    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....

I was in the process of doing a deal with Mathieu Griffin via email for a couple Albino Motley Males. The emails sounded "funny" so I was hesitant on the whole thing from the beginning. He sent me 2 counterfeit usps money orders for $340 OVER the quoted price. Instead of cashing them at the bank, I took them to the post office where I was reassured that they were fakes, but very good fakes.

I would post the different addresses they came from, but the Post office took it all for their investigation. I can say that His phone number was- 806-291-7476 and that it's a Texas number. He wanted me to ship to-
Mathieu Griffin
3519 horton ave
Baltimore MD 21225

And the money orders were sent from WI and the address on them was from Florida. Lots of bells going off, but I was curious just how dumb this guy thought I was, lol.

Anyways, thought I'd give everyone a head's up.

Frame them both, then string him along. He's just a troll scammer.
 
A friend of mine has a stack of them. Check out ebolamonkeyman.com He plays these scammers for quite a while, and sometimes gets them to send photos of themselves holding up ridiculous signs. It's pretty funny.
 
So someone needs to figure out how to fake the western unions or money orders for the money that they want back. How stupid do you think they would feel when they went to cash it and was told it was fake.
 
While that sounds fun, it would be doing the same illegal act of forgery / check fraud. Maybe a better idea would be to sign over one of your previous scam checks... ;-)
 
And the saga continues.... as I expected (although it took him longer than I expected) today I received this email......

Hello,


How are you doing there today and how is business hope you’re doing great. Well I just want you to know that the payment has been sent to you hopefully you will receive it today and here is the tracking number for the package (9470101699320008891579) so you will be receiving it from USPS (iship.com) Currier service. But there was a little problem with the amount on the check which I think it should not be a problem between me and you because according to the instruction which was given to my secretary was that to issue two different checks payment one for you for the exact amount for the snake and the second check payment for my cousin at the hospital to pay for her hospital bill, so the problem is that the amount that was suppose to be on your check she wrote it on my cousin check, and your own on her check.So what I want you to do for me now is that once you receive the check payment kindly take it to your bank cash it, deduct your money for the snake and do me a favor by sending the remaining balance to my cousin for her operation bill and below is the name and address which you’re sending the money to through Western Union Money Transfer.So just let me know as soon as
you get the payment so i can give you the name and address which you're going to send the remaining balance to via western union money transfer, and i hope you do understand this.
Hope to hear back from you soon..


hahahahaha like I'd actually send him any money. Will keep stringing him along as long as I can.
 
The sad thing is that they keep doing it because people keep falling for it :(

I wish people would be a little more sensible when it comes to their money, but some of them have to learn the hard way. I just hate seeing these scammers making a living doing it.
 
That's why I lead them on, I managed to get this one to send me a check express mail. Even if I were to assume the postage and checks were stolen and no actual cost, is still time and some level of value gone to him.
 
so, here's his latest email and my reply.....

Hi Mathieu,

Our shipping clerk is back from Western Union, see details below, there were fees associated with the western union money transfer so I deducted those from your balance as I feel that is not my responsibility.


Thanks, Dave Colling

Subject: Re: Western Union Details(Urgent)
Hello David,
Good Morning, I got the information you sent in the email, but western union could not verify the MTCN. The funds were not found on their system at the receiving location. Pls i need you to confirm the MTCN again and the total amount sent excluding the transfer charges.
Thank you and i will await to read from you.


So of course my reply is to send him back to western union again..... ;-)

Hi Mathieu,

So sorry about that, looking closer at the receipt there is a smudge and I misread it. The correct number is 794-370-8487 (note the next to last number is an 8, not a 6)

Total amount returned was $1789.99 after my payment and Western Union fees.


Thanks, Dave Colling
