Inquiry/Info/possible scammer
I came across his ad in the hognose classifieds, it was for a male anaconda het albino hognose for 500.00 (first red flag), they sell for roughly 125.00. So I posted on the thread asking for a picture and he emailed me a picture (second red flag), from [email protected]. I searched for the image on Google and the image was from the UK (red flag). I search the email and it lead me to a website for used guns (screen shot attached). I emailed about payment for hognose and he wanted money order (red flag), I requested his name and address for MO. This is what he sent (red flag) no where was Hugo part of his name.

At the same time I was texting the number that was associated with the email address on his firearm ad (screen shot). I finally got a name and a copy of his Identification, it matched what I was given except the name was Fernando Issac Morales. He wanted a postal money order for payment and would not ship the firearm through an FFL, on his end.
Be warned, it truly helps to check the BOI before you buy. I've seen this somewhere, "BOI 1ST, BUY/Sell 2nd"(Robert Walker).
This is as far as I've gotten but wanted to put it out there for everyone else.
