Responding to email notices you receive.
**************************************************
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.

IMPORTANT! PLEASE READ!! About the Google Adsense ads being displayed

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....

You were told to call wildlife. If you dont wish to do that thats not my problem. They have my proof!
Aaaaaaaand your credibility is gone. I thought you might be telling the truth and actually had proof of what happened right up until you posted this. I believe Lucille is correct in assuming you have posted no proof because you have none. Im not saying that particular seller is any good or not, but you are definitely on my DO NOT DO BUSINESS WITH list.

Where? I see a random number posted in one of your posts, but it says nothing about it being the number for "wildlife"
Also, do you really think that an agent that is doing checking into someone is going to give a random person information on something that is being investigated? Especially if they have no proof of being involved with said person?
I highly doubt it.If you're so adamant about us calling to verify your story, then give us FACTS to check. If not, then you're playing a card that every other person out there plays when they have no evidence.

I do believe he is on the moon, and not in Texas. NASA has all the required evidence so call them and they will prove it to you.

He was caught! You guys didnt have to believe me at all. You didnt have to believe I met with wildlife but he was caught. So regardless if you think im full of it here it is. And its done. Im satisfied that for now no one else will be scammed by this person!
Finally.

His name isn't what you said it was. Just throwing that out there.

I'm thinking Kai Xu might sound like Fay Loo(Fei Lou) when pronounced out loud, which could explain the discrepancy in the names.

I know Pasodama but, according to the OP that was during the middle of an investigation. Maybe the OP was just repeating what USF&W told her and maybe USF&W didn't have all the facts at the time.
The thing that lends creedence to the OP's story is that all parties were Canadian and the OP mentions an Asian name that is potentially working with another person(a girlfriend). Then 3 months later two Canadians with Asian names get arrested for the exact crime(smuggling) the OP claimed was being investigated. What are the chances of the OP knowing 3 months in advance of an investigation involving a Chinese Canadian smuggling turtles? Also why would the OP bother resurrecting this thread?
For the record I have no connection to the OP or anyone involved. I just find the story interesting not too unbelievable.

Two (and a suspected third) identities took to another venue to solicit suppliers after having been "caught" so often here. Two have recently vanished despite previously frequent activity levels. I am curious to see if the third does as well.

I wasn't questioning credibility.
Just pointing out that the name, which the OP had given, seemed to have been corrected (by the OP) as being that of the "smuggler's"/"scammer's" father.
So, that could have been another reason why the name/s, in the article, was not the same name as what had, initially, been given in this thread.
Hope that makes sense. Haven't had any coffee yet. LoL

Theres been so many responses I also havent looked back to re read mine. However I believe I said that fai luo was one of the aliases. Im not sure if I mentioned that. But I gave a buddy the lic plate and that was the name that turned up. Wildlife had that name his name and that of his girfriends name. That was also the name he went by on facebook. I could have sworn I mentioned that. Again Ill have to read thru again.

Thank you. Yes when I met with Wildlife the agent knew where the guy lived knew where he ate what he drove his girlfriends name his dads name who the car was registered to, had his facebook hers everything. He already had pictures of the guy I met with, and I showed him the picture I had of this guy and he pulled out a print out of the same person, out of a few other Asian people.
I was asked by wildlife to not say anything due to the fact they needed more evidence to catch this guy. He had a runner and they needed to find out who that was that was passing back and forth across the border. And didnt want him to change any of his habits or even be alerted to the fact that wildlife was looking. I dont think my post did too much harm with the investigation as he was, well.. He was caught right? The only thing now that I want to do is to track down the others that had come forward to me after my post on facebook, and tell them he was caught. Sadly I didnt keep their pms or the links to the threads if they are even still posted.
I am honestly just glad this is done with. Thank you to those that did have faith I was full of crap. I just hope those that did now see I wasnt full of it lol. Thanks again.
