Complaint filed by:
Bandajrbanda@aol.com
I enter a trade agreement on April 27th with a Samantha Konet from Plant
City, Florida. And in the agreement my end of the trade was my Flag Nose
Piñata Bear, Sparks Bear, Ideation Blue Star Bear and UK Jack Bear
for her ebay Bidder Bear and Ferny Bear. I have the emails saved if you need
them.
I mailed them off on April 28th with a USPS Delivery Confirmation number of 0302 1790 0000 3226 4836 I checked the USPS web site and they were delivered. When I emailed her a few days later about my USPS Delivery Confirmation number she email me back and said that she was going to find it and get back to me. That was the last that I heard from her. And that was on the 30th of April.
Her email address is ToxicLover@tampabay.rr.com
And her mailing address is:
Samantha Konet
4726 S. Dawnmeadow Ct.
Plant City, FL. 33566
Please let me know if you which me to forward you some or all of the saved emails or any other information that will help, okay?
thanks, Robert

Comments: Samantha Konet from Plant City, FL. is not a trader you can
trust. I sent her 6 bears, with Delivery Confirmation which she received.
She hasn't sent her end of the trade and she will not respond to any emails
I have sent her. Also know of many others that she has done the same thing
to. Please use caution.

I did receive 6 Sherbets from Samantha today. 4 of them have the tag protectors changed to the slip on protectors which I don't use and one tag protector has a sticky residue on it where apparently someone had a price tag on it. Also, the yellow Sherbet is Canadian tagged which I didn't send to her. My were all regular tush tags as I purchased them from my retailer in the US.
Thanks for your help.

Update:
Hello,
I emailed you (or maybe Trudy) a few weeks back with all my info on a trade I had with "toxiclover" or Samantha Konet. I sent Hot Pink Decade and received nothing in return. I read your notes saying that she has been sending money/beanies back to some select people. Well, I have sent her many, many emails stating that I contacted you and she said she would send the beanie back. That was three weeks ago and still no beanie. I am still sending emails but to no avail. Can you please help?? She will not reply to any of my emails. I just want my HP Decade back. Any help with this so-called trader would be very appreciated. I don't know what else to do. It is only one beanie but that's not the point. I also see she has been using "HoneyKisses" as well. Wish there was something more I could do to get rid of this person. She was not on the Traderlist when I traded with her, at least no under ToxicLover.
Please let me know what can be done.
Thank you very much,
Tom Leslie

Subject: Help?
I saw your post on the BBOF and it appears that I am Samantha's latest victim. Do you know if you have to wait a certain number of days before you can file mail fraud charges against a person. I know from delivery confirmation that she received the beanies from me yesterday, but she will not answer any emails that I have sent to her since Tuesday. I know that she told me that she started a new job and maybe that is why she is behind. I did not see her name on the bad trader list. Is there a reason for that? Is this all relatively new? Any help or suggestions will be appreciated. This was the trade that we agreed to--
Your Mom-e 02, I Love New York, Dippy, and Bidder for my Comet, 03 Signature, Blessed, Dreamer, Cand-e, Dad-e 03.
Mine are the bold printed ones, i.e. the ones that I sent to her.
Thanks,

Just wanted to let you know that she did send my beanies back today. It just
makes me so mad that I had to pay $8 to send beanies to her and get nothing
in return but the same beanies that I sent to her.

At the time of the trade she was under honeykisses and I understand that

have requested them back 3 times and have not gotten a response at all. They
are as follows. ALMOND, AMERICA (RED), AMERICA (WHITE), AMERICA (BLUE), ARUBA,

my beanies that they were going out of town for a week i would have never
made the deal to trade with them.they lied so much i do not beleive any thing

I notice that your site says you are in the process of creating a bad trader page for Samantha from Florida but I wanted to tell you that this person has a page on your site already under Nicole Veguilla from Green Acres, Florida. http://www.traderlist.com/NicoleVeguilla.html
I had a recent trade with her and basically had to threaten to send the police to her house in order to get my beanies. They arrived about a week late but fortunately I received them. Since the bad posts have started she has been sending emails to the people she completed trades with to ask them to leave her good feedback. I have noticed that she has burned a lot of people on the BBOT lately so I decided to send this email. She never posts on the BBOT herself but she will respond to other's posts.

Hi Pat. I just wanted to let you know that yesterday I received all of
my 31 beanies back from Samantha Konet. They are all accounted for and are
in the same condition as I sent them. I will be posting this info on the
bbot as well. I want to thank you for all of your hard work and intervention.
I truly believe that without you mediating the situation she would never
have sent my beanies back. If there is anything that I can do for you please
let me know. I have a huge list of beanies, all retired commons, and I could
send you one if you collect beanies. Please let me know if you have a want
list. Thank you again for all of your help!

I checked your list & could not find her, however the trade was prior to all the postings from other people with bad trades with her. Now, I regret to inform you, I think I've been "conned" by her as well. A girl by the name of Samantha or Sarah will not send me her beanies. I sent her 2 mwmt Champion beanie babies, Belgium & Portugal. She was to mail me Amigo & Cupid on the same day. I sent hers with delivery confirmation, which she received on May 10th (per USPS).
Here is the timeline of what happened:
5/14/04 - She emailed me an explanation as to all the problems on the boards & that she would email me the delivery conf # of my package. She also stated she doesn't know why she put her name down as "Sarah", instead of Samantha.
5/13/04 - She promised to mail out Amigo & Cupid beanies to me on 5/17/04 with del conf #. I told her I just saw posts on her as bad trader & she said just misunderstandings & she's mailed them all back. I offered to help post good ref if she followed through with trade.
5/12/04 - I emailed to ask if she found the missing beanies she said she had to mail to me. She emailed she found them & will mail them out right away to me.
5/10/04 - She said she has Cupid, but can't find Amigo. She asked me to pick from others she had. I said my boys don't need others & to mail my beanies back, or send me a money order to cover Champions I sent her. She will continue to look, asked me to contact her in another 2 days.
5/09/04 - She "regrets" to inform me she hasn't mailed out beanies yet.
5/05/04 - We agreed to trade my 2 Champions (Belgium & Portugal) for her 2 dog beanies, Amigo & Cupid. Both were to be mailed same day. My delivery conf on the pkg sent to her was: # 0300 1290 0003 5366 1175 (which was delivered on 5/10/04).
The info she gave me was:
Sarah Konet
4726 S Dawnmeadow Ct
Plant City FL 33566
She asked how I knew where she was from, by her email (strange). Any suggestion on how to go about getting my beanies back from her, or the Amigo & Cupid she promised for my boys? The BBOT says to contact you & you will help get them back, I hope we can try..........thank you!!

Samantha,
Just wanted to let you know that I have filed a police report, here locally, in my city, and they in turn will notify your local police department to file a report for internet fraud/mail fraud in Plant City, FL. I also contacted the Postal Inspection Service in Miramar, FL, which will be conducting a investigation if I don't get a response from you from this email by Friday, July 9th. I have given them the following information & a timeline of our emails:
James & Susan Konet
Samantha/Sarah Konet
4726 S Dawnmeadow Ct
Plant City, FL 33566-1213
All names listed above are being listed in the police & postal fraud
reports.
I have been waiting for the Amigo & Cupid you promised to send on May
5, 2004, and have a receipt that my Belgium & Portugal beanies were received
by you on May 10, 2004. I also gave you an option as to mailing a money order
for $15/U.S. to a specific address, as I was out of the country (this was
my nearest relative).
You have not emailed me since May 24, 2004, the email listed below in which you again promised to get the beanies out to me, via your boyfriend. It is now July 6, 2004, and no beanies or money order have been received at either of my addresses provided. I have also been receiving at least 2 other responses each week, to my email address, from others that have been scammed by you. I am advising them to follow the prosecution process, if needed, as well....
Please advise how you wish me to proceed, if I receive no response, I
will begin the further process to file authorization to prosecute to the
U.S. Postal Service Inspector & local charges with your local legal system.

this was from May 4, 2004. I filed a complaint with IFCC but have not heard

Thanks Pat for trying to help. I sent Samantha China, Color Me Beanie, Secret,
Tradee, Clubby III, Clubby V, Decade (Lt. Blue & Drk. Pink) on 05/03/04.
She received the beanies on 05/10/04 as confirmed w/ postal
confirm#03033430000078542626. She was to send Bearon(brown), Fizz, William(open
& closed), Liberty(blue face), Nipponia, Pierre, and England.They have
never arrived.
Samantha first claimed she mailed the beanies, then she said her boyfirend
mailed them. I gave her the benefit of the doubt, but without the confirm
# there is nothing I can do and of course she claims she emailed me the
number(NOT) and that she threw the # away. I explained to her they never
arrived, and I never got a number. She basically said tough luck she was
not sendig my beanies back and that they were "lost" in the mail so I'm just
out. I explained that if she had the confirm number then I could research
the package but she says she doesn't have it anymore. Pat this has been a
bad experience for me. I have filed a complaint with the IFCC,
complaint#I04052018239987. I have also received at least 4 emails from others
that have had problems with her trades and I have advised them to post their
complaints on this site and follow the instructions. I hope that this situation
can be resolved.My next step is to contact the Hillsborough Police dept.
in Tampa Florida and file a report of fraud with them. Thank you so much
for having this site and take great care of yourself and your family.-Lisa

Hello. I made a trade with Honey Bristow known as Honey Kisses on the
BBOT. Right after we agreed to the trade and I mailed out my end, I went
back to read the BBOT. That is when I found out that she was actually Samantha
from Plant City, Florida, she had admitted it on the board. I originally
looked on the traderlist by her e-mail, which she has been e-mailing me with
HoneyKisses@tampabay.rr.com. This email address was not one of the ones that
everyone was talking about on the board. Needless to say, I emailed out Priority
with delivery confirmation on May 7th. She supposedly sent out 1st class,
on the same day but could not afford delivery confirmation. Our agreement
was to send out 1st class but when I got to the post office they said that
my box was to heavy for 1st class and needed to go priority. That should
have been the same case for her. I am still waiting on her box, as she has
already recieved mine and I have asked her to send back my share of the trade
but she will not answer my e-mails now. Please help me. I have always had
good trades on the board and now this one, which has a lot involved.
Nothing has now been heard from Samantha Konet. No packages have been received,
no money orders, no original beanies returned. I have her telephone number
(parents James & Susan Konet
I also have the telephone number of their local police dept (813) 757-9200.
What do you advise me to do now...?

No luck, so I've sent this message to Samantha/Sarah (whichever name she is).
I have all her info, & info/numbers of other places I've contacted & am going to contact if I don't hear from her. I did not hear from her since you emailed her last on 5/27/04.
