    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....

Info JJ Reddick{Hybrid Tegus 03) Pittsburgh

I had a incident with this kid JJ trying to trade me a so called half black dragon water monitor, he sent me pictures of this ugly water monitor and gave me the number for the person who so called bred it, funny thing that person told me the truth and said he was just his friend and JJ told him to tell me he bred it and he had the parents. When I called him out on it he wouldnt reply anymore. And yesterday he sent me a PM about the croc monitor and I called him out on the pictures once again and he told me he used someone else's pictures because all croc monitors look the same. SUPER SHADY GUY. Just thought everyone should know my experience with this kid. Not a good person to be on this forum.

Looks like the walls and authorities on here are slowly closing in on this person or person{s} from what I just read from Moderator hhmoore. I just wonder if we will hear from this person called "JJ Reddick" or will it just be another excuse or reasoning why he or they or the whole brady bunch did what they did and are still doing it? I would love to have that sav he or they or who the heck ever has listed but how do we truly know that this monitor is truly real and not just another photo theft or bogus post? Just like VaranusFricano just posted, he know is employing his friends to back up his bogus claims and reptiles just to get his scam across to get more reptiles so he can claim he bred them to get more reptiles so the chain keeps going and going and going...I think his track is running out and is about to hit a brick wall now since the Moderators are hot on his heels like a Komodo dragon on a blood trail, Good feasting!!!
 
HAH I knew it wouldn't take to much longer before JJ was caught scheming.

Attention anyone who bought from him:

If he sold you a 'morph' monitor or an 'odd' monitor HE LIED!!!

JJ had been trying to pass off normals as "hypos", "red phase", "yellow phase" etc. I guarantee you they're normals!

The large 3 foot male Savannah monitor he was trying to sell as a hypo and when questioned the ad was immediately edited then subsequently removed. I am looking to see if I still have the photos of that animal that he emailed me. But if someone on here bought it as a hypo, yellow or anything other then a normal you got scammed!!!!
 
In looking through some more posts, it looks like Jon's use of that account is fairly recent, and not exclusive (meaning that Josh also had posts with his own email and phone number...I just happened to hit a few of Jon's in a row when I looked earlier).
 
WOW this dude is on 2 other forums and tries to buy/sell tegus and what not. (i dont think anyone has delt with him but i will post a link to this thread)
the sites are TeguTalk.com & TheTegu.com
 
Did you ban Josh (JJ), or Jon? Or both?
So far, I've only banned the account Jon was using. Josh's original account is still active, and I'm waiting for a response.
 
Since there is a history of Josh letting Jon use his account in order to bypass a ban here, it looks like the only way to cure the problem is to get rid of both of them. TeguTerra03, and the other remaining accounts used by these two are being banned.
Thank you again, Dennis, for sniffing out/digging up those details...I figured they were there, but my efforts fell short.

No problem. :thumbsup:
 
It's nice to see everyone working together to resolve these issues :) Thank You everyone for eliminating another scammer to the industry at least from this site.
 
And I thank you, moderator hhmoore and super moderator dennis hultman in believing us and not just thinking we were trying to trash someones name without prior evidence and deceitful posting and even better, trying to talk to this character. Thanks again and one less or two less or a whole bunch less cause who knows exactly how many were using each others posts and so forth, from scamming hard working, honest people out of their money and reptiles in bogus and pathetic trades. I believe once again in the way of the BOID...
 
I'm almost embarassed to say that, while his name popped into my head a few times, that account went almost a year without me even noticing it.

Josh - I told you a while back that I was willing to consider that you had matured, and would be open to possibly letting you return on a probationary basis...but that it wouldn't happen by you trying to bypass your existing bans and creating new accounts. If you want to email me at [email protected], and make your case, I'll read it with an open mind. No guarantees...but you've got to be tired of having accounts banned by now; why not try the legitimate route?
