| omg.. abbout facebook... must read Many of you know I was scammed by a breeder.. it was horrific what I went through.. Fast forward she likes to get on your facebook especially if she sees a yorkie breeder.. then she likes to find out more sources and info from your friends lists.. this is how she gets to know and uses people. This girl is so smooth she could sell ice cubes to eskimos... yup that bad..and there was not just me..others after me came out.. Anyway my story is.. a girl wants to be on my facebook as a friend.. not sure how she found me.. so I question her as to if she was on the forum and how she found me and so on and so forth.. I was busy at the time and I allowed her..so last night I sent her a message as I went into her picture page of her dogs to find out she is a breeder in Canada and shows her yorkies.. I told her I was sorry but since I was scammed I have less trust.. she she tells me a bit about her.. then I tell her how I was scammed and said no names.. I heard from her this morning and she told me this breeder had requested to be her friend also.. and was deleting her if it was the same person.. gave me her name and where she was from.. I told her it was her.. and she is alerting her other breeder friends that are on her facebook.. Just want all breeder to be aware and more so if you know my story at all.. for many do on YT.. And for those of you who do know her.. watch how you defend her.. for your day will come when you disagree with her..she took me in..she can fool anyone. anne |

| I am not a breeder, but I use facebook. Thanks for the heads up. It's so sad that people don't have anything else to do, but use other people.

| I know about deceitful breeders...and I know what you've been through too Anne. It's sad that there are unethical breeders out there like these. I had a very good friend screwed over by an unethical breeder not very long ago, and I regularly see this breeder hiding behind her computer screen pretending to be someone she is not, posting "congratulations", etc...all the while it's a fake coverup for a deceitful person....I just feel so sorry for the dogs and for those that get taken by her

Yorkie Kisses are the Best! Donating Member | Anne - that really sucks. You didn't deserve what happened and it's amazing as big as the net is - it can be very small too for someone to find you like that. hugs - |
