Thread: A New Scam Out There

Hi Guys,

I wanted to tell you about a new scam that I was e-mailed..

This person sent me a e-mail that she had puppies that needed rescued and forever homes, and even sent photos of them. I would pay $200.00 plus shipping and insurance for a total of around $300.00. These puppies are very expensive so the cost she is asking is cheap. You do pay when you rescue, it covers vet bills. We have rescued a lot.

We offered to drive up to get them, but she wanted payment first...Western Union transfer. I told her it was to hot to ship puppies. This went on for 3 days, I knew she was scaming. She would give no info on her location or a phone number until I paid.

I just wanted to let you all know of this scam so no one gets hurt by it, there are no puppies.

Thanks

Sounds like Cruella has struck again Sharon ....

Poor puppies ...

Wow, they will try any thing.
Even though I know there are no puppies, I still feel bad for all the real agencies out there that do do good.
Good work, at least they didn't trap you with this one.

........thanks for letting us know about this Sharon.

Thanks. I hate the way scammers play with the heartstrings of generous loving people.
