Now it's up to 23 scam listings here,43 international ones and they even have coloured ones now,
One has grown to 4 scam listings for these,(not as believable?),
Still close to 400 of these scam listings,
You would think that after being reported for over two years that they must realize that they are a
laughing stock in gardening forums,
A number of other scam listings are still available in the Rose category,

That's because the sticky tape is real.
The Big Banana,the Rainbow rose seeds,the Black and Blue Rose seeds,the Blue and some other
Strawberry seeds,the Purple Tomatoes and various other scam listings are not real,(they can not and do
not exist),
Most are photo shopped and some buyers have even been sent weed seeds,

It's just got out of hand. Too many scammers even aussie ones. I asked a scammer the other day if the pictures were from their own plant (Which I doubted) and they answered yes. So I then asked if they could take a picture of it now with a coke can, bottle of water or jar of vegemite just something recognizable so I could see the size of it. LOL never heard back from them. Obviously they don't eat or drink and couldn't fulfill my request.
There are even photos out there now where they have put the Rainbow Roses in pots and in a field of Roses
to try and make buyers bleieve that they are real,
A scammer has no conscience as to them it's all about getting the money,(any way they can),

I can also tell you they have moved on to Frangipani, Hippeastrum and Lycoris bulbs too.

It's another monster created by online selling sites including this one and they who don't care if a member gets
scammed as long as they can collect the selling fees,

I suppose you have to admire their imagination.

Tazz, I don't believe the Bolivian Rainbow Chili seeds should be a target.
I don't know about Bolivian, but I have grown rainbow chilis for years....they were called Ornamental chilis many years ago.

I think the rainbow chillies I had were sold as Thai chillies. Got 'em from Bunnings. The ones I had were edible.
