| Sounds fishy to me, too. But if they really need missionaries to go to England, sign me up!!!!! Why preach from a tent in the jungle when you can stay at a hotel in London!!! Julie |

| $700 for shipping? Missionary? Definitely sounds fishy to me. I'm told it's only $300 to safely ship a puppy from Hungary to the states... so why would a puppy coming from UK cost a little over two times more? The weather being harsh there is a bit suspect as well. |

| The weather in the UK is harsh? WHAT? I would be very suspicious of ANYONE who contacted me from a third-party email address such as yahoo if they wanted money. I would not deal with this person. There are people in UK that would love to have puppy...she does not need to put a puppy on a 7-9 hour flt to find it a home. Bren

Yorkie Kisses are the Best! Donating Member | Way to go Rini....Share those scams with everyone here because they are taking over the net. Can you believe these people ? A missionary huh - now that's funny ! and ' "Doing away with her"? What awful wording. It's such a shame because people are reading this crap and thinking they'll finally have a puppy to love ...and they end up out their MONEY AND NEVER GET A PUPPY..... |

| OMG, I got that same message about 1 month 1/2 ago. I was looking to purchase a yorkie and I started sending emails and that same email found its way to me. I though it was a scam. |
