Not that anybody on here would fall for it but Ive just come across one on so many advert so googled it and the list is extensive!!!! I still find it quite hard to believe that anybody would fall for it!!!  And a part of me questions do they deserve to be scammed if they want to buy a puppy without meeting the parents/ owners/ puppies in person!!!

You've just given it even more free publicity. :-( That email address will now come up on a Champdogs search which gives it credibility.

If they are the free or cheap' insert any breed name' pup ones, that want money for shipping, then they have been around for ages.

They are very obvious to people in the breeds, often use 'lifted' photo's or the same ones for years, often very ungrammatical English.

Agree with Brainless.  It is definitely nothing new.

I've had folk phone me for a pup "free or cheap" as they have lost 100's due to scammers.

A fool and his money,,,,,,,,
