Right, in our quest to elimate Scammers & Spammers from the classifieds we have introduced Photo Warnings, see below.

Anyone genuine scammers, ie those selling animals that don't exsist (eg albino ball pythons for $500) will have the following pictures added to their adverts




Or





Please feel free to post on HERE any suspect scammers.

Just remember though, this is for genuine scammers, not just people selling poor quality etc


We also have the following picture for the dreaded Spammers, the spammers are those that keep posting the same (or slightly modified) adverts, desperately trying to sell them animals. This of course pushing everyone else's adverts to the next page each time.

If you really want your advert to stand out, ADD an image (two ways, one by the add image box, second by putting an image URL in the following code <img src="THEN THE ADDRESS OF PHOTO"> that will put a larger photo.

Also, a tip...place your advert first thing in the morning or at around 6pm, these are the two times that get the most viewers

All Spammers will now have their advert editted to include the following photo


Obviously I can't spot EVERY spammer or scammer but I'll try my hardest with the time I have available

Also, if any of you guys feel the urge to design some other scammer / spammer photos we can use, then feel free to post them on this thread...keep them clean though
