Phone and Text Message Scams
From Scammer to Breeder I received a phone call from a hearing impaired TT machine. Asking if I still had puppies left and to email him with more information. The response to my email was this. The reason I am sending you this email is to make final reconfirmation of puppy *which is ok by 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 any information that may be required to send the payment as I do not want to send the check or money order to a wrong location lest they get into the wrong hands. Regarding the shipping, I have a company that takes care of the pickup of my consignments for me and ship to my destination in VERMONT anywhere in the U.S.A., you do not worry about shipping, the company will send down a representative to I also want to alert you on the fact that you will be receiving an overdraft check, which will cover the money for the pickup (pickup and shipping to the final destination) as well as the money to be paid to the company that will take care of the pickup and the documentation with you. So please, as soon as you receive the payment, go and cash it immediately, deduct the money that accrues to you, and send the balance to the Head Office of the company that handles the shipment via Western union.Th e check will be in your name to make it easier for you to receive payment, please reconfirm your details one more time .I will give you the details of the company that will be shipping the puppy as soon as we seal this deal.Once the money is received by the agent , the shipping agent will contact you immediately to arrange the documentation as well as the pick up immediately. So in view of the above, here are some of the details I will need for final issuanceof the check or (1) Full Name
Once you get back to me with all the above, the check or money order will be issued out immediately and it will be sent to you .Hope to hear from you immediately .Looking forward to your swift response I will also be offering you extra $50 for keeping puppy. for me till the shipper comes for the pick up..NB, I will be looking forward to your swift response You will go out in joy and be led forth in peace . . .

"I am contacting you to warn other people about this certain Scam that has plagued my boyfriend and I for the past 2 weeks. They are based out of Massachusetts. They say they are selling dog insurance. They call 3-4 times a day and say that you had purchased it and that it is about to expire and would you like to renew it. DON'T FALL FOR IT!!! We looked them up and they "company" doesn't even have a return phone line. I wanted to warn others about this before they made the mistake of purchasing something like this." Submitted by Sarah
