I wanted to inform everyone on here especially breeders about a new scam mean't to tug at your compasion. This is extremely important for everyone to read.

Scammers have officially reached an all time low as far as I am concerned. Today I received a call from an AT&T operator stating a I had a TDD call from a lady about my yorkie puppies. I accepted the call and the operator of course translated. The lady wanted to have me email her so we could speak better about her purchasing one of my Yorkie female puppies. She asked to be added to my yahoo messenger to speak more easily without having to go thru the operator. Well I did infact add this lady and after much discussion about my puppies she had expressed interest in Onika which is too young to go home of course at only 4 weeks so she knew she would have to wait for her. Well after our long conversation she says to me she wants to pay me for her thru a Cashier's check or money order. the she say I need to check my email and respond to her. Of course this is the email I received from her:

Hi..
Thanks very much for your response. I would be buying puppy you have for sale so kindly reserve it for me. You have to bear with me that I called with relay service, its because am hearing impaired. I am sending you this email to make final reconfirmation of the puppy which am willing to buy for my son as his birthday present and I also want to let you know that payment will be by certified Check or Money Order. However, I want to alert you on the fact that you will be receiving the Check or Money Order this week or next week and payment will cover your cost and as well as the shipping cost to be paid to the person that will take care of the pickup in your puppy. So please as soon as you receive the payment, get it cashed immediately, deduct the money that accrues to you and send the remaining balance to the Head Office of the company that handles the shipment via Western union. Moreso, I will pay you an extra $100 if you can reserve this for me. So in view of the above, Here are some of the details I will need for final issuance of the Check or Money Order to you.

(1) Full Name
(2) Mailing address, no p.o.box please
(3) your direct telephone number both home and cell.?
{4} Acceptance of my offer
(5} Final asking price

Once you get back to me with all the above informations, the check or money order will be issued out immediately and it will be sent to you.



Regards

Well as we all know very well this is a total scam, but these people have officially stooped to a new level. Using a woman who cannot speak suppossidly to tug at heart strings and make us feel more comfortable in taking their fake money orders and such. Please everyone be extra careful with these scammers new tricks!!
