Here's what I posted in another one of his threads....
I am fairly certain this is the scammer AROBALLER28, Silverladys, etc... and I'm fairly certain this is Landon Jake Cowling. There are many similarities between all his threads including how he lists his phone number with no dashes, etc. He has been scamming web hosting companies for years (since at least 2004) and has also scammed reptile forums and other fish forums and who knows what else. I sent AROBALLER28 $220 for the arapaima and the day he was supposed to ship out he emailed me saying that the weather was too bad for the airplanes. I basically knew it was him by reading the threads, but I was going to give him until that day (Friday). I used PayPal and should be receiving my money within the next few days... first time I've filed a claim, so we'll see. This guy sounds extremely genuine on the phone and will even throw in extras for free... he'll also come back and ask you to buy more and more with even better deals. He's been perfecting his scams for years, but still sucks at it.... AND I FELL FOR IT. I failed to check out the "Join Date" and google the pictures in his threads. They were all from google images. If you call the phone numbers that he posts it will likely go to a woman messaging service that is common for disposable cell phones. You won't be able to leave a message, she will end the call.
In the future, make sure that the seller has good feedback and has had numerous posts and has not joined recently. If you still want to pursue the deal, make sure he sends you pictures with a written message in the pic. Hope this helps everyone.
AND, to Landon, Jake, Jacob, Cowling... you are a $#^&* lowlife. I wish I met you in person. From what I've research on you, you were in the military and dishonorably discharged.... probably for being a lazy B#%^CH and trying to steal others hardearned money and other items. Get a real job you ***.
Keep an eye out for each other MFK! I had many people helping me out!!! THANKS!!!!!!!!!

He'll probably just start posting from someone else's computer. It is POS like him that give those of us in the military a bad name.
Yes you posted this in another thread. You assumed, along with the rest of the witchhunt that the poor kid is a scammer. Maybe a little research next time instead of just running with all the other assumers
Great way to welcome a 17 y.o. new member

He's posting the same stuff over on "that other fish forum," too, and others have decided that he is a scammer as well. Using other people's pictures as your own when trying to sell something as well as offering unreal deals, lame excuses, and stuff like that is a pretty good indicator of a scammer.
your talking out of your
I apologize if I made a reference to you by accident; I meant to refer to this aroballer28 guy.
