    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 Watch for this guy? Brandon Goodrich?

Because this indavidual has turned his phone off and is no longer answering i will not able to prove a connection beteween him and another individual myself and others have had problems with on fauna. So i am posting some info because this guy is in the reptile trade. I recieved a sieres of derogitory text messages from a number i didn not recognize. The number is 352-459-9406 he first said his name was dave and then said it was Brandon Goodrich (like the tire). I called the police because this guy would not stop texting gross stuff. Hopfully it worked. I am not for sure how he got my number but i have not found him hear on fauna! He has an ad that was found by another fauna member http://www.faunaclassifieds.com/foru...86#post1445386 It is in this thread. I am not for sure who he is but he is creepy and sneeky BEWARE

If anyone has any info later on please post it i am very interested to see the outcome.
 
My unsolicited rewrite:

Don't mean to step on your toes, Barbie, but thought maybe I could polish this up a bit, or at least try to lay it out in a straighter line. It's all a bit convoluted...

As seen in this thread: http://www.faunaclassifieds.com/forums/showthread.php?t=299085&highlight=jobes

"Dan Jobes", aka rider91923, offered her a trade for a pied BP and a het pied. The subsequent pictures sent turned out to be fakes, probably stolen from generic Google images. It was later revealed by a Mod that "Dan Jobes" is actually Steven Miller, aka bpman850.

For more info on Steven Miller:

http://www.faunaclassifieds.com/forums/showthread.php?t=300970&highlight=steven+miller

Fast-forward a bit and we come to the "Mat Jobe", aka Caddyon22s, situation seen here: http://www.faunaclassifieds.com/forums/showthread.php?t=312227

As it turns out, there's a very high likelihood that "Mat Jobe" is actually Steven Miller.

Now, here's when we get to the prank calls/texts that Barbie has claimed to receive. In the midst of the "Mat Jobe" thread, it's shown that "Mat" asked for a potential buyer to send a money order to him, to be made payable to "David Arroyo", supposedly "Mat's" father.

See this post: http://www.faunaclassifieds.com/forums/showpost.php?p=1444101&postcount=66

The prank calls originated from the number 352-459-9406. Initially the caller identified himself as David, then apparently decided he'd rather be known as Brandon. I'm assuming that this is where Barbie made the leap to believing that it was directly related to the "Mat Jobe" affair, since he claimed his dad's name is David. The name, and the circumstancial evidence of the pranks beginning while she's actively involved with the "Mat Jobe" thread, I believe are what she's basing her assumptions on.

Fauna member LauraB did a web search on the 352 number and found this Craigslist ad: http://www.faunaclassifieds.com/forums/showpost.php?p=1445356&postcount=75

It's an ad for a boa constrictor from someone in Ocala, Florida. Sooo, while it may be debatable whether or not the inappropriate calls/texts are directly related to the previously mentioned scammers, if they were in fact received by Barbie, I believe they're relevant in showing how someone who obviously has at least some involvement in the snake trade chooses to conduct himself.

At this point, I think the most pressing question should be whether or not the OP has saved the texts and if she can provide screen shots of them to prove her claims.
 
Very nice recap, Dan!

I agree. I posted Brandon's Craigslist ad only because I found it interesting that he was advertising a snake for sale, in Florida, and mentioned in the ad he was in need of a vehicle, as I recall at least one of the other personalities ("Mat Jobe"/Steve Miller?) had also mentioned. I was not directly intimating that this Brandon person was 1) an alias of Steve Miller or Mat Jobe or, 2) was involved with either of them. It was just a curious finding based on the phone number Barbie posted.
 
Ok i apreaciate that you cleared it up but the whole point of this thread being by itself was because i can not prove a connection between thies people, i dont know if they are the same or if they know each other. Hear are some facts. The countys from the numbers steven and brandon share are about an hour and a half away give or take. Brandon is not on fauna so i do not know how he got my number (steven does have my number from when he tried to scam me). Brandon said he was David, that could be a coincidence. The voice on the answering machine is a young man and the short talk i had with him he sounded around the same age but i could not tell about the accent. I did a intellius search on the number and it is a new phone and it is not link to any bills or addresses. So this guy is a ghost. He is however trying to sell a snake on craigslist (wich is why i posted what laura found) so i am letting people be aware of his antics. I do have the text messages but not the call of coarse:) I could text them to my email and post them or take pics of them what ever is better. The first text was the worst and then the call after that he was toying with me to be a jerk. I was not impressed.

I think that's a bit unfair. He's just joined and hasn't been posting much, it is not unheard of for kids to be posting on public forums bypassing rules and whatnot.

If I hadn't been on here for a while and seen barbie's postings in other places and was familiar with a wide range of posting styles...I would have wondered about her age, too, just based on that ONE post content, spelling, and grammar.
 
Warning: let's keep this on topic, if you want to make comments back and forth unrelated to the topic, take it to PMs
 
Ok so back on topic lol!!! I have bad grammar, my bad... oh and cant spell for my life but my point should be heard not my spelling!! But judging by this guy i am not the only one who seems like a kid. How do you guys want me to post the texts?
 
I just need to know. Laura, is that Black Sabbath tattoo someone you know? Between that guy and the artist they couldn't figure it out? Wow, talk about trashed! I haven't been that messed up since the '90s. Anyway Rock On! Keep it HARD & LOUD!

If you happen to have an Android, or other smartphone, there may be a screen shot function built-in, or available on the market. The most effective way would be to take screen shots and just edit out any profanity with Paint, or some other photo editing software. Or you could just take photographs of the various text screens.
 
:shootfootOk or not:( I do not have the texts anymore it has been a couple days and i text so much that they wher pushed outby auto delete!! Sorry guys. All i can say is that thier is no other way i would get this guys number except this situation. I have no proof and am sad to have to say it. I guess now i know to lock them or post them right away.
