I wouldn't want to cause trouble, so I understand the hesitation in "outing" this person. However, she freely contacted you and shared the info that she is doing this on this site and others. If she were that worried about keeping it under wraps, why would she have told you?

In your post you wrote, that you hope your letter helps someone on this site. I think it will, it contains valuable information about what to look for and look out for. I am right now buying a pup, and I would have never known I can contact the AKC (or, here in Canada, the CKC) to make sure everything checks out properly. SO thank you for that advice.

However, the only way to truly prevent one of us from buying from this breeder is to identify the breeder and/or the website she has her pups posted on.

Thakns for putting the info out there, no matter what you decide. I haven't been on this site for long at all, but have I ever learned the huge responsibility that I have as a buyer!!
