sucks for me.

I would completely stop taunting, attacking, and even communicating with everyone but Mr. Rodriguez. You can post what you want to do and how you think this can be resolved.

I don't like to quote myself. So please, if you are going to "call me out" for something, make it good.

I have told him to stop taunting, attacking and even communicating with you. I have told him, he needs to say he is sorry for his behaviour. I have not asked you to do that.

Lastly.

Do you find irony in the fact that you say I am "good" for detecting yelling in a message, as you yelled at me in a message?

You can detect a "yell"... HIS OWN FAULT!

http://www.newstatesman.com/sci-tech/2014/04/how-capital-letters-became-internet-code-shouting

And I am not completely against yelling, it can be very therapeutic. Primal screaming as be proven to reduce stress and increase metal cognition.

But some times, it becomes disruptive to the communication process.

Apology accepted, no harm, no foul.

Now, you thinking I should do, as you do, or as you ask or tell me to do, I don't know where you're from or who you are,(and it doesn't matter) but I'm a former Marine, who fought for this GREAT Country's FREEDOMS, and one of those FREEDOMS is the FREEDOM OF SPEECH, I will respond to posts here on this GREAT website's BOI, the way I see fit, not the way you think I should.

Bottom line, I respect & appreciate your take on this BOI thread, but you have NO RIGHT, to ask or tell me how I should respond to anyone, especially frogman. If he's so thinned skin, and you think he can't take it, he should of never taken money from folks & given them nothing but excuses in return, and then after all that, he comes here running his mouth to everyone who posted, and how because of this BOI thread, he's done more business than ever, in addition, he's always trying to leave bad karma on ALL of us, with snide and/or rude remarks. I could go on for days about Garrett Smith, no need, I'm sure you get my drift.

One more thing, after 10 months of Michael trying & this BOI thread for the last 3 months & 7 days trying to get to the bottom of this, what makes you think being calm is going to get you to the bottom of this?

In closing, you do things your way, I'll do things my way, the way we express our selves in speech and/or actions, is also our right, not to mention, our personality~~

You called me out, and still don't know why.:shrug01:

You have this thing "CALLING folks OUT" don't you think it's time to call out Garrett??

Have a GREAT Day!

I have called out Mr. Smith. I even told him to apologize. I would never ask you to remind quite or exclude you from the conversation.

I understand your frustration with Mr. Smith, but has it resulted in any really change?

The same could be asked of you, has anything you've done in the extremely short time you've been on this post, resulted in any real change with frogman?

Believe me when I tell you, you don't have a clue, he doesn't frustrate me AT ALL!

It is, what it is, frogman needs to pay those he owes, and only then, will I go away.:thumbsup:

Couldn't have said it better. I tried to warn him with the eggshell comment. Was referring to tropical storm Lynn. Stay tuned for tropical storm boapit!
 
Everyone is going to post as they wish. This site has been successful for a lot of years without anyone telling everyone else how they should post.

There is proof that Garrett told the op that the deal was between the two of them. It's as clear as day to me they aren't "partners" and Garrett owes him the money.

I want to make this very clear. I am just trying to stop him from deflecting the conversation away from the facts and unto personal attacks. Part of him being able to deflect from the facts of the case is to stop giving him reasons to.

Only time will tell. I will say this. He is no longer deflecting from the conversation by attacking you and Mr. Kennard. I honestly think that now we have called his proof into question, we will be hearing a lot less from him. I will not attack him or taunt him. I will simply place the facts in front of him and ask for answers.

Couldn't have said it better. I tried to warn him with the eggshell comment. Was referring to tropical storm Lynn. Stay tuned for tropical storm boapit!

I don't understand your position on this. If someone disagrees with you then need to be punished? That is interesting. I do not know anyone called boapit. But honestly, I don't get why you are playing into Mr. Smiths hands.

He wants to distract from the conversation by getting you guys to be unreasonable. He wants you to behave like this. You are doing everything he wants you to do.

As far as I am considered, I will not allow him to derail this away from the facts and into personal attacks.


I need to makes this very clear. If you feel that playing Mr. Smiths game is what you should be doing. You are doing exactly what he wants you do to.

You are giving him away out of explaining himself, while playing the victim card.

Instead of that, why not just calmly and rationally demand answers the op's problem?

HOLY COW, WOW! I'm completely blown away by this statement! Who are you kidding? You have some super human powers, where you can control what frogman does, or says?

Let me back up a moment superman, tell us how your going to accomplish this, now, be sure to put it in laymen English, I'm pretty simple.

I must say, this window has never tasted so good!:thumbsup:

BINGO! You hit the nail on the head Dan.

I have blocked Ms Peterson and a few others. It makes it much easier to communicate.

Chris, You still haven't answered the 2 very simple questions that I have asked of you. Why is that?


Garrett Smith

Say with me Dan, Your going to love how this ends.

If he has all the paperwork, then why not just post it on this thread, be done with it?

You did post this.

attachment.php


And you know and I know that document is as crooked as a dogs hind leg.

The webpage is parked. It was registered too a person in washington state. Name withheld. Official papers would have the official webpage on them. www.KcCi.com.pk but nope. Fake website.


https://who.is/whois/https://www.karachichamber.com


The phone numbers are not connected to Karachi chamber. They are very close, a few digits off, but not correct.

The address for your shipper, is way off. Techno office is on grant street NOT i,i chundrighar road. Once again, a few blocks off.

Then there is the suit number. Guess what, does not exist. All suits in the building are labelled with numbers and letters. Like gw-30.

Mab trading and logistics turns up nothing.

You start to see the problem?

The official paper work has a fake website, phone numbers that are not connected to anything official.

Your trader address does not turn up. The company does not seem to exist. Your zoo permit no looks off.

The list is endless.

Feel free to prove me wrong, but nothing checks out.

BINGO! You hit the nail on the head Dan.

That is what I am worried about Mr. Smith. How this will end.

You provided the above paper work to the op.

Care to explain how there is a wrong address for the chambers department. How the exporter does not seem to exist. How there is no reference number. How the phone numbers don't actually call the chambers department. How the permit numbers look off. How the exporters office building does not actually exist?


I really want to be with you on this, but first we need to explain the problems with your documents.
 
I havent communicated with Mike direct on this site, because I think its unprofessional. We have communicated via phone, texting, email and IM…. But for this I feel its appropriate.

Mike,

I have kept my contact in Pakistan in the loop of all your accusations that you claimed on this public site. He has offered to talk to you direct, via Skype. You can ask him any questions that you would like. About any dates, time lines, paperwork etc anything. He is 12 hours ahead of our time and will talk to you anytime day or night. Let me know and I will set it up.

Garrett Smith
 
Finally taking the right step. You could have set up those meeting long before any of this happened bit at least hell be able to talk to them and figure it all out.

Mr. Smith. Please explain your paper work you offered as proof on this site? It is very clear that something is really wrong with it.
