so his wife used to take care of them...and the puppies are 11 and 12 weeks...so they probably had them for 3 - 4 weeks which means that his wife passed in the past week or so. he doesnt sound too upset about it. and in the earlier add he said they were neutered. i hope to hell there isnt a vet that neuters a 3 pound 11 week old pup!

sad that scammers can advertize on petfinder. i always thought it was for adoptions and was monitored somehow....

Here are the red flags..

1. Poor english (probably out of the country..Nigerian scammer)
2. AKC reg. and they are from Canada..probably they have this posted all over the place and have put that in the ad because they see that is what people are looking for..but if they are from toronto they would most likely be CKC reg.
3. Brindle colouring?? Yorkies are black and tan..not brindle..they probably scam with other breeds too
4. Selling due to moving (they will probably tell you they have already left the country to do missionary work and will ship the puppies to you..they WONT!!
5. They say they will "deliver" please dont fall for this..they will deliver nothing but heartache after you mail them money..and you wait at the airport for dogs that never existed in the first place.

I emailed this person too...I can almost guarentee she/he will tell me the things I have just told you..Ill post their reply as soon as I get it..

Dawn

This ad looks very much like one I found on Kijiji a few weeks ago... Especially how the dogs name is Hailey cause when I inquired the person on Kijiji why they were selling the dogs for so cheap she sent me a picture of a dog that was supposed to be name Katie, but the photo was titled "Hailey"???
And they were from some place in Africa - Cameroon to be exact! It's a scam - they just want you to send money, but there is no dog...

Kim Esmiga has an add that said she has two puppies for adoption,I wrote her and this is her reply. I western unined the money and she didnt answer me, This morning she sent me an E-mail that said that the irport wanted 150.00$ for the crate in order to ship the dogs. I asked that she take the dogs to the airport and have them contact me but she hasnt answered. If you search her name here it said she is a fraud.

I am both mad and sad because she got me and because there are so many good people really searching for their companions here and people like this use this for wrong doing.

I have been dealing with those folks for months advertising free yorkies and you pay only shipping. I fortunately was smart enough to know not to send money to Cameroon or wherever. Everyone should check Craigslist and all the cities and just see that they are the same scammers advertising all over the US. Now they are posing as a Reverend over there omg. People should learn that they should insist they meet the people and dogs before they hand over any money. I'm sorry to say but it is stupidity to send someone money when there is nothing out there. I wish they could catch the sorry people doing such a thing. They will burn in you know where one day..I HOPE!!!

Gardeness · 08-18-2008, 04:00 AM

Sorry for your loss of $$$. That is a very typical SCAM letter.

Nimue · 08-21-2008, 05:59 PM

I've seen that ad and many like it, on Kijiji. I like to report those to the site admin, so I email from a hotmail account. Snicker. I always get pretty much the same spiel: They always have to give up the dog for health reasons, are only charging the plane fare, and claim that the dog will be delivered directly to your house, by-passing any security/customs procedures. They stop replying when you ask for their vet's name and phone number!

It's ridiculous. I've seen a story about it on the local news; some poor soul actually fell for it and sent them $400 for the plane ticket. Of course, no dog arrived at the airport. It's really awful for people to prey on others' feelings for animals that way Wish these people could be caught and put out of the scamming business.

I like to report those to the site admin, so I email from a hotmail account. Snicker. I always get pretty much the same spiel: They always have to give up the dog for health reasons, are only charging the plane fare, and claim that the dog will be delivered directly to your house, by-passing any security/customs procedures. They stop replying when you ask for their vet's name and phone number! It's ridiculous. I've seen a story about it on the local news; some poor soul actually fell for it and sent them $400 for the plane ticket. Of course, no dog arrived at the airport. It's really awful for people to prey on others' feelings for animals that way Wish these people could be caught and put out of the scamming business. __________________ And you thought York Peppermint Patties were great!
