The subject was Albino Balls and eggs:
My two replies:
I guess we are educating them on how to care for ball pythons now.This of course will make them sound more legite to the newbies and they will get ripped off

Re: Another craigslist ad .......
Not to mention that little care info they guy sent. It sounds like it came right off of a ball python care sheet online. He probably just copied and pasted the thing right into the email. You can tell its not written by the same person due to grammar and capitalization.

So if a newbie sees that ad and does not know any better that makes them stupid and they deserve to be ripped off .

Why are they buying something they know nothing about?
After contacting this person about purchasing one of these snakes (they know nothing about) it should become very clear it's a scam as all responses from this/these individuals should be a dead give-away it is a scam. Because it will be no different than any other internet scam in history.
I should feel sorry for the people who get scammed by the Nigerian General? It's the same stupid scams over and over, if someone is too stupid to figure this out then yes they are indeed stupid. It's called calling a spade a spade...
Roll your eyes all you want...

"I will adopt any piebald ball pythons or clown ball pythons."
Really......
