Hello Tishal thank you very much for your mail . These three puppies in the attachement to this mail are available, two females and 1 males. guess you read about them on www.eltoncarranzer.110mb.com . their parents where just 4.8lbs
now i have a few question to ask you, and i really appreciate answers:
-Have you ever lived with a yorkie puppie before or any other puppy?
-do you have an acre of land, or again where they can always play around?
-Are you aware of the love and attention that yorkies need?
-will every one in your home be fully committed to the adoption of a new pet?
-what about if you know any good vet in your area?
Thank you in anticipation as i wait for your answers. their adoption fee is $150 and the puppies will be shipped and delivery to your home by EASY PET RELOCATORS or PETSONTHEGO. please also look back on www.eltoncarranzer.110mb.com and attach the pictures of the puppy/puppies you will like to adopt so that i can let you know what next to do? only these three puppies in the attachment are still available so make a choice within them. the two at the left are females and on the right is a male. I am located in California so it will cost $110 to ship the puppy to any where within the USA but you will have pay $90 upfront then you pay $20 when the puppy arrives. this is because the shipping company says it cost them $90 to ship and deliver the puppy to you and their commission is $20. it will take them 8 hours to ship and deliver the puppy to you. so get back to me so that i will tell you what next to do.
I am waiting for your kind response.
Cheers!!!!

whats petrelocaters or... petsonthego. At least he asks some questions about where the dog is going...but whats this !$90 to ship and $20 on delivery...NOOB! I think this has SCAM written alllllll over it. But I did ask him about where he was and if I could come see the pups as I was SO EXCITED!!! lol...we'll see what he has to say now!

An ACRE of land? Oh my poor deprived dogs.

I had a scammer just like this contact me when I was looking to get my newest addition. Someone had posted on a local houston website about having a "teacup yorkie baby" for free that they couldn't take care of. I wrote them back asking about the dog and they gave me this long letter about how they were "missionaries" in Africa and were there for two weeks and couldn't take care of the puppy due to church work -and GET THIS - that the 11 week old puppy was there in Africa with them, and that they were good Christians and wanted to make sure I was one too and would only charge me $200 for shipping by some made up pets delivery service named PETSEXPRESS and would take payment by Western Union. And have the dog to me the NEXT DAY.

A) I know how long it takes to get an animal through qaurintine in another country and the dog wouldn't even be with them by now.
B) It takes more than overnight to ship a dog from Africa.
C) I hate people that use bieng Christian as a way to scam people into feeling sorry or them or trusting them, that's not a very Christian thing to do last time I checked.
D) I wasn't aware what religion you are was a requirement for owning a dog, lol.

The guy you are posting about sounds like the exact same kind of scam, diff story, same scam. I love all the pets shipping service names these people come up with. These people are all unbelievable!!

Kathy,

The site goes back and forth as far as appearing. Last year in the earlier part of the year baby fidgette had some good fun with one of these nigerian scammers...it was good fun. For the newer folks on here go look it up. It was lots of fun scamming the scammer.

[linda44]

I emailed him and asked for the address so I could come see the pups, he just said he is in Lakewood, Cal, where am I.

[yoyo27]

Well you can always say you are going to have a friend to come over and see when you could see if it works out for your friend. See what they have to say. Tell them you want someone to see the puppies first.

I can't believe that I just happened to find the pictures this guy stole for his website. I typed in yorkie bangs and what do you know. Scroll down this woman's blog to Dec 24th 2006 and click on the picture and there you will find his "daughter". http://www.rathnait.net/blog/daily/

It's interesting that she is still typing up messages on her blog today! I'm going to show her the website with her pictures
