SCAM!
Posted: 28/08/2012 by Pet mad!

I payed £100 for a leopard tortoise on this website (stupidly not researching on this website). The tortoise hasn't been delivered and no reply to any of my emails. Very annoyed.

I also got scammed form that website, Credit card gave me my money back, dont know how the site can continue to run, because it is happening to a lot of people. I did advise about this site a couple of months back.

As David said I really would contact the police, it is fraud. I'll pass the matter onto a contact we have.

Kindest Regards

Have you had anyone complain about a website called Blatfarm? They are also selling tortoises on various websites very cheap. Did a search for this so called UK website and it is registered in the USA?
