Scam for buying puppies.....Breeder's alert!

courtneyannb · Newbie

I am in the process of this scam right now! I was about to send my information to a man claiming to be deaf and wanting to buy my pup in Idaho when I realized that this didnt make much sense and did a quick internet search.

My husband just happens to be a State Trooper so he is going to see what we can do about this (which is probably not a dang thing) when he returns to work next week.

This just breaks my heart to think what would have happened if someone had actually come to pick up the puppy :( Its so funny also that this is an exact carbon copy of the email I received with the grammatical errors just the same and even the brackets around 4 instead of the parenthesis!

Go out and get a job you evil PR*CK just like the rest of us!!!

Hi

My name is Hulda, me and my family have Hulduheims kennel in Iceland, we breed Siberian husky dogs. I like to thank you for posting this on the web. We got this following letter, and thought something was wrong, then I did google this address and found this forum.
Thank you very much!

Thanks for your response. i will like you to reserve the female for me and also to
let you know that payment will be by certified cashier's check or money order. In
view of this I need you to email me the information that would be required to send
the payment, Moreso the puppy would be taken care of and would be pickup by my
shipper as i am located in my address Laura L Carter, # 13508 Jodi Rd,Auburn, IL
62615-9762. So the shipper would be coming to your location to pickup the puppy with
you.Also you need to know the payment will be included with the shippers fee to you
and once you get the payment by mail take it to your bank and get it cashed and go
ahead to deduct the money acrued to you with the reservation fee $50 for the puppy
and send the rest balance to the shipper Via Western Union Money Transfer so that
the puppy can be pickup from you immediately.
So in view of the above, here are some of the details I will need
for final issuance of the check or money order to you.
(1) Full Name.........
(2) Mailing address....
(3) Your direct telephone both home and cell
{4} Acceptance of my offer.....
(5) Final asking price...........
Once you get back to me with all the above, the check will be issued out immediately
and it will be sent to you .Hope to hear from you immediately.Finally i am making
you a promise that the puppy will be taken Good care of and my children will be
playing with them the puppies all the time and will make it just like a child and
nurtured like my friend,companion and pet at the same
time,never lacking any care and love from me at any point,i will also send you
pictures from time to time for you to see what love i it gets from me.
Hope to hear from you immediately.

Regards

Thanks for posting this site. This is the second year in a row I have received this scam. I feel for anyone who falls for this. I would hate to lose the money because it would be the cost of a puppy plus the "shipper" fee, HOWEVER, it would be worse not knowing what would happen to the puppy, especially since they want a female. I would be afraid it would end up in a puppy mill, God forbid. Here is the latest e-mail: disbelief

We have black German Shepherd puppies in Alaska and got the same scam from Gloria Musa at 143 Windy Hill Rd, Rainbow City AL 35906. When we got the relay assisted call this past Friday, we were curious. Then, we got the email asking to reserve two of our pups and they would send a money order, cash it and give rest to shipper, etc..
Do they think we are that dumb?? I just wish people like this could be locked up.

punkin · Newbie

One more time they are at it again. We received the identical email from Gloria Musa (gmusa101@gmail.com) Thank you for everyone that posted this scam. It would have just killed us to know that our precious little pug had gone to someone like this.

I recently received the same email for one of my puppies it was said to be for her sons birthday. I had a feeling something wasn't right so I googled the address and saw your site. Thank you very much. hopefully more people see it before they get scammed. You have to wonder what they are doing with the precious puppies they unfortunately do get. Some people just make me so sick.
