| Someone just recently got scammed from someone selling a puppy from Nigeria. I say stay away and find a puppy from someone you know for sure is legitimate! Just my 2 cents. |

| i seen an ad before for yorkies in another country and when i asked to see pics he sent them but i knew he had just copied and pasted the photos from some other website because he told me their names but when i put my cursor on one of the photos it gave the real name of the pup and i askes him about it he replied no no it was the photographers mistake. Total Scam. I did not buy from him and will not buy from another country unless i knew for sure it is legitimate. |

| Absolutely a scam. Stay away. There are many reputable US breeders, some of whom are on this forum. If you are interested in getting a pup, I'm sure they would be more than happy to help you. |

| OMGOSH!! Please stay away from those,I have heard alot of stories and they have all been scams!! Do not send them any money please, i am sure if you shop here in the US you can find a puppy and at least have some recourse if it turns bad. There are a million horror stories and the poor people have never seen their money or a dog. Good luck in your search for a baby. |

| oh thats to bad Thats what I thought. It sounded to good to be true. I just dont have alot of money and I really really want a yorkie or a morkie. And the price of shipping is about all I can afford. So when I saw that all I had to pay was shipping I was all over it. But I am glad I asked you guys first. I guess Ill just keep looking. Meka |

SCAM!!!! If you find anything from nigeria, its more than likely a scam. I dont knwo what the deal is. I got this guy tryiing to scam me out of thousands of dollars from nigeria. But I am on to him. I am playing dumb with him so when he sends me the money order I am turning it into a FBI guy that is knows my banker friend. But seriously there is TONS of scamming coming from nigeria. I have had at least a dozen emails from that region this month alone.
