Has anyone ever dealt with this person? We agreed that i would send her a money order for some amazon tree boas she has (4.4 with all females gravid)and as soon as i sent her the confirmation number she would also ship her boas to me. (same day) This was at about 1:30pm and here it is 7:20pm and still no word. I have e-mailed her stating that if i didn't recieve a tracking number tonight i was going to cancel the money arder at MIDNIGHT....still no response.... I just want to know if anyone else has dealt with her and what happened. any help is greatly appreciated.

oh no!!!
ian,
i too was inquiring about the amazons, but i get a different name (mike long). i inquired about mike long yesterday or the day before and haven't had any response. i did not ship the money due to the fact that he/she has a hotmail account and it concerned me along with the fact that no response was given.
good luck buddy, jeremy has a couple hotmail accounts.

Are you saying that Jeremy Rennison, Mike Long and sara Perry may be the same person? Are there any other aliases i should watch out for? I may not be the MOST respected person here but i have never and will never try to screw someone out of their hard earned money. And i just can't see the reasoning behind a person who would do so. The address that i sent the postal money order to is :
3008 Bert St. #406
Fort Worth TX 76117

If anyone can verify that this is the same address as someone who has ripped them off please let me know.

I also was interested in the boas and was given this address to send money to Misty Minor 3527 Purington Ave Ft. Worth Texas 76103. Please let us know how you make out. Ian email me I would like to price you were given, I have not sent any money yet and will not until I find out how you make out. Charlie

Now isn't this something?....It's ALMOST comical. Does anyone know who this person really is? I am in the process of planning a trip to Fort Worth next week and would like to know who it is that i am going to visit. I take matters like this very seriously. Things like this is what ruins it for the rest of us that truely LOVE this hobby. Does this person really think that we are just STUPID or something? It is times like these that make me appreciate all the good,honest people that contribute to this hobby and make it worth doing. Someone please tell me who this person really is. I know that someone knows, If you know who this person is and you are keeping quiet to defend him/her then you are just as low in my book.

ian,
i was not saying that they are the same person, just that it seemed funny that i was inquiring about the same animals through a different name. and now it's even funnier that there is yet another name on the animals in question.
i may just be really paranoid since past bad deals, but i just wanna make things known that seem strange to me.
again, good luck and keep me posted,
steve

she just e-mailed me after i wrote my final e-mail to her letting her know just how angry i was(I was probably overly hostile) but like you steve i am wary, especially when the person won't reply to repeated e-mails. Now she is saying i don't know what i am talking about and that the snakes are at Airborne Express waiting until she calls them to give the ok to ship.( I don't think it works like that)they either ship it or they don't they don't baby sit packages...at least not to my knowlege. I told her i had cancelled the money order(I haven't i am giving her until 10am tomorrow. Maybe i completely wrong about her but my gut tells me otherwise. But if i AM wrong about her, then i apologize in advance.....we'll see i guess.

I have reason to believe that this person is the same person that screwed me royally in a deal last year. His name is Daniel Strong and he lives in Fort Worth, TX, same city I live in. AVOID THIS PERSON! Ian, my advice would be to cancel your money order ASAP. Here is a link to my post from last year detailing what happened in my dealings with him:

I appreciate the help and pointers guys, really i do. just as long as we all watch out for each other we should be ok.

Ian-

The reason I believe it to be the same person is:
A.) The person lives in Fort Worth, same city Daniel lives in.
B.) The animals he/she advertises are some of the same that Daniel used to keep (Phelsuma standingi, ball pythons, leopard geckos, tree boas etc).
C.)Someone called the Fort Worth Zoo Herp. Dept. (where my husband works) not too long ago and was trying "get rid" of some Amazon Tree Boas, when this person was asked where they got the boas they said "from Daniel Strong".
D.) Daniel was always using fake names, both male and female, and always used hotmail type email accounts.

I had already emailed this same person, orchid449@hotmail.com last night before the inquiry on this board was even made. I asked about his animals and guess what? He didn't reply to my email, LOL, guess he didn't like my name.

Can i cancel a postal money order over the phone or will i have to go to the post office?
Ian Dungan Re: Sara Perry- orchid449@hotmail.com- (inquiry)
5800.html Posted At 13:33:02 07/14/2001

The post office POSTMASTER told me there is no way to cancel a money order. this is unacceptable. I am sorry to sara perry for what i said about her. I found her phone number online and called her up a few minutes ago, her boyfriend mike is using her name and address i am guessing he wants to be anonymous. someone please tell me what i can do here, i want to give them the opportunity to make this right but i feel like time is slipping away. she promised they would ship them today but i really doubt that. So i can't cancel the money order and i can't get the snakes...what CAN I get? or do?

Their is nothing you can do about a money order. Its payment in lieu of cash. But you should have checked into this prior to sending any monies out. Unless she ships, you have lost your money. Your only recourse is bringing it to the Postmasters attenion and possibly filing some kind of a complaint. If on the other hand you can prove that the name is ficticious, than that would be a different story and I would certainly attempt to notify the Police in that area to see if others have been taken as well.

Her telephone is in a "Ruth K. Perry's" name. Although i didn't deal with a Ruth or a Mike(her "boyfriend's" name) I dealt with Sara. Although everytime I have called and talked to her she blamed everything on her boyfiend (Mike) but didn't seem to give a damn. This "Mike" just never hapens to be home when i call. Hmm.....My attorney has informed me that if she does not RETURN my money order unopened that it constitutes Fraud and Theft. And since it is through the the mail and across the state lines that is a Federal Crime.I have contacted The Fort Worth FBI office and they seem to already be investigating this person. They informed me that they would notify me if she attempted to cash the Money Order. Thats where he says the FBI will make an arrest and return my money order. So one way or the other I will get my money order. I really appreciate all the help from you guys. I am also trying to Stop Delivery on this mail item but that is an uphill battle with some very ignorant people who really could care less. If i can't have it stopped then i suppose it's up to her to think this through and just RETURN TO SENDER so we can forget about this whole incident.
I also know that this persons name is Sara Perry because thats the name I made the money order out to, Address and all. I also Filled out the "FOR" section of the Money Order and wrote "8 Adult Amazon Tree Boas 4.4".
I really hope that all of this was worth 165.00 for Sara Perry. ( AKA Mike Long) and probably many other aliases. So everyone WATCH OUT for this person. She is bad business, blaming everything on an imaginary boyfriend. She claims she doesn't know what I am talking about, and that my beef is with "Mike" but she had me make the money order out in HER NAME."Sara Perry"
I am satisfied if she goes to jail, fed time is slow time, i hear. :) thanks all for your support and advice.

Sara, I just hope that you return that money order UNOPENED like you stated that you would on the phone. You said you were the only one with a key to the mailbox so there are NO EXCUSES.
You said earlier today that "mike" would ship me the snakes when he got home. then not 10 minutes later, you offer them to shady1d12@aol.com for sale. here is a copy of the e-mail.

STILL NO MONEY OR SNAKES SARA! Quit lying to me. I called sara perry this morning and all she could say was that she didn't accept the priority mail package the envelope the money order was in. Just wrote Return To Sender and handed it back to the postman. This is complete B.S!! the package WAS accepted, if it was NOT accepted then the postman would NOT have marked it as such. THIS is why i sent it with delivery confirmation.
So sara, the time has come to stop dancing around the fire.
Obviously this does not phase you, you have wrote me via e-mail saying to stop these "slanderous" remarks, but you will say NOTHING to defend yourself??????????
These are the actions of a CROOK. I want my money. I could care less if you are a female, you'r lucky I don't break your legs for this.(Only because I am such a nice person do i NOT do this :P ) To me you are just a common thief. you deserve MUCH worse for what you are doing to this hobby.
BOTTOM LINE= Have my money here by tomorrow. I have a man IN Fort Worth waiting for me to call and confirm your address. You do NOT want to meet this man.
DO NOT insult my intelligence by saying you returned it. YOU HAVE NOT. the post office would have that on file, They do NOT. Also it has been nearly 6 days since you supposedly "returned" my money. It only takes 2-3 days to get here, Sara.(Priority Mail)
Thats it, just give me what is MINE.

In case anyone else has been ripped by this girl, her contact info is as follows:

Sara Perry
3008 Bert St. #406
Fort Worth Tx 76117
Phone Number- 1(817)834-9022
E-Mail- Orchid449@hotmail.com

Her home is actually in RICHLAND HILLES, a suburb of Fort Worth.

If anyone has any additional info or has dealt with this person before please e-mail me.
She also goes by "Mike Long" "mike" and probably numerous other aliases.
