    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....

watch out for smith cole

im just having some fun with this guy, but in all seriousness watch out for him. i have a fake cashiers check from him for 13500.00. the funny part is that they couldnt even spell dollars correctly, they spelled it dllars. anyway i posted the emails, enjoy them.


you only sent 13500. that doesnt even cover the price of the snakes. 40000
remember. but you can make payments if you need to. i will put the check
in my bank and hold the money until you get me the rest. by the way, can
you send the rest via paypal, its quicker that way. use this email address
and i will look for the final payment tonight.

So you illgally smuggled the snakes into the country and now you're warning people to be wary of somebody else? I think the whole deal sounds extremely fishy.
 
I think you need to reread the 1st sentence in his post.

The guy attempted a scam on Greg & now Greg's messing with his head...

BTW, Greg...I LOVED the part on the giraffe ball pythons! :)
 
its all in fun

i was just messing with the guy to see how much i could get away with before he caught on. i dont smuggle blue beauties, it was a joke.
i will contact the bank and let them know whats up though.
 
I think it's all part of the goofy plot that Greg's concocted for humor and dodge giving the scammer any personal info.

I'm taking it that you also believe that his blue beauties are het for Giraffe ball pythons? :rofl:
 
I was wondering about that since I've never heard of that morph, but at the same time there are a lot of morphs I haven't heard of.

I'm sorry, I didn't know at what time the MO was recieved and when you figured out that it was a fake. I assumed you told him that -before- knowing you were scammed. It was a mistake on my part, and now that I'm "in the loop" it is actually quite entertaining.

That and blue beauties are a totally different species of snake, so there's no way they could produce ball python babies, lmao. Plus he said he knew the guy was a scammer, and was taking him along for a ride :D
 
And another thing learned! Whoa, once I think I have a fairly good footing I get knocked right back on my butt.
 
heres the latest, he sent me this money order for two blue beauty males for a total of 20 grand. he wants me to cash this, send 3500 back to him and wait for the rest. i told him i need all of his and his shippers contact info before i can proceed any further. next im going to tell him that i lost the first one and need a new on sent to me. i just wonder how long i can string him on.

Send him his 3500, in Monopoly money. It would be worth the price of the board game just to see his reaction :rofl:
 
monopoly money

thats hilarious, if i can get his info i will definitely do that. i dont think he will divulge that info to me. mabey i will send him two pics of blue beauties with it. i doubt he even knows what blue beauties are.
 
the latest

this is the latest on this, im going to send the monopoly money and see where it goes from there.


if your name is michael donald, why are you going under the name smith cole.
i will send you 5000.00 to this address. but when do i get the rest of the
money for my snakes.

Tell him your bank requires $100 in CASH to deposit the check, and that he should overnight it to you. :)
Excellent addition to the fun!! :rofl:
 
im wondering how much garbage i can throw at him before he realizes whats up. heres the next conversation.

i still havent made it to the bank yet, i broke the refrajimigilitator on my
car and need to get it fixed. it should be about a week or so and i can get
to the bank. your snakes just had a healthy serving of keilbasa and need
time to digest before they can be in transit. if you want i have a cashiers
check for 8500.00 i can send you and keep the 3500.00 and send the rest back
to me via western union. what address can i reach you at personally?
