(27) Stingray (freshwater), Dasyatidae Family (All species).
Potamotrygons species are legal in the state of Utah........Dasyatidae are a Salt/Brackish which is sometimes found in Rivers, but do not do well in fresh waters.

Sorry to hear you got scammed.
 
why doesnt someone just call the police in his home town and file a report, If all you guys collaborated and told your story, this guy wouldn't be laughing at you guys, he has scammed you all you know his name, do something about it.

Found this about him two, he's scammed more people on another forum, sounds like this guy needs to be arrested

Yes, it IS a shame and, yes, he IS a con artist!!!
His PayPal & e-mail are set up under the name John Cowling, but somehow Anbu found out his REAL name is Landon Jacob Cowling of Texarkana, Texas and NOT Oklahoma like he claimed here. :(
I called my bank today, but they can't do anything since I DID authorize the transaction. Well, I COULD put a stop payment on it, but that would cost more than the $22.00!!! :( Hopefully, PayPal will refund the money.
I am SUPER glad he is banned!!!
HOPE we get our money back & will keep all informed.

The reason these people thrive is because they do not think anyone will do anything about it and they are usually right. If it were me, just getting my money back wouldn't be enough. They are okay with losing out on a scam. Prepare all of this evidence in document form and talk to the local police in his area. If they shrug you off then try the county sheriff. Take the name and badge number of anyone who isn't helpful and keep going up the law enforcement food chain until you reach the DA's office. If they try to tell you it is a federal issue because of state borders then contact the US Marshals closest to him -- every state has several of these.

The amount of money involved in these scams is enough to warrant serious charges against him. I've seen people on different forums successfully get the police involved over trivial trading card scams between state lines, for much less value lost. When you bump it up to hundreds and thousands of dollars for fake fish sales, it is bound to get someone interested.
 
fishman504 sorry you didnt know about nate.he's got a real shady reputation to say the least.ripped many people off.
josh, not much fun to pay for ssomething and not get what you paid for huh?

You got exactly what was described to you when i sold the mobas and you can ask anyone here wild mobas do not have perfect same amount of bars that is just ridiculous To think that as for the big male that had his eye hurt after the fact that you bought them and i was holding to ship i even offered you a refund on him and another thing i offer live arrival gurentee on them and not one die not one and also on top of the mobas will get stressed out and will get cloudy eye and then it will go away so your snide remark is needed either i felt like a was very open to your suggestions about the big male moba and even offered a refund that you refused thanks !! and to top it all off you got 1200 dollars worth of mobas for 700?? so who really lost out
