Yorkie puppy scams

[central1634]

Please be very careful in these puppy transactions. DO NOT DO THEM!!!!  If you want a pup get your own shipping co. and you do all the arrangments.(try to do them localy so you can pick up the pup and have a health garentee) In this site there a three ads that i found to be fake.  They all mention free pups and or $300 for the purchase (more like shipment fee) of the pup. The people's phone # not working, their emails were in very funny english, pups in africa, and to top it all off the people
say they are christian missionaries.(go figure that)  Cindy R Elsworth #89499, Graham Green, Pastor Erika Smith email erika2christ@yahoo.com, Lagos Nigeria, Carlene Email escafinipets.yahoo.com and Frank Hiestant email rev_frank_002@yahoo.com.

This is perfect!!
First I would do the obvious. CAll them and ask them what the problem is. If you have already tried that, which it seems like you have, then Call your local PD. Let them know about all this.
Here the deal. Just a few questions.

Did you send them a check? Anyone who requests money orders only is probably going to screw you. They should be just fine with a check. And if id doesn't clear, then they won't send you what you ordered and no one REALLY looses anything. But if they ask you to send a money order, you can pretty much bet that you are not going to get what you ordered.
Now, here's the other side to that. If you sent them a money order and kept enough documentation of it, then you can see if it was ever exchanged.
Also, if it was, now not only did they commit the crime scamming, they also commited mail fraud!! That's a federal job there!!!

I would make them realize they scammed the wrong one!! Go Get 'em!!!

  I had the same thing happen. A lady claming she was from CA, had free yorkie puppies. Not true, she is a total scam artist. She has placed the ad on petsads.com the ad# 29815, email address is brittanybradson@yahoo.com  I just want people to be notified.

YES! Indeed these are scams. She also uses the name Jesicasmith52@live.com She is a scammer cause she tried it with me. After I caught on to her, she threatened me with a lawyer. Their English is really bad and they sign their emails with something like soonest. Please be aware. I did in fact make a complaint and they are going to be investigated and hopefully thrown in jail. I contacted the FTC.
