    **************************************************
    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.....

    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 Pixie77 - fraud

I sent the payment to [email protected]. His name here is turtledan77 and this is the post I replied to. He was also very good with emailing back until unpaid and that's when he stopped. I asked for tracking number Monday and no email yet. Ill let you know how it goes http://www.faunaclassifieds.com/forums/showthread.php?p=1777197#post1777197

Spickedan, it looks like you are confusing me with somebody else. My paypal address is not what you have listed above and I have never been in contact with you. Can you help me understand why you believe differently?
 
Dan as in spickedan, please provide the email exchanges you had so that we can see the account you were discussing things with. How did you first make contact?
 
Ok turtledan77, i'm afraid your account has been hi-jacked or something like that. I came into contact by clicking on your profile, and clicking "send e-mail to turtledan77". I guess the e-mail address was hi-jacked and redirected me to "[email protected]" instead of your real e-mail address.
 
My guess is that this guy was cherry picking interested buyers from my "for sale" thread and emailing them pretending to be me? Somebody mentioned that I reposted this ad though? (I didn't) Do you have a link to this reposted ad?
 
Did you pay this guy with your Paypal balance or via a credit card through Paypal? If via credit card, call your credit card company and file a chargeback ASAP.
 
The messages are a bit out of order, but basically I ask some questions like how big they are, how old, pics, etc. He then tells me info about them and says they're $100. I explained how I'm 15, want to start breeding turtles and am devastated because I already lost 2 due to outdoor predators, so i'll be keeping them inside, etc. He says ok then $75 shipped. I thought this was an awesome deal, as you can read I was very happy and excited but it was too good to be true. After payment no more replies.

Turtledan, I paid through PayPal regularly. I'm not sure how I got his e-mail address then...also afterwards I sent him this e-mail to maybe guilt him into doing some good "Ok so it's 6 pm Thursday and no turtle. As I said I'm a 15 year old kid whose been saving up working all summer for this turtle. If you would please send a tracking number if you shipped him although I highly doubt it at this point. I don't know how you could sleep at night knowing a 15 year old kids summer work went down the drain and into your pocket. If you have a change of heart and return the money or send the turtle, great. But if not, you're truly the scum that plagues the earth. Good luck sleeping tonight.
 
With all due respect, Dan Johnson, are you now or were you somehow connected to Rock 'N Roll A' La Mode or Christie's Dairy Delights in Palatine?
 
From one Dan to another... I'm sorry you got taken by this guy. I could have done a better job of closing that thread once the turtles were sold and that probably would have prevented this whole thing. I'm sorry!
 
Dan Roselli. Take a moment and think before you answer this question.
Who made first contact. Did you contact Daniel (Turtledan77) OR did Turtledan contact you. I see you expressed interest in his turtles. How did he contact you. Think before you respond.
 
Mr Roselli,
If you are only 15, why does your registration indicate a much different age? And why does your email show a different name?

Please post a screen shot of your PayPal payment to confirm that aspect of your story.

I'll address the email situation later - I have a reason for doing this piecemeal.
 
Uh, so just clarifying...

Ray states
Pixie77 = [email protected] = Mr. Washington / Williams McGee

Dan Roselli / Bob Peterson says
[email protected] = the Paypal account Daniel Johnson / Turtledan77 (via the d_mcdaniel2 email account) told him to send money to.

Mariah says
[email protected] = the Paypal account Pixie77 / Charles Washington (via the d_mcdaniel2 email account) told her to send money to.

And Daniel Johnson confirms that his email address is actually [email protected]?
 
Robert Walker I put my email out on Dan's profile so I guess he saw it publicly and that's how I he contacted me, although the first email I received from him was an answer to a question I asked via email. Hhmoore unfortunately I made this account back in 2011 and so I put false info to hide my identity (because I was young and tried to be as safe as possible on the Internet). I did the same thing with my ail address too. Agoralyx yes that's correct
