    I've read so many horror stories about online transactions/people having their work stolen. I think I'll just stick to things in person.

    With the right tools it's really easy to track someone down even if they are using a proxy. The alternative a lot of sites use is to just not allow proxies. No real reason to be using it unless you're up to no good.

    Scammer alert!

    Attention.. This scammer is also operating under these name on FB.. You can find the pages easily. The same number is being used, stolen photos from other breeders, and the same post about a funeral is also being used.

    Adoptis Reptiles.
    David Scott.
    Rudri Reptiles.
    Time reptiles.
    Constructors Unlimited.
    Collins Weaver.

    I've noticed that some of my friends on my friends are on some of this persons friends lists on these FB pages... Please check your friends lists. Do not support a scammer.

    I think we should just all call this number at random times of the day and annoy them and maybe they'll stop. Call them and when they answer say something stupid then hang up. I bet if they had hundreds of calls a day like this they'd eventually stop with that phone number. In the meantime everybody should report it to facebook that it's a fake person.

    It appears to be the same person

    Using the alias jasonpestermana which was previously used by colinss weaver jasonpestermana@yahoo.com

    And of course using the same pics as well.
