I don't think these people know how easy it is to spot a scam. It is truly a shame for the people who do think it is possible and get taken emotionally and financially. |

Here is a big tip for scammers... If they are just looking for you to pay shipping charges... Tell them to fly them counter to counter... This means it cost nothing at their end to ship a pup you pay at your end... See how fast they will dump you as a potential owner of one of "their" pups... Maybe mention this process on your next contact with this lady you are playing along... |

In one of our local site people from Africa posted about a yorkie puppy. I sent them a email and told them what I thought about them. He sent me an email really pissed off. My friend that has yorkies played along with him and he said to sent him the money just like this person has done with you. She has not email him back since the email about the money. It was a little girl that was about 6 months old. She was a cutie, I hope she wasn't a pic off your site. Sad thing there a people that will sent the money. |

Sadly this is what they do all day long. Looking for the people that will fall for these scams, sadly some do fall for this crap. Even within the US its a risk getting a puppy over the internet but Nigeria is well known for all the scamming they do. You will play along and that is great, they will as well, sitting back hoping you wire that money and give them the info they need to pick up. Once you tell them you are not stupid and know what their little game is, they really dont care. They move on to the next potential victim, making up sad stories and using gods name. People need to be more careful, I\'m sure this has been mentioned before. That price listed for a yorkie is ridiculous, considering they also claim show potential etc. The original email sounds ridiculous to me as well but I guess there are people that do fall for this. Kimberly it is sad that those bastards are using your pictures. I don\'t think much could be done since they are in another country. Best thing is putting your name or website name in them and hope for the best. GOODLUCK messing back with these people. They do deserve it! |
