Okay people if you think this is too good to be true. It is. This is such a scam. Do not fall for this.

I didnt read past she is in Nigeria

Me neither :rolleyes: Never ceases to amaze me the scams they come up with!

LOL Chachi !!

I agree they;re SUCH Obvious scams - but I think yes - people do fall for it out of want for a dog

You would think they would come up with something new to say

I found this ad looking for puppy's around Lincoln, NE. I'm sure they get tons of people here to fall for it. We had a litter and was selling them for $800 and people in this area just thought we were crazy for asking so much. So I'm sure they see this and go for it.

This Is Such A Bunch Of Crap

email them back say your flying to nigeria within a week can you just pick the puppy up!!!


stinkin scammers

LOL Potty trained at 10wks? That's a joke. Do they know they are talking
about a Yorkie! "SCAM"

Was it Will Rogers that said
"There's a fool born every minute"

I really wonder though just how much money they do get from those ads.

Okay guys I really love to mess with this kind of people here is what I wrote back.

Oh this should work out really well my cousin is also in Nigeria on a mssion trip. What part are you in. I just called her and she would be more than glad to swing by and pick her up for me. She will be coming home right after the holidays, but said she wouldn't mind keeping her for me since she is potty trained. Which isn't really a big deal since they are sleeping in tents anyway. This would probably work out better than shipping her since I'm sure they won't let her ship to my area in Cargo because it's so cold and the cargo bay's arent' heated. Oh I'm so looking forward to hearing back from you. God Bless.

I am sure you will never hear back from them

How funny. I got the same type of email when I was looking for a yorkie. I didnt follow through because I have an issue with people shipping puppies in the first place...and from Nigera? Long trip for a dog...definitely a SCAM. THey should be ashamed of themselves. :mad:

I'm so sick to death of scammers! :(

LOL! That is funny. I still do not 100% trust my 3yr old. Even at my monthly Yorkie meetup group most of the owners say the same thing. Still love em though...:D
