Forbidden Genetics

[Cornbreadmky]

It is actually someone’s business. Yours.

If you are handling customer service poorly, and often even if you are not, people will get upset. My instinct, based on experience, is that your communication faltered because you had a supply problem you were scrambling to solve, and threads like this are part of the price you had to pay for that. I could be wrong, but I am not new at life, I have been on both sides of those sort of things more than once.

I appreciate that you had the guts to reply directly, but I feel like your reply is unprofessional, frankly. Best wishes, and fight the good fight. I give no fucks about this situation, except that I am both a business owner and a consumer, one who cares about the ethics and practices on both sides.

Very unprofessional and quite frankly I'm still positive it's a scam backed up on orders or not people waiting 6 months is flat out unacceptable. And a refund should be given if your not gonna take care of the orders. My lesson was learned the hard way and I will only go through someone who's been in business for 10 years+.

Hey everyone...I just wanted to share some info as I found this thread while also waiting for Hunter to send me some clones (I found his other account on Instagram). I was starting to get REAL worried after not receiving them when I was supposed to (and then felt pretty dumb after reading all of this as I thought for sure I was gonna get burned) but I can officially say that I did just receive my order of clones that were ordered from him. It wasn't exactly in the most professional packaging and I've yet to grow the plants out yet to verify genetics but I wanted to at least provide some additional info. Again, this was not ordered from Forbidden Genetics but rather from Hunter directly (which sounds like it's basically the same thing)

I'm a firm believer is paying it forward so I am more than happy to send out clones to peeps as well.

Yeah, i honestly didn't expect him to even come through with my order as I kinda wrote it off after seeing these posts but in a last ditch attempt, I told him that I would likely buy 50-100 more clones from him if I were to receive my order of 10. Low and behold, a month later I got the clones. I of course had NO intension on sending out another dime to him but that comment can sometimes flush out the greed in some people. Sounds like this was likely the case.

Sounds like a selective scammer. This kind of thing is typical in the bodybuilding world. The scammer fulfills orders for customers that he believes are well connected/well known in the game and or on internet forums.

Then people he thinks are not very well known he just steals their money.

Well said ralphboss and good point. I hate it when I hear about people getting scammed. It happened to me a few times in the past and it leaves you feeling jaded about the process. Clones, seeds and strains were meant to be shared we just have a few greedy f^&ks out there that want to ruin it for everyone.

I own a licensed cultivation in Colorado, I'm well known in the industry, a cannabis cup winner and I've spent a solid 8k on seeds this year alone on Instagram. There are lots of reputable breeders and seed banks on there and it's one if the best places to get the newest and hottest genetics. However, this fuckhole is a total scammer. Got me for $150, no biggie really. I'm going to now spend as much as it takes on a pi to find him to prove a point about scamming people who will fuck you up. If anyone has any more info on this guy feel free to send me a pm. Or email. Josh@theherbanbuffalo.com

He went ghost after apparently getting raided in 2021(he would promise ppl to grow their rare strain in exchange for a split in harvest.) but he actually just wanted their Hawaii growers license (329 card). Scammed me and few out of that. Born n raised here in big island, trying to figure out a way to catch this mf. He’s based out of oahu in Waianae and moved out of Portland 3 years ago before covid. He owes my buddy some clones. Sent me the same run around. Out 400 bucks. He got me on forbidden and my friend on gem.genetics. Karma is real.
