Have any of you had any dealings with this. I am so afraid of getting scammed that I told her it wouldn't be acceptable to me. Plus, she woul pick the puppy out when she gets here and then decide which one to buy. i guess she would notify her bank at that time and my puppy would be gone. The check would come days later. Sounds like a scam to me and my puppies ain't going anywhere till I have money in my hand. |
I would be nervous doing this as well...Although, I have heard of electronic banking but, even if she has her bank electronically mail it to you it could take a couple of days..I would talk to someone at your bank about this...see what they say. I'm sure people do do this. Or,you could ask her if she could pay you with a bank check..this way you don't have to worry about the check bouncing either...(I would NEVER take a personal check! I had my own business for 8 yrs and learned the hard way about personal checks) It's scary doing money things over the computer especially when you are talking more than $10.00.
