• In the past two days I have gotten emails asking about being requested to provide credit card info in order to register and also to make a post in the classifieds forums. PLEASE NOTE: In no instance will this site ask you for this sort of information. The only time any request for payment is made is if you choose to opt-in for a higher membership level, and that is done SOLELY through PayPal. Anything else is coming from a source other than this site. My guess is that this is coming through Google Adsense, but when I can get someone to send me a screen shot of this sort of request, I will know more.

    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.

News story: http://www.wcvb.com/news/dozens-of-...l 5 Boston&Content Type=Story&linkId=14843673

Located in New Bedford, Massachusetts. Trolled for free animals on Craig's List and Facebook so that they could flip. Also bred bearded dragons.

Have no personal involvement with either individual other than witnessing Jake post in several Facebook groups pictures of his adult, bearded dragons in cramped, dirty enclosures on some type of bird seed like substrate and no evidence of heat bulbs or UVB. He was combative when I stepped in to point out some flaws in his care as he was recommending new keepers to follow his lead.

Jake would also regularly post on Craig's List trying to sell baby bearded dragons who appeared too young for sale, skinny, and the vast majority missing large sections of their tail, feet, and limbs.

Attached are some images pulled from the news story/investigation.

Will also try share some screen shots from Facebook of people sharing their experiences with Jake and/or Sabrina.

These are screenshots from a thread in a Facebook group titled 508 Pets and Animals where Sabrina was active.

Blacked out the names and profile pictures to protect their privacy.

It appears that Sabrina has deleted her Facebook page but Jake's is still up for now. Attached is an image.

Also attaching a Craig's List ad that I believe Sabrina posted about a month ago trying to sell baby bearded dragons.
