I know I have no idea, I emailed her that very question and she has yet to repond, perplexing to say the least!

| OMG I can not believe it. Well I CAN... but you know what I mean. Did you ask the lady HOW she found YOU and knew they were your pups. I think I would be very interested to know how she found YOU!!!!!!!

| This INFURIATES ME as I think when we first started looking for another yorkie, we were being scammed by the woman that sent us pics of the yorkies she had for "sale". She sent us a collage similar to the one you posted, and when we asked for more specific pictures of the females (as that's what she said she had left), she never got back to us about that and dodged just about every question we asked...plus wouldn't let us come to her home. I don't get how these people can live with themselves, especially scamming people out of money when all they want is to be a loving yorkie parent. It makes me SICK.

| LOL Somebody was posting the same question I asked at the same time. I think if the lady does not answer you about how she found you... That would also make me suspicious .

| OMG, that is soo disgusting that someone would do that. i feel bad for you and that poor person being mislead- at least she was able to find out that they came from you and alert you to it. thats so ridiculous. let us know how it goes with getting through to Puppyfind.com, they need to step up and be held accountable for this kind of thing so that it can stop happening. soooo many people tried to scam me on that site when i was trying to find a puppy, but i was pretty much onto them with the"relocating england/africa/ japan /peace corps" BS ... i wonder how she was able to find out they were your pictures? at any rate, im so sorry<3<3<3

| The last link said "these puppies are willing to go to Christian homes". My goodness. The level some people will stoop to. I'd love to put these people in their place. I'm going to start putting a transparent "butterfly yorkies . com " on all of my puppy pics that I post. I just can't believe you were a victim to this and I am so sorry. I would do all I could to pursue these losers!!!! |

Yorkie Kisses are the Best! Donating Member | Kim...there are SO many geniuses out there who just sit there inventing ways to get our money - be very careful dealing with this person AND protect your pictures on your site.... What a shame this happened but it's a HUGE lesson for anyone looking at new puppies - You have to be VERY VERY CAREFUL ! IF Anyone is from a foreign country - RUN - there's the free or very cheap puppy - you just pay shipping up front - RUN.... there's the Nigerian Scams and the scams where a Seller will have you WIRE them money - RUN.....DO NOT DO IT !! There's a Cashier Scam going....bogus Checks...man ...too many to list !! This is just the kind of thing that cost people their money & their trust ...but the worst thing is...they never get a puppy and are heartbroken - it's so MEAN ! |

| I am so sorry this has happened to you. It is just terrible that these people have stolen your pictures and are trying to pass them off as their own. If I were you I would contact Puppyfind too. At least maybe you can get it stopped that way.

This is just so wrong! And they are advertising Ch. lines, and Ch. Sired pups in the Los Angeles area for $200 --- what a scam that is. You can't get anything in LA for $200. At least not to my knowledge. I'm sure most people around here will recognize it as a scam, but what is bad is that they are using the pictures of your beautiful puppies to scam people. And then if you should show someone a picture of your puppy they might get the impression that you are the one who is dishonest! (Not any one on YT, of course, but there are some people who don't belong to this site!) This whole thing really makes me mad, and it has nothing to do with me. I don't even know you personally, but I'm as upset as if it had happened to me, or to a close friend! I sure hope you can find out more about this and put a stop to it! Good luck!! | |
