YT 500 Club Member | Ask her to send you a picture of one of the puppies with a name by it like your user name or a made up name. That's how you know, I got an email a while back almost similar. But you never know. The person I was talking too freaked out when I asked so I just never emailed them back. And remember, don't ever, send anything or pay for anything in cameroon or nigeria as most of those are scams.

| Seems very off to me. Any good breeder will tell you there is no such thing as a teacup yorkie and will not use that phrase. Do you know where they are located? I would ask for the address and google it. Did that before and turned out the address was a school in some random city.
