Sounds like a scam to me

This says SCAM ALL over it!!!!!!!! :eek::eek::eek:

Yes definitely!! It will be funds like a money order or check that will be out of the state and be fraudulent. They want you to cash it in get the money from your account then give them the remainder. Later down the line your bank will find out it is fake then charge you the whole amount. So in essence they will have a free puppy and extra money all courtesy of you!!!!!! There is a thread on here somewhere about this.

Yes, definitely a scam...........big time scam written with every word!:thumbdown:thumbdown

Yes I think this sounds like a big scam. Everything in it just sounds very fishy

Scam! Please run!

definitely a scam

Any time someone throws out that....I'll send you a check and you send me the remainder...it's a scam. That cashier's check is counterfeit.

Ya scam for sure.

I received many a suspicious e-mail about my last litter.

Always the same text but with different sender. I didn't reply to any.

And some weird phone calls too...

So many scam out there!

Thanks for all the input, I defionitely thought it smelled like a scam. It didnt even make sense to me. If you are hiring a transporter then why don't you just pay them?

I think I will ask him that and play with him for a while.

Yes there are so many scams and they said on 20/20 last night, it will get worse as the economy gets worse.

scam
 

:confused:sounds like one to me. I would not do it...

HA I wrote and told him I would prefer that he gives the check to the courier and they can cash it and bring me the caxh when they come to get the puppy. LOL

HA! Great response Jeanie! It was a scam for sure!
