Someone please look at this - I don't know what to think?? Hello, Thanks for the interest. We are happy you are ready to take make one of these lovely babies yours. We had 7 puppies on this litter and only 4 are available. the rest have been reserved already. I have sent pictures of boys and girls available .Ben and Mitch are boys while Carly and Lucy are girls. Anyone you choose will certainly be yours. The puppies are 12 weeks old, and estimated to weigh 3.5lbs fully matured. See pics of their parents too. The cost of one puppy including transportation to your home is $300. The fact is my partner and i decided to sell this litter that cheap so that every pet loving home, those who can't afford the relatively high prices on the breed but they have love to offer can benefit from this and bring one home. We are located in Atlanta GA and will ship the puppies to you. We have several pet delivery services who will take very good care of the puppy on it's trip to you. You will pick up the puppy at your closest airport or delivered to your house address. The total is $300 for a puppy including delivery at your doorsteps. They are AKC registered, deworm, paper trained and are very socialized. We ship with major shipping agencies with high professionalism and perfect handling, so you do not have to worry about the safety of your puppy. The pups are accompanied by one or two puppy nannies, ones who will take very good care of your pup during delivery, provide food, water, comfort. hence low stress and delivery safety is guaranteed. The delivery agents will bring your pup right at your doorsteps. Delivery is done the same day after reservation or next day depending on your location. I will make the delivery arrangements as soon as you are ready for the puppy. The puppy will come with all papers, travel crate, puppy food, sample kit and food, puppy blanket, Akc Registrations, cards and toys etc. Please forward your details for puppy reservation: Name. Home address. City. Zip Code: . Phone number. Closest Airport. When are you ready for the puppy/ Where do you want the pup to be delivered(House or airport) What is your puppy's choice . I look forward to hearing from you |
I'm no expert, but I would want to know, if the pups were bred by them and owned by them, if there is testing and if there is a health guarantee, for just a few questions. |
Looks like a scam to me. I would be very careful. I answered a ad like this on a horse trailer once and learned if its to good of a deal its not real. |
this IS a scam, definitely you can google it up, its an oldie that people still fall for....BEWARE |
Definitely a scam. Yorkies cost much more than $300. A well bred Yorkie litter never has 7 puppies. |
Agree with the others, it's a scam, and you probably have to wire money to them. I got a similar email for a minister in Africa. If it comes with a picture, you can do a google image search and chances are you will see the picture on many websites. If you tell them you can pick up the pup in Athens, they will have a reason why you can't do this. |
Yup, SCAM! |
That's EXACTLY what I thought but I wasn't sure...Glad I asked! Thank you all:) |
I guess where I was confused to start with the add was posted under maine puppies for sale and then when I received the email they said they are located in GA...But I asked if I could set up a time ( before I knew how far away they are ) to go see the puppies and they said yes...so I wasn't sure but I'm going to just file it and continue looking...Thanks again:) |
oh that is a scam!!! I agree with the others... |
To see if it is truly a scam which I believe it is tell them you are willing to travel to Georgia to see and pick up the pup. Tell them you will pay them then, and you need their address. If they say okay and give you the address google it if they come up with an excuse you will know for sure it is a scam. |

I to would say scam. shipping the puppy alone can cost 200-300. |
Scam This is classic Cameroon/Nigerian scam! |
Definitely a scam. There is no way someone can pay airfare, vet fees for teh shots, etc & someone to stay with the pup during the trip & charge only $300. This smells to high heaven. Folks, use your common sense here!!!!!!!!! :( |
I say scam too! If it is too good to be true than it usually is:( 300.00 no way! |
Definitely a scam! There is NO WAY they could fly TWO nannies (yeah, right) with a dog across the country for $300. DON'T DO IT!!!!! |
Scam alert! |
Anyone in Atlanta? If so call them up and tell them you will be right over. Would be interesting to hear their response just for fun. |

On another note, the day after we got Uni, we went to see this family who had yorkie puppies. There were 7 in that litter. The mom was completely golden. The sire was locked up in another room bc they said he's aggressive. Yet they said they breed bc they love the breed and don't do it for the money. ooooookay... They were asking $1300 for the males. At 12 weeks old, they still hadn't sold any of them. And they were huge and already doing stairs like pros! They live near me. I always wondered what happened to those pups. |
Scam!! I'm glad you asked first!! Wow they are getting good. Usually grammar is the first clue but I must admit this one seems well versed. But the story is always the same. Someone saying they have a situation where they need to find homes for the pups at a low price and want to ship them to you and will continually ask you where you want them shipped. These scammers always make me so angry. And it infuriates me how they are getting better with their fake stories and fake information, I can see how an unsuspecting novice owner could fall for this. Bunch of lazy lowlifes need to go out and get a real job instead of stealing and scamming from innocent people.:mad: |
Well I disagree with a yorkie having 7 puppies is a scam. It does happen. But I saw an ad like this for a horse trailer once We truck drive and happened to be in the town it was at. They said oh sorry it has been moved since then. I said okay to where. We would be there tomorrow. And it went on and on. Big scam. I stopped asking after the second move. |
You really have to be careful these days |
Scam Warning That is definitely a scam. Check out this online warning, the letter is almost the same, but it is for Kittens. www.scamwarners.com • View topic - Sharon Cappucciana <sharonpinky24@gmail.com> |
Don't be fooled! SCAM!!!!!!!! There I said it big enough. :eek: When I was looking for my Boy I encountered these fools. Not only here in Florida, but also when I was on vacation in P.R. Also. I do a lot business for car parts on CL and I have seen them there too. Stay away from them. |

Must be a big Yorkie to have that many pups. I would go for this for anything. Find a reputable breeder in your area, get to know them well and look them and their facilities over and check on their reputation. Word of mouth can be a good way to go if you talk to people who show Yorkies or are in the local or nearest Yorkshire Terrier Club. Then get on a waiting list if you want a puppy; otherwise, sometimes a reputable, respected breeder will sell a selected adult dog or older puppy for one reason or another and you don't have to wait so long. Otherwise, you are opening yourself up for a scam or an unhealthy dog. People just don't sell and ship to your door a healthy, truly purebred Yorkshire Terrier puppy - especially females - for $300.00 - no way. |

What research has this buyer done on you and what questions have they asked you about your lifestyle, family, other pets, type of home, etc.? If they or any seller isn't checking with your vet and also vetting you - run! |
Seriously!! Just the title....'look as this I don't know what to do' run for the hills!!! |
