Complaint filed by: Meow410@aol.com
I am reporting Louisa Stalnaker 807 B Street Lenoir City,
TN 37771 princessofmoon@webtv.net. I sent her my TBBear set for her Inch
and Zip beanies. We agreed to ship on the same day, June7, 1999. Also, her
references.....I do not have access to them anymore but I believe them to
all be accounts that she runs herself. After I shipped my TBBears, I waited,
and after about 10days I emailed her about the delay. She said she had been
very sick in the hospital, and was still sick, so she'd have someone mail
them for her on the next Friday (about 4 days away). Since then I have waited
and waited. I continue to email her about the delay but she doesn't respond
anymore. I warn everyone to BEWARE of her!

Response to cautionlist filed by: princessofmoon@webtv.net (g. k.)
I have been quite ill for awhile and have just gotten out of the hospital.
I had no way to contact anyone while I was there. I will email her in the
morning to let her know that zip and inch are on their way. My husband will
have to mail them since I am not able to get around yet. Louisa
July 20, 1999
The package was never returned to her. Except for the one email that she
resonded to she was not heard from again. When cautionlist emailed her back
because the beanies had still not arrived she had changed her email address.
Obviously this person set out to scam.

I found out to late that this person keeps your money. I have seen since
that she has several complaints and is on the bad traders list. Last I heard
from her she was going to send my money back + $5.00 for my trouble. Yeah,
right. But, I am not going to take it. I am going to her home town and to
the police and get some results. Her info that I have is: Name Louisa Stalnaker
in Lenoir City, Tenn 37771. Using chocolatemonkey@webtv.net. She has used
princessofmoon@webtv.net and also mimiscafe@webtv.net. BEWARE!!!
September 10, 1999
Update from: N513pe@aol.com
Yes, she finally sent my money back + the 5.00. But from the e-mail
I am getting, some people are out a lot more than I was. I would not trade
with her again. Plus she kept changing her email addresses and if you(bad
traders list) had not gotten involved she would never have sent anything
to me.
September 6, 1999
Response from: princessofmoon@webtv.net (g. k.)
Please be informed that the below mentioned individual in the forwarded
letter below, should have received her trade that I returned to her by now
and I have a tracking number to prove that it was sent. Please update my
information on the cautionlist. The other individual who had me down as a
bad trader has received his refund plus $5 for inconvenience. He received
that payment a few weeks ago,I also have proof of that. Thank you for updating
my file. Louisa

Hi. It was suggested to me by a fellow Ebay trader to contact you about
a bad trader I've experienced on >
sistance in resolving an ebay transaction where I sent the person $803.75 for 24 Osito Beanie Babies. I sent her this money in the form of a Postal Money Order on 6/1/99. She didn't send the merchandise for a long time and continued to make empty promises. Finally, I requested that she return my money, which she agreed to do but as of this date all I have received is empty promises and lies (after considerable time had passed I no longer wanted the merchandise since prices drop rapidly on beanie babies once they've been out a while and I would have lost my shirt on them). Recently, I received a couple of e-mails from other ebay users who had seen the negative feedback that I left for her and found out that she goes under various alias ID's on ebay and had attempted to rip off many of them as well. I think most have gotten there money back but most likely the amount was not as considerable as mine was. The contact information that I was given was the name of Mrs. David Key at 807 B Street, Lenoir City, TN 37771. Phone number of 423-986-9828. The Ebay ID she used with me was nanastoys@webtv.net. This is also her e-mail address which she has been responding too. Other Aliases that she has used in the past are chocolatemonkey@webtv.net, princessofmoon@webtv.net, serena18 and mimiscafe@webtv.net. She also goes by the name of Louisa Stalnaker.I have filed all the necessary Internet Fraud Reports but haven't gotten any response from them yet or any hope of receiving my money. Mrs. Key did send me an e-mail saying that I would have my money back by September 16 but today is the 17th and I still haven't received anthing. I don't believe anything she says since she has made promises in the past and never follows through.If there is anything you can do for me to help resolve this situation, I would be greatly appreciative. Kathy Strauss
Last week I posted a BAD TRADER ALERT on this site..her name is GAIL
KEY,(or that's the name she used with me). Since my posting, I have received
advice from other people who also had bad trades with her. I followed through
on this advice and now I would just like to let everyone know that Gail Key
did contact me. She did not have N.F.B.Teddy as originally promised, but
she offered to send buddies instead. Although I wasn't happy with this offer,
I did accept it because I figured something from her was better than nothing
at all. I did receive the buddies on 9/13 and they were in good condition.
I would never trade with her again, because she doesn't keep her promises
or her end of the trade. I have since learned that GAIL KEY has other email
addresses that she uses...(1)chocolatemonkey@webtv.com (2)mimicafe@webtv.com
(3)nanastoys@webtv.net (4) princessofmoon@webtv.net. She uses ebay user id
serenal8 and her refs there(the last time I checked), were good. This id
is probably the refs. she is still using..unless someone has caught up with
her. At ebay, under nanastoys@webtv.net..she has two complaints against her...one
complaint states that she ripped someone off for $800.00. Please beware of
GAIL KEY...807 B Street, Lenoir City, TN 37771. Also, I want to thank this
trading post for posting the message for me and I also want to thank the
people who emailed me with advice about retrieving something from BAD TRADER:
GAIL KEY.THANX TO ALL WHO HELPED ME!!! CONNIE

Gail Key is at it again. I sent her $390.00 for 12 1998 Teddies on September
22, 1999. She cashed the money orders and has not sent my items. She has
been in the hospital (so she says) but has posted feedback on people on the
24,25,29,1 and the 2. She say they were sent prioity they were suppose to
have a tracking number on them. But that was forgoten. Her car broke down
on the way to send back money to another victom. She has promised to mail
my refund on the 13th of October by Western Union. It wasn't there. Her phone
has been disconected. This transaction was on NoBidding she was using moondance
as her handle and moonracerx@webtv.net. Her name is

Reply on message board to above message.
I have dealt with Gail Key also as moondancer email address:
MoonRacerX@webtv.net. I sent her a money order for $55.00 for
beanies on 9/20/99. She admitted to recieving my money but always had excuses
for not sending them, like being in the hospital, etc. Was always going to
ship at a later date but the day never came. My money was sent to a Louise
Hammesfahr, Knoxville, Tn. 37932; aka Gail louise Key. She certainly should
be caught and prosecuted for extorting money out of innocent people. I will
help in anyway possible to do so. DO NOT SEND HER ANY MONEY!!! SHE IS A THIEF

I won my auction on June 2 and sent money order on June 4, 2000. She had
good feedback when I bid and about a week later she started getting lots
of negative feedback. I hadn't heard anything from her so I tried to email
her and check on my order. Her mailbox was always full so I couldn't contact
her. I started getting emails from other bidders saying she was ripping everyone
off. I managed to get a phone # for her so I started calling. She promised
she would send my item but I received nothing. She made all kinds of promises
to no avail. I finally contacted the detective who was trying to help everyone
get their money back. She sent me $5.00 on July 15 (she owed me 36.25) I
managed to get in touch with her by phone and said I was calling the detective
back and she finally send me the rest of my money by Western Union. Do not
ever bid on any of her auctions.You will have nothing but problems and lies
and empty promises!! She has apparently been doing this or a year now. SHE
HAS TO BE STOPPED!!!! She was selling under the name of iluvdinos, I sent
my money to Dinosaurworld, apparently there are several people involved in
this or else she has many, many different alias'.

I have another scammer to add to the list, I'm afraid. Here's what's happened:
Sunday, October 8, 2000, I reserved an auction on NoBidding.com after checking
the seller's feedback. She had 81, all positives but all were for purchases
but none for her as the seller. Her login name on NoBidding is mysticknight.
I reserved the auction, paid the seller through PayPal, and emailed the seller
with my shipping information and asked for their name and address for my
records. Nothing. I waited and still hadn't received my items, Black Batty
buddy and Ty Dyed Digger buddy. I didn't really need the Digger but
wanted another Black Batty buddy so I reserved it. I emailed the seller again
and she said she had been sick and would email me again that same afternoon.
That's the last I heard from her. The email was signed 'Chelsey.' The only
way I got her last name is from PayPal. It's 'Hammond.' Chelsey Hammond and
one of the (bad) feedback on NoBidding says she lives in Tennessee. If she
does, good. I can drive that far. I emailed her again on October 17, 2000
and asked for my items and when they were shipped. After I sent the email,
I went to the NoBidding.com site. Once an item is sold, the seller's login
name and email address is removed and 'Sold' banner is put in its place.
But I had made a copy of the description of the auction I reserved and also
printed a copy of the reservation page with the necessary information. I
checked the seller's listings to see if she had placed any more ads and there
had been some added on October 16, 2000 and all were sold. So I decided to
check her feedback again. She has been banned from NoBidding for deceptive
practices. I read several of the descriptions and there is another email
address for buyers to make their PayPal payments. The email address I had
that was on her ad was dragon-hunter43@webtv.net. The email address for sending
her PayPal payments is petesdragon43@hotmail.com. I have already alerted
NoBidding of my situation, alerted PayPal to the problem I have had, filed
a case with SquareTrade.com, written a letter to my credit card company
contesting this charge and why (to be mailed on October 18, 2000) and
written to the seller and given more than ample time to get me my items
or money. Now all I want is a refund. This isn't a game with me anymore.
I'm tired of spending my time chasing down deadbeats. My next step is law
enforcement. If anyone wants to write me and give me their information, I'll
be glad to compile a case file and turn it over to the proper authorities.
Thanks, Trudy, and the rest of the Caution List for all of your hard work.

I posted the attached last week and noticed that I needed to email also. I need help. :-( She has posted negative feedback on me for complaining about her lack of response and lack of action. I have still not gotten either the playstation 2 bid on in the auction or a tracking number (she said she'd ship on Feb. 17) or any contact regarding a refund (she posted on Yahoo! she would refund my money). She is not responding to any of my email to either address. I appreciate any help you can offer. I've filed complaints with PayPal and Yahoo! and which got reactions from her, but no real action.

I won an auction with this person on Yahoo and paid via paypal (two payments
since I didn't know I had to verify to send more than $250). Initially seller
never contacted me. I sent email and then posted negative feedback. Seller
retaliated and posted negative feedback on me. After making second payment
I sent email asking for a tracking number. Have heard nothing. Another user
claims this is the same person as Louise Shalkner aka TJ Toys. Some similarities
(webtv addresses, same first name, also from Lenoir City, TN). I'd appreciate

traders_name: Louise Stalnaker or Gail Key Comments: The above seller-has
not sent my item that I won on Yahoo on 2/11/01 item 49263515 Color Gameboy-Kiwi
with bonus wormlight. I should have trusted my instinct -in the description-the
seller only took Paypal payments-no exceptions. Louise contacted me soon
after the auction has ended informing me to pay for item with paypal and
I did so right away. At the time -she had a positive seller rating with no
negative feedback. After I paid for the item -I informed her to send the
item a.s.a.p. I did not hear back from her in several days. I sent another
e-mail asking her if I should be worried and she finally responded by saying
the item(s) are in the mail. I knew there was a problem when I did not receive
them today 02/21//01 and I looked at her current feedback rating to find
4 negatives against her. That is how I was informed of this website and all
her other scams that she has been doing. I have contacted her once more giving
her a chance to redeem herself but after looking at this site---I don't have
a chance in %^&*! I have also contacted Paypal to see if I can get my
credit card credited. After winning more than 50 auctions on E-bay--I never
thought I would get burnt-but it looks like I did. I am a stay at home mom
and money does not come easy. I purchased this item for my son's 5th birthday.
Someone please respond on what kind of recourse I have and the mess she has
put me in. Like I said-I should have trusted my first instinct. It would
be on Yahoo--pull up auction #49263515--the auction I won. It is listed under
her user id---foxy4my3 (I think that is it--then you will also see her e-mail
address which is shotzyblue@webtv.net I am not sure what is going to happen
with all this but-I hope we all put her out of commission. I also have the
# to the Lenoir City Police in TN where she lives if you need it. Someone
put it in her feedback profile along with the traderlist.com website
which is the first I have heard of it. Goodluck in whatever you are
trying to do. Ronda

On 6-17-99, I was the second-high bidder on Gail Key's eBay Auction #116880249
- Holiday Beanies. Gail Key approached me via Email on 6-19-99, with an offer
to buy her beanies, & I mailed her a money order in the sum of $508.25
on 6-30-99. After a couple of weeks, I got an Email from her husband David
that she was in the hospital. Gail Key did not send me the beanies or return
my money. After much Email communication with Gail and her husband David
(excuses, promises, delays, lies about my money being in the mail to me,
& unreturned telephone messages, Gail has still not returned my money.
I mailed Ms. Key a Demand for Payment letter, Certified Mail, 10-13-99, and
also filed a Mail Fraud Claim with the USPS - they did nothing for one full
year until I requested my paperwork back, then they sent Ms. Key a letter,
and me a copy with a note that they had not received any other complaints
against Gail Key! The Postal Inspector did not believe he would be able to
take any law enforcement action to compel Ms. Key to satisfy my complaint.
So much for the USPS. My last Email from Ms. Key was in Feb., 2001 from
princessofmoon@webtv.net. I tried Emailing her at that address today, and
the Mail Administrator returned my Email as undeliverable at that address.
I'm going to call Detective Sartin at the Lenoir City, TN Police Dept. tomorrow.
Any help from Traderlist.com or anyone else who has been scammed by this
woman would be appreciated. What is the Statute of Limitations on Grand Theft?
Does anyone know? Thanks.

Complaint filed by: jeancole@home.com (Jean Cole)
She cheated me out of $508.25 almost two years ago on an eBay auction,
and I have almost given up ever seeing any of my money again. That "lady"
is something else - why hasn't she been put in jail yet?? I have printed
documentation of the auction, Email correspondence, my Demand for Payment
letter, the Mail Fraud Complaint I filed with the USPS a year ago, etc. Can
you help me get any of my money back? Thanks for any help you can give me.
My last Email correspondence with Ms. Key was in February, 2001, but now
I don't have a good address for her. I talked to Detective Sartin Tuesday,
6-26-01, and he told me he had Gail in jail, but she is now out on bond.
He said she took one lady for $5,000, and that woman is coming to TN to press
charges. He will then take Gail before a Grand Jury for an indictment. He
said after Court costs and fines are paid that maybe all the rest of us who
haven't gotten paid can file a Civil Class action against Gail Key. Gail
cashed my money order July 7, 1999 - two (2) years ago THIS July 7th. I NEED
TO KNOW how long the Statutes of Limitations run on this type of Grand Theft,
and, if it is 2 years, I need to immediately file a Small Claims case against
Gail Key to get a default judgment against her and protect the $508.25 she
owes me. Do you have access to this information? I understand she and her
husband, David, do own a home. Thanks for any help you can give me - I only
wish I'd found your site sooner, as it looks like you helped at least 159
people get their money back from this woman. Toni Jean Cole

these problem-infested emails for a month, I realized I wasn't getting anywhere
and that I should file complaints against her to stop her from scamming other
unsuspecting people like myself.
Was winner on two auction on Yahoo. Requested the money via PayPal, but
never received merchandise. Bid on GameCube and X-Box bundle - total loss
of $927.09. Beware of low priced buy it now items from this
seller.

Purchased and paid for 3 Land Before Time Videos from her on November
15, 2001. Was told numerous times they are on the way but as of today, December
19, 2001 I still do not have the videos. I have requested a refund from her
a few times and she promised one would be here today. It isn't and I am going
to re-report her to Det. Houston with the Loudon County Sheriff's
Office.

Do not believe a word this woman tells you, no matter what she says. She
is a professional thief who will say anything to delay shipping anything.
I've gotten promise after promise of shipment and still received NOTHING!

Paid $175.50 for a Playstation 2 auction that I won on 11/16. Have been
promised delivery numerous times, and seller has never come through on a
single deadline. Many other buyers are in the same boat. My last contact
with her was nearly two weeks ago. Seller has taken advantage of our willingness
to accept her excuses, and I hope she either makes good on her contracts
or is brought to justice.

This woman is a THIEF and a FRAUD. I paid $175.50 for a playstation2 that
I never received. I am just one of many others on Yahoo Auctions who got
ripped off by this woman. The total amount she scammed for the month of
November,2001 was about $21,000. BEWARE!

Defrauded by this person on Yahoo Auctions. Purchased Gameboy Color and
paid through Paypal, nice at first and then nothing, no e-mails, no product.
She is obviously a pro at this. Lots of promises after receiving new e-mail
address. Like others have reported to police, FBI, USPS, Internet Fraud,
BEWARE OF THIS INDIVIDUAL!!!!!! Since 1998!!!!! What does it take to get
this woman locked up!!!!!!!!

(was babybluetoys@yahoo.com, now closed) Gail "Crystal" Key of either P. O. Box 765, Lenoir City, TN 37771 OR
2252 Crock Rd, Lenoir City, TN 37771 OR
OR 807 B Street, Lenoir City, TN 37771
OR STE #1, 11130 Kingston Pike, Knoxville TN 37922 (take your pick she has used them all) posted auctions on Yahoo, in October-December 2001, defrauding hundreds of people out of tens of thousands of dollars. We have been keeping a running log of how this person has been getting away with all this crime and it is horrible! I personally "won" an auction with BuyNow for a Gameboy Color on 11/24/01 and paid via Paypal, electronic transfer, the same day (minutes later). I have heard a couple of times from Crystal, also calling herself Arthur Wiggins, the person she had set up the Paypal account for her, and she promised my merchandise again and again. Now there has been no contact and I have received no merchandise nor refund. We have reported her to the Loudon County Sheriff's Office (Lt. Houston), the Lenoir City Police Department (Det. Sarten), the FBI, Yahoo, Paypal, and several other authorites and news media. The case falls under Lenoir City and Det. Sarten has taken over the case from Lt. Houston. To date, 12/19/01, I have not personally heard from Det. Sarten, nor have I had an email from the Seller since her promise on 12/08/01 to send the merchandise. Last word to our "support group" was today (12/19/01) from Lt. Houston who told us we will not recover our money because Seller spent it and we would have to come to court in TN to procecute her.
*Note from mediator. It is important to file
the online FBI Consumer Fraud Form at www.ifccfbi.gov, and the online Federal
Postal Fraud Form #8165. If the local officials won't help, the federal officials
will. The Tennessee Attorney General may also be helpful.
