Scam ?

Post by stanimals2 »

I got the same email as many others who have posted adds for dogs for sale. An E-mail from http://www.mikepetscare@yahoo.com claiming he was owed money from someone over seas (3500.00) who wanted a dog. Money was no object and they would pick the dog up at your house. Sounds to good to me ,how about you ? I think we need to stand together on these things and put a stop to them. Bev how about adding a link where we can post scam adds for others to see ? Thanks, Stan

Yes, it's a scam. He'll ask you to send real money as change to his fake cashier's check.

I got the same e-mail. But he told me not to worry about shipping that his international carrier would pick the pup up at my house. Now that's getting pretty brave. I also know a gal around the road that sent a Tennessee Walker to Spain after she got a certified Check for 5000.00. Guess what? IT WAS FAKE! Last I heard she was'nt having any luck getting her horse or money back. Whats wrong with people now a days?

I got the same e-mail and told him I was not interested in having to do all that crap. He used the same terminology...my client in Israel owes me for helping him buy a house. I haven't heard back from him.
