I saw an ad for a yorke puppy looking to be rehomed in my area for only $300... and ofcourse I had to find out more information. Sounds like a scam to me. He stated he is located in Africa? Why would he post an ad in the Orlando penny saver? He also attached two pictures about the size of a penny. Has anyone recieved similar emails?
