I found a Chihuahua puppy on oodle dog.com. My Chihuahua had recently been hit by a car in front of my house and he advertised a puppy that looked a lot like mine. He pulled on my heart strings saying he had lost his wife and son in an accident and been transfered by his job to NY from Los Angeles. I transfered the money Western Union to him and in the process of trying to find where to sent the money number came across this website with another person with he same story. I immediately reported this to Western Union and my bank. I am going to post his email so that anyone receiving such emails will be aware. He sounds very legitimate and thats the sad part.

This guy also has an ad posted on Craigslist for a pair of Samoyed puppies for free. I asked if I could pick them up in person. He could never agree on a time even though I am available 24/7. He also told me about his wife and son being killed in a car accident. His ad was posted in Texas but he said he and the puppies were in Indiana. He wanted $350 to send them both. I asked him to call me about the details but he never did. PLEASE stay away from this guy. He has NO dogs and is a major LOSER!

Well this is an obvious scam from the beginning. The punctuation, and grammatical errors are suspicious, as they're over the top. The "too good to be true" description, and the sob story are all known tactics of scammers. Lastly, his request for personal information, and the sudden urgency to deliver with such a high fee is the biggest red flag of all. I don't understand how anybody would believe the cell phone bit, and the fact that he is in control of the entire transaction should make any normal person uncomfortable. I feel sorry for anyone that bought this for a minute.
It's also a damn shame that anyone would be so desperate for money to tug at one's heartstrings, and betray that trust we should have in other "pet-owners".
