• 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.

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.

I came across a reptile expo happening in my area next month and since this will be my first trip I wanted to ask everyone what their opinions are.

Are they known as safe/ reputable most of the time? Cheaper maybe? Warnings?
 
Most people at expos are great to work with and reputable. Probably the the cheapest since no shipping is involved though it can vary. Some nice deals and some that I think just like showing off their animals.

Like always check over the animal you are interested in and ask the same questions you would ask anywhere else. It is uncommon to see illegal snakes at an expo, but it is possible. Just know that given states basic laws about local snakes.
 
Ask a lot of questions, especially about how well the animal is feeding, how long the seller has had it, whether or not the seller bred it, etc. At some you can find vendors with healthy mite-free high-quality animals that they produced right next to one that bought theirs from a wholesaler - or that were unpacked from the plane - the prior day.

Also remember that best price <> best value.

Since you have time look over the vendor list and do some research on the sellers before you go.
