Ok well I didn't notice that he was selling them together but then I read on and he mention WEST AFRICA I heard about scams about going to foreign countries second he ended the email with THANKS AND GOD BLESS YOU (AMEN) sounds like you trying to use religion to scam somebody in. I knew this was a scam half way in reading it WHAT DO YA"LL THINK!!! I think this persons needs some extra Christmas Cash!

scam
 

Big time scam....

Oh geez :rolleyes: That just SCREAMS scam :mad: :thumbdown

Capital "S" Scam!!!

Yeah we have that scam going on in Baltimore also. I replyed to an ad in the papper and the guy said that he he sold the 2 puppies to his friend and she moved to West Africa to head up a public relations department.

Western Union and anywhere in Africa spells SCAM!!!!! I'm surprised they are asking $1200. Most of the time they are relatively cheap to catch more people. This is what I do to every scammer I come across... OOOh and AHHH over the pup and say that you would like to see pictures of the parents. Of coures they won't have any. Then mention that you or a close friend or family member will be in the area where the puppy is located and to save them the worry of shipping her you can just have her picked up. You will never hear back from them.

We need to mess with every scammer out there. They are screwing with our world and they need to learn not to mess with Yorkie people:D

Omg!!!
 

not only is it a scam but there pretty dumb also cause it says life exp. 8- 10 years lol
they should know the breed before trying to scam people

I knew this was a scam after the first two sentences - plus - the fact that you had to contact them by E-mail was the first clue.

STAY AWAY !! IT'S A SCAM !! :mad: :eek: :thumbdown

Scam:mad:

LOL YEAH its a SCAM! And a very very BAD attempt at one! What an idiot this scammer is!

SCAM! I answered one of just for laughs, and the nut wanted me to Western Union him $200 for shipping, and he would give me the dog free, because he lived in Africa, and was suppose to be a Reverend. I went along with it for a while then I emailed him back, and asked if was related to the people who wanted my banking account number, so the Queen of some foreign country could send me lots of money. I also told him if he were a man of God then he should have faith in me, and I'd send him after I received the money. Never heard from him again.

Hahahaha thats great! Good job! We should all start answering the scammer and see how many of the pups he "has" to sell. lol or tell him that we are from some fbi organization and we are onto his scam and he will soon be arrested or something. lol
