I was hoping there would be some sort of resolution one way or the other, but apparently not. Sorry, but it reeeeeally just gets my goat when this kind of thing happens here on YT. (or anywhere for that matter really)


I've been scammed three times here, once with a dog jacket $30. over a year ago. Again same person doggie cookies and another jacket to replace the really bad work. {D ring was even sewn on.} And recently the end of Oct for $500. for a morkie puppy. I paid this person through paypal,and was to reicieve a morkie girl who was huge almost 5 pounds at 10 weeks old. This person was a long time person here on YT and on MalteseTalk. they've since disapeared and PP says there's no money to be had. The bank accound closed the day they got my money and they just left. We're currem;y hunting them down. Hope they like they're money. After the NC police catches them they won't be so happy. Sorry for the spelling but I'm crying while typing this.

It's bad, at this point in time I've not really been on here not that I ever felt welcomed,Because of the scams. When I do or had found something I'd love to buy it takes me forever to believe I'll even get it.

Anyway, she's stated that she's working. Her husband and her have a 401K plan that they could draw from. Not many people have that. Heck I don't. Some of us are beggin for jobs again none to be had. So why can't she be adult and pay back something. heck a buck at a time to someone.

How sad that you've been scammed on these sites! Did you not receive a puppy at all or was it that you received a puppy but she was bigger than promised?

I feel bad that you've been scammed. As far as 401's though, those you don't mess with, they are for retirement. Although I never bought anything from this person, I would also hope she would do whatever it takes to pay people back(money that should have never been spent until whatever it was that was paid for was shipped out). I'm sure she has money every month with her and hubby are working. One thing I can't stand are dishonest people!

I am so very sorry that you have been scammed by YT members. I will be glad to send you some treats to make up for the ones you never received.

I've not gotten another dog, though I was supose to. I've Twinkles a very specail chihuahua whose not supose to have wheat and glutten I apprecaite it. You are one of the very few I will buy from.

Somewhere out there is a speical little one who wants a lap to spoil them. Reason behind my not finding a local pup though my paper is that most times they are not really healthy. or if a pure so far out of standard. I've seen yorkies that look like chihuahuas or almost like a airdale? Which is scarey.

No puppy at all. In fact all the dogs they supose to have had, they didn't. They stole pics from the Net and went from there. Sad World isn't it. my last word from the police as they stole by fraud a ton of money was they were last seen in Kanas.

I'm with you on not being able to stand dishonest people. I've always let my guard down somewhat when ordering and paying for items through people on YT, I guess because I feel like I can trust them, but I've seen people scammed here before. (The dishonest members in those situations were banned with a big "scamming members" under their usernames.)

Oh wow, that's just terrible! And a long time member here? Have you told admin? They should definately be banned from these sites so no one else gets scammed. I'm so curious as to who it is...

Vi, you amongst many here at YT are to be commended for going that extra mile to please folks. How lucky YT'ers are to have those such as yourself and others here that are very caring and conscientious in doing business only one way.....the right way.

Connie, that was so nice of you to make the vest for Jaxon, I just saw his picture gosh does he look like one handsome little dude in his new pretty vest your among one of those top seamstress's here at YT, honest and forthright in aiming to please. Besides that what more can I say about you Connie, cept to say how much Jack and I love you and feel like you are part of our family.

Linda with FuFuFashions is another that words can't begin to express the kindness this lady has shown to many, and the beautiful work she has done for many people. Papi especially loved all the beautiful things you made for his little girl there again showing the love from your heart and another wonderful YT'er beautiful seamstress.

Cindy Chattiesmom, you are another always there aiming to please and I think that our girls were so lucky to get the gift at Christmas of some of your delicious treats from a wonderful YT'er. I hear you also are a beautiful seamstress, I would say that YT is very lucky to have all you fine ladies here to please making and selling items to others.

Amongst the ladies I have mentioned above, there are countless other folks here at YT that are hard working and ready to please with making and fulfilling promptly orders they receive and they are very deserving of your trust in ordering from them.

I hope anyone reading this won't feel that they have lost faith in doing business with others, this is wonderful community and much to be proud of. It can also be said maybe there are instances when maybe some YT'ers do order something from someone and the person making the product sends it out with good faith that they will receive payment................
but then the buyer doesn't come forth with payment

I personally think it is a good policy to pay upfront when ordering anything....
I don't make and sell, but I sure in the heck know what it is to sew and spend time and money on the items made and would hate like heck not to get paid for it.

I'm sorry for the long post but I sincerely hope that you Missy are able to read the posts here and will do your best to make it right. I hope you and your family a better beginning in the New Year and that things will be better for so many people that are in the same situation as you. I definately would have loaned you one of my machines if I lived close by, maybe you could borrow one from someone to fulfill your orders. Missy you used the word hate, I don't think there is really a YT member here that I know of that would ever, ever feel that way. Hurt and dissapointed very much so that should be enough to do your best to make every effort on your part to keep in touch with them and fulfill each and every order.

Hugs, from Patti and Jack

I pray for Missy and her family that 2009 sees things get better, times are hard for many right now myself and family included. But, if I have learned anything over the years its that business needs to be kept apart from homr funds. Sure it's easy to say I'll just barrow a few dollars from this account for this reason and then have things fall apart and you can't put the money back but no matter the reason its not smart business.
I also understand how the people who ordered and paid in advance feel and they have every right to those feelings. I hope that Missy will at least stay in touch with everyone that is owed and try to make it right.
In the mean time, I've gotten alot of help from some pretty wonderful people here in YT at a time when I really needed it for my furkids. I have made so many new friends here that I truely feel blessed.
I'm not a seamstress nor am I the worlds greatest baker but one thing I can do is type and print, and I have a libaray of cook books. So if anyone would like some recipes I would be happy to type and print them for you. I know it isn't the same as the books you paid for but I'd like to help if I can.

I would love to help out any way I can. The cookbook, I don't have a clue about but if anyone still has sewing orders that need to be filled I can help there. Just let me know what I can do to help.
