She is still looking for those two puppies :confused: then I went on to puppyfind.com and found 7 listings with pics of my pups, New york City, Texas, California and Chile all have different email addresses. These people are scaming others sending my puppy pics out :thumbdown :thumbdown :thumbdown :thumbdown :mad: |
Omg! |
OMG I WOULD BE so pissed ! Well - I AM pissed... for YOU ! and those poor poor people getting scammed - how can these people live with themselves ? I hate to say this - but you should WATERMARK Every picture you have on your site with "YORKIEPASSION (insert State here) - Do NOT COPY" and that can help.... unless they photoshop it all out - that just SUCKS ! |
opps here is her last email after forwarding me all her correspondence with the people that scamed her From: MAVAALIY@aol.com To: yorkiepassion@comcast.net Subject: (no subject) Date: Thursday, January 12, 2006 2:06:03 PM ok i sent some of email the others i will have to print and send to you cause i saved them and it will not let me forward them there are 100's of scams going on i just cant believe i found this pup real owner please get back to me thanks and i was wondering if you sold those pups yet? :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: |
OMG that is really bad! What can you do about something like that? I am sorry you have had your pics stolen! |
How can people possibly do that to other human beings. You have to work just like they do ,and they are not compassionate enough to say hey this is wrong ,and we're not only playing with their money ,but their hearts. People can be so cruel ,and thats why I would never buy a dog off the net. |
I've sat and re-read the post, and this just really disgusts me. So many "two bit" breeders out there looking to make a buck. Stealing pics of other puppies to pass off as your own has got to be the lowest form of breeding/selling pups that there is. I HOPE YOU CATCH THESE LOSERS AND IF YOU NEED MY HELP, IN ANY WAY...PM ME! It would almost make me feel "violated". |
You need to fnd a way to get in contact with puppyfinder. Tell them that these people are frauds ,and they need to get their Ip number. |
Omg!! This samething happen to me when I was looking for a yorkie..I got an email with some pics in it saying they had 3 babies available and sent pics of them. I was then looking online at pics and notice one of the pictures the lady had enailed to me in images on google. I emailed her back and asked her why she took pics off someone elses website she replied because it looked JUST like her puppies and her camera was broke. Funny thing was she wanted on 500. for 2 puppies which included shipping, however she would ONLY take Western Union. I work for a very large bank and know that Western union is a way people can scam you big time. So, I told her to grow up and stop trying to scam people who actually WORK for their money$$!! |
It's really hard to photoshop a huge watermark across your picture out so it would be a good idea, as much as i hate to do it as well, put a big watermark across your pictures. I would also HIGHLY reccomend contacting puppyfind.com and let them know! B/c they CAN do something about it! |
Unbelievable! I can't believe the nerve of some people; not to mention their criminal minds. Infuriates me that people can get away with this!!! |
Oh I'm confused... SO, how did this woman find you and know that it was your dogs?? |
OH how HORRIBLE!! Good LUCK! I sure hope you can help them thwart these idiots. All of the pictures we post here are easily copied off the internet. If there is a creep out there taking pictures, there may be OTHERS of us who have had beautiful puppy pictures stolen from here. It might be a good idea for anyone who has posted beautiful puppy pics to go check out puppyfind to see if this is so... I sure hope not, and I am really sorry to hear your pups are being used like that. :eek: |
Info If you can provide all the info about this person to me and maybe others here too will help we can all email puppyfind and tell them of this issue maybe more then 1 person emailing them will help also this is a form of internet fraud and there is things that can be done about this..It is a federal offense |
here are some of the threads that have my pics each one has my pics, all different people to respond to and different areas of the country for god sake Iam international my dogs are being sold from Chile too :D :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: http://www.puppyfind.com/view_listin...26page%25253D1 http://www.puppyfind.com/view_listin...8605e5b8c7903a http://www.puppyfind.com/view_listin...26page%25253D1 http://www.puppyfind.com/view_listin...8605e5b8c7903a http://www.puppyfind.com/view_listin...8605e5b8c7903a |
