The
below is from a Scammer! Some of the emails
may not look like scams, but they all lead to the same
thing. The scammer will pay by check (cashier's check/money
order) for more then the pet is worth, then they will
ask you to send them back the difference in money. A
couple weeks later you find out the check was fake and
the bank will take it out of your account. This scam
can be set up several ways.
Some
key points for pointing out a scammer:
1. Doesn't care much about the pet, just the transaction.
2. Says they will use their own shipper.
3. 95% of the scammers are from overseas (Nigeria, Israel, South Africa)
4. Pays you more then the pet is worth, then asks for the difference in money back. |

Good day, My name is Sandra Williams Base in Texas,I have a client that is interested in buying your Pet,he informed me that the payment will be remmited via US POSTAL MONEY ORDER issued in United State.Is the price you listed for the Pet firm? or what is the actual last price? In order to conclude the deal as soon as possible,the Money Order that will be sent to you will include the money for the sales of your pet and the shippers fees for organising a home pick up service. You do not need to worry as my shipper who normally picks fragile item(s) and in most cases pets with duty of care,and to assure you that your pet is going to a good home. What I want to clarify is that will you be able to send the shipping charges to the shipping agent through Western Union Money Transfer method as soon as you get and cashed the Payment and you deduct the money for the sales of your pet?If you agree to assist in this capacity,Kindly send your full name,your address and phone number,for the payment to be issued and sent to your address. Regards Sandra Williams |
