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 , I am very much interested in purchasing this puppy for myself as am traveling outside the state so i really want the puppy for myself, so that can always keep my company and would like to know if its still available for sale.......I am quite OK with the puppy and would like to go ahead with the purchase if its still available.I can make payment with either a cashier's check or money order so please do let me know if that's OK with you, and what is the final asking price? and i will also like you tell me briefly the general character of the puppy. I would have the puppy picked up after payment has being received and cleared .Please do get back to me as soon as possible. Expecting your reply and oblige.
