Greetings,
Thank you for pointing this out to me Frank! My apology to Mr. Todd
Parker for my error. I thought I had read on the list his name. I'll
have to re-read and see if it sounded like he was being accused and why
I jotted his name down.
To attempt to set things straight, Todd Parker is NOT associated with
any scams and is an honorable dealer in specimens.

Quoting Frank Cressy <[email protected]>:
Hello All,
Dave Gheesling can't post to the list at the moment, but given the
seriousness
of the accusation made against Todd Parker, he asked that I post this on his
behalf:
His message follows: Hello List,
While I haven't seen where Todd Parker's name was mentioned as a "possible
scammer" other than in Al Mitterling's recent post (I haven't been closely
following the thread), TODD PARKER MOST ASSUREDLY IS NOT A SCAMMER OR
ANYTHING
OF THE SORT. To the contrary, Todd is probably one of the finest people I've
had the pleasure of knowing -- inside or outside of the meteorite
community. Presumably this mention has something to do with the
recent Mifflin thread, but
Todd's name shouldn't be associated with anything other than
integrity -- he is
a class act, to be sure.
All the best,
Dave -------- Original Message --------

Hi Al,
You made a mistake listing Todd Parker as a scammer. He was mentioned as
selling Whetstone Mountains that were definitely real.

Hi Gary, Greg H., Chris and all,
Two names have come up recently as scammers. Joel Samson and Todd Parker. We
also know of another guy from the Chicago area that is a fraud. What I would
like to see is a list of people and companies that are known to be selling
fakes, mis-representing material and so forth. I am not talking about
someone who has made a mistake.
In order to qualify, the person or company in question would have to have
evidence that would support their efforts to be purposely doing something
wrong. I wouldn't want a witch hunt or dealers who don't like other dealers,
trying to put people on this list. I know this is probably going to open a
can of worms BUT it is important to know suspect con artists, frauds and
people and companies who are just not getting the fact we don't like our
collections messed up.
Does a list already exist? If not it sure would be nice to have one that
could be shared with the collecting community from time to time. Other input
appreciated.

I've asked the administrator of the Meteorites group on Facebook to remove
this person from the group. Hopefully this will put a damper on his
shenanigans, but probably nothing short of legal action will make him
cease and desist.
