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 There, Am glenn by name, I saw your ad to sell this dog so i decided to contact you to know its availability and present condition.Moreso, i will like to know its final price excluding shipping charges because it will be picked up personally by a private Shipping company after payment.
The Shipper will be the one to do the check up and the pickup as soon as you recieve payment.But if the shipper sees there is any kind of misrepresentation in the item in question, is our money refundable? I would want you to send me your full name,contact address and phone number so that a certified cheque for the payment can be mailed to you immediately.You can get intouch with me on my private email address dmcglenn@yahoo.com, I hope to hear from you as soon as possible so that we can conclude this transaction .
Regards, Glenn |
