Re: Beware Of Internet Scammers
I got someone trying to scam me today, saying that their wife had died and he wanted to sell the puppies asap because they reminded him of her memory. He didn't seem to think what people would think if they checked any other ads he had placed. Hmmm i think there were at least 15 other breeds, all from the same user, different contact name, and incredibly different dogs, all for £100. I called him because I was suspicious, and he then said that they were now free and all I had to do was pay for courier, oh and that he had moved to Belfast so it would be more money than getting it sent from Kent! The range of dogs was from Alaskan Malamutes to Yorkshire Terriers. There were pictures attached for ALL the dogs available but they were all at different houses with different people! He asked for all my details and of course I gave him none. It makes me so sad to think that good hearted people will fall for these scams in the belief they will have a beautiful little puppy soon  I immediatly notified the website as there is nothing I detest more than scammers and there stupid stories
