I've been entertaining the folks at JUNO REPTIFISHA KONGO, you may have seen the ad's by "Clara" They sent me their list of reptiles and of course there were species that anyone would like to have, so I placed and order. They said up-front that I did not have to pay till one week after the reptiles were delivered, so no big deal, no risk to me, I went for it. Well right on cue, the day they were going to ship they emailed me saying that the Airline would not take a collect shipment. One would think if they were a legit business they would know this ahead of time and have the funds to pre-pay. They asked me for the shipping funds up-front so they could ship my snakes, nearly $800. I told them I would not send them any money but if they had the Airlines USA office call me I would give them a credit card to cover the shipping costs in advance. That was the last I heard from them.
So people, if you see an add by these folks and send them money,don't go whining to Chris, Karl, or me about it. I think think this should be a sufficient example to avoid them.
Cheers!
Al

LOL, so Clara is back again !
You have to give her credit for persistence.
She probably figures that there is a whole new crop of folks here for her to scam, and, if folks here do send her money for deals that seem to be too good to be true, she is probably right.
Best Regards
