This Female pup presently weighs about 1.8 lb and will estimated to weigh between 4 lb to 5 lbs at maturity.live here in West Beach, FL (USA) with the baby Am going to ship to you via express delivery on same day delivery, so if you are interested in having the puppy, i want you to get back to me with your full name,address,phone number including the nearest airport to you. Please if you know that you are not going to take very good care of my baby, do not reply me because i am not giving because of bad condition or anything i am only giving this puppy out because we don't have time to take care of the puppy again due to my work here.

Best Regards. Thanks I wrote Hello Ashely I just spoke with my husband about this little female and he said if I want her get her.. I live in bakersfield, Ca the closest airport would be Medows Field -BFL- and she would have to come in on Delta Skywest.. I would love to have her.. and we would take great care of her. She wrote.... Shipping from Airport Details. Palm Beach International Airport West Palm Beach, FL Shipping of the puppy is $210 and $40 For care/feeding the total amount is $250,All the papers will be coming with the puppy,I will be very happy if you can promise to update me with her picture every month.This baby is very good with registered/registrable (AKC, NKC, etc.), Current vaccinations, Veterinarian examination, Health certificate Additional information,I will be looking forward to hear from you. I wrote Subject: Re: Yorkie Shipping Fees. Yes I will send you a picture every month..I was wondering how did you come across my info? So I called the airport and got some information. They said that they have COD on my end that way I can pay for her once she gets here, that way it is easier. Skywest Delta Connection a great carrier, my Aunt flies her Great Danes on them.. Lana She wrote Hello, Below is the information you need to wire the payment ,Be carefully to put down the correct receiver details :- Name : Address : City Delray Beach State : FL Zip Code : 33445 Text Question: Car Color Answer : Blue Once done i will send you the booking info which you can confirm via American airline After the transfer is done e-mail me with the Western Union details : Sender's name: ________________________ Sender's address:________________________ Sender's city:________________________ Sender's Zip code:________________________ Sender's state:________________________ MTCN: _____________ (money transfer control number) Go to any nearby (GROCERY) store around you and have the payment made via Western Union to the information above, I await your reply with the MTCN(# ) and sender information exactly as it's on western union form fill , As soon as the payment is confirmed i will have the baby schedule for shipping and get back to you with the airway bill number so as to enable you to track the shipment status .You must provide a valid ID or Drive License to claim the puppy at the airport. Do you have that? I expect to read from you soon. My regards I wrote: I was wondering how you came across my info? Also what about picking her up personally Is that possible? I really would like this dog.. She wrote I got your e-mail from an advert company,Due to my work i prefer to have the baby ship to you on the same delivery. I wrote I understand you work is hetic. Is there a telephone number where I can reach you? And since you are wanting to give the puppy away, would you mind if I sent you a U.S Cashiers Check or Money Order from the United States Postal Service? And can the puppy be sent Delta Skywest since they come right into bakersfield? If you made it this far Good Gravy...lol I think this is a scam, and I would LOVE to catch these people... What do you all think??? Sorry if I posted this in the wrong place. |
Wow, I'm glad you're suspicious. Yes, it sounds like a major scam. Why is it that all the scammers are illiterate? They would rather ship than have you pick the pup up personally? Huh? This "priceless" pup that they are going to give away? And she didn't even acknowledge the COD point. Eek. Don't do it! |
Hummm, my nephew is a deputy in W. Palm Beach Florida..Maybe you could write her and tell her your friends nephew is a deputy there, he can pick her up and bring her to me, and I can fly her to CA..see what she has to say then...lol |
Another scammer, Glad you caught it:thumbup: |
Yeah! Let's play scam the scammer! I came across so many of these when I was looking for Zoe! The big giveaway is the poor English. Plus, they never want you to come see the puppy..... Can't wait to see what you do ;) |
It is a scam for sure. I would walk a way. The English is aweful! Keep us posted |
scam Sounds like a scam to me!! Don't know how people can have such minds as to do this kind of thing!! I would walk away.!! |
Big time SCAM! Im amazed at how far you got with them. I hope you catch them.....Ooh, this would be a good ABC Nightly News or 20/20 story! They could set up hidden cameras, have a person pose as a interested buyer.:p |
Hello i got scamed just like that a while back in the same way i even put money down on the puppy, i never got mu money back and have since got a puppy called Tino and would change hin for the world |
These people make me sick. I had an add in the paper for Penny for and some jerk called and said he wanted me to give her to him for the 500, and he'd sell her for double what I was asking and give the money to me. I called him a puppy mill jerk and hung up. |
Similar Scam or maybe same folks Classifieds in the Leesburg,Florida Paper has FREE Yorkie. Please send $250.00 to address in South Africa. Same improper spelling and sentence structure. |
