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. |

Hello, Compliments of the day to you it might interest you to know that your pet for sale is glady acknowledged by my client and willing to buy while payments would be made available through a certified cashier's check or money order i also want you to clearly state the last price of your ad for sale once arrangments have been reached, payment would be made at once and i also want to know if the pet for sale is in perfect condition.So get back to me with other neccesary details in earnest. Thanks and have a nice day. Regards...
