Help wanted - kitten selling scams??
Hi,
As you know we have been looking for another kitten. Having looked through the internet for adds for people selling we have found multiple adds for a persian kitten all with professional pictures but different text in the add and coming up for various citys and on various. Having contacted this person they advised that they are in Birmingham but would send the kitten to us which we feel is a bit strange considering we are in Aberdeen. It also states on the add that they want the kitten to 'go to someone in your country'. Has anyone experienced anything like this when looking for a kitten. Thanks Lisa |

We had that last year with a whippet pup, they wanted £45 to deliver the dog to us, but we realised it was a scam, they were nigerians

Re: Help wanted - kitten selling scams??
Hi
I have come across two now. There was the one for white persian kittens which had ads placed on muamat and Gumtree! And I just came across another one whom I was interested into start with a Bengal kitten for adoption, the lady said she was deaf and could only communicate by email, but just as I asked to come and see it (her ad said she was in Aberdeen) she said that she was in New Quay would need to ship the kitten at a cost of £190!! I cant believe people would be so cruel about this!! Thank you for your replies though, I just felt something wasn't quite right with these ad's. |

Re: Help wanted - kitten selling scams??
scams are easy to spot, in the uk we don't take photos of pets with flowers and props,scams always mention the name of pet and weight,ukc is american,never mention a price always for adoption,
if its too good to be it usually is ![]()
