    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 Xavier eller - xavier12

Oh and do you know if he is still living in VA? Or was he talking about moving during the short time you did know him?

Thanks :)
 
Well he'd seen a pic of the snake and offered a trade which I declined. Me and joe have only discussed the snake over text so idk how he got the other info.
 
Could be he is staying with grandparents, friends, another parent if parents aren't together. IP shows he is in NC, at least right now.
 
Xavier also claims to have a Het Clown/ Het Russo produced from Justin Kobylka that he is trying to sell. He "lost" the paperwork.

That's another thing. He changes the hets of what he has everyday. Its rediculous. At one point he told me and a friend he had the exact same snake to give us but changed the hets.
 
Thanks again for the info Valentina! :) I'm just trying to know what to watch out for here.

I hope he doesn't get someone, what a drag :/
 
Looks like he is indeed at his relative's (more than likely his dad's) house.

I wonder if Dad would like what he is doing? I bet a quick call might make this little guy settle down. Especially since dad's address is now on the internet, Xavier sent me a message and didn't sound happy about that part.

He just keep messaging me to trade him. He MUST be young. I don't think he is grasping any of this.

Tell him to meet me at the Charlotte Repticon & bring his snakes. :rolleyes:

While I don't know much about BPs, I know plenty who do at the show. If he has the snakes he says he does, then this shouldn't be a problem. :D
 
I haven't heard from him since this message I sent him after he kept on...
radera5:
"No cell phone. It's all good. Good luck with stuff. I'd consider being more honest about everything, actually having the snakes you say you have and you will do a little better.

Het's aren't het's without paperwork. Even then, no one is going to ever believe you. Drop it. Trades off due to you not being able to produce a picture.

Quit trying to scam people. You could end up in criminal court and you WILL get caught sooner or later. It's a bad road to take. I'll be calling your father, or mother, or sister, or aunt or whoever it is you might be with. I'll let them know all about what your doing and what will happen when your caught. Along with what could happen to them for this being done in their house.

Take care kiddo. Instead of arguing or telling me how you have the snakes, why don't you go onto that thread, admit yourself and move on. Apologize to people, get over it and just move on. Make money legitimately, not taking what's not yours."

Maybe a little exaggeration, but I tried.:rolleyes:

If you actually do it, I'd love to be a fly on the wall for that conversation. Hopefully it's not another FLHerps type of situation, where it's possibly adults hiding behind a kid to do their nefarious deeds.
 
After messaging Xavier asking where he got the Josie from this is what I got.

Him

i bought them from somebody who claims they got them from you in some type of deal

I asked

Who did they get it from?

Xavier:

some breeder on kingsnake

Me:

And you don't have a name? Someone told me you said you got them from me. I have emails stating that.

Xavier:

o look theres this girl that had this male that she thought was so then he backed out of our trade and said she had to ask you something and she told me you said it was a josie spotnose then i got it from her for my killer bee then i proed him out as your josie has head pattern the mustache and have one that looks like a light josie im not trying to run a scam or anything i was told it was a josie spotnose that you said it wa and i proved him out with the same thing you proved josie with a big normal female she.... that all i didnt know that she didnt get it from you so srry but im pretty positive these are josies though and i know radera told you.


Funny how his stories are all over the place. I guess he did not know who I was. Biggest mistake he ever made. Don't claim to sell snakes that come from breeders who have a good name. I will be contacted Justin to let him know there are "hets" that being sold with his name attached to them. This is someone who does not ever need to be in the hobby....

Joe Ellis
 
He is still on me to trade even though I said no deal. I just got this message from Xavier:
xavier12: "i had there dna tested "

More importantly, my husband just got off the phone with Tawanna, Xavier's mother.
I must say, she seems to be a very nice lady. She was completely upset and very happy we called her. I didn't speak to her myself, but I listed as Ian talked to her so I could post the info here.

I don't need to go into great detail but she did fill me in on a few things. She was at work, Ian didn't want to bother her much so he was trying to get her as much important info as possible. Ian didn't ask how old he was, but he is definitely younger. A teenager I would assume. She knew he has traded some reptiles on the internet but obviously had no idea of what he was now doing.

Tawanna really seemed legitimately concerned and said she would talk with him. I couldn't have asked for more from the conversation. I'll send her the link right now and maybe we will here from her as well.

I want to give her a sincere thank you for being a real parent and talking to her confused son.:thumbsup: I hope she gets through to him. No scammer is good but a kid has a real chance to turn things around IMO.
