I think the only thing that they care about is money and they prey on our most vulnerable parts... our hearts.

OMG I am soo very srry for you. I cannot believe the heartlessness out there AND THOSE POOR DEAR PUPS, to have suffered so and been through so much. My heart goes out to those including yourself that took them in. Dear things all.

The person that scammed you probably didn't even have a puppy... they probably stole the picture from some breeder's website.

Scams while looking for a "t-yorkie"....well imagine that :rolleyes:

Seen it
 

I did see the same add and on a few web-sites I did report it a few times to two or three different sites and was told that it was being taken care of it! I too was going to send money and a friend talked me out of it , thank God !! I am now being very careful!!:aimeeyork Some people are so heartless!!

I found the site
 

This is the add that I found:

Thanks for the mail. I quite appreciate your proposing in purchasing my puppy. The puppy is currently available forsale,though the puppy is now with me here in Nigeria, because i arrived yesterday to Nigeria, where my church is having a prayer crusade. I have no one to leave the puppy with there in USA, so i have to come down with the puppy down to Nigeria where i am now with the puppy.

But the question i am asking you now is,

*Do you have a home where my puppy can play around ?
*Do you have any other pets and children that will also be close to
the puppy ?

If so, i will be very glad and happy,

because the puppy lovepets and children and will not like to stay alone.

The puppy is 12 weeks and the puppy has a current vaccination,vet exams,health certificate and 1year guarantee.The puppy has potty trained,home raise and socialized for tremendious attitude with C.K.C and A.K.C Registered. The total is $300,shipping cost is included. No additional charges. I will be really happy to have you as a good caring for my puppy only if you can take care of the puppy as your baby. Actually money is not what matters, but to find a good caring and loving person. If you could be able to take care of my puppy, kindly send your contact details such as...

Your full Name,..........................................
Address,.......................................... ...........
Country,.......................................... ...........
City/State,Zipcode,.................................... ...
Phone Number,........................................... .
Nearest Airport to your home.......................
Where will you like the puppy to be delivered (Airport or Home).

WHEN DO YOU WANT THE PUPPY TO ARRIVE ? NOW or WHEN. ?

Mind you that it will only take few hours for the puppy arrive,since the puppy will be coming with a direct flight.

With this i can make arrangement with the shipping agent for shipping preparation. The puppy will be arriving in a couple of hours, because i have already made an arrangement with the shipping company here. So it will be very easy to have the puppy ship once i found a buyer. Let me know if i can count on you as a new Mom or Dad to my puppy.Get back to me as soon as possible.

Thanks and God bless you.

How big will your yorkies get??

I'm so sorry for any of you that have been scammed. that is so heartless. I try to live by two sayings.

If it sounds too good to be true, it probably is.

If it doesn't come easy, better let it go.

As a breeder here, I can tell you that I see as many scammers trying to buy my puppies. Offering extra money, telling me of transporters coming to get the dog.....We check and double check all references, call referrals, call shelters, run google on emails, names, addresses, etc.

Everyone needs to be very careful. Sorry to read about your loss.
