| How to catch a scamer! I am looking for a female yorkie for a playmate for Chewie. I was looking around the internet to check out some mixed breeds and came upon Yahoo classifieds where many people are giving away Yorkie pups! I emailed 2 of them who are in my driving area and told them I could pick up the pup and avoid a stressful flight, because they wanted me to pay for shipping. Then I get an immediate response that he & his wife are on a mission in Africa and have the pup with them. I will have to pay for the shipping if I want to have her. It is amazing how many people who have yorkies are in Africa on missions!!! I knew it was a scam but had to see for myself if they would let me come and get her by car and she would still be free. Silly me!! I know where I can get some beautiful puppies here in the high desert and I have even seen them with my own eyes. |

| I was contacted by several scammers when I placed an online newspaper ad. They're pretty easy to spot. I'm hoping that more and more people will realize they are scammers and soon, they won't be able to get away with it anymore. |
