Any news yet, Isabel?
OMG!! It's got to be Queeq. Isabel, I'm praying for you guys all the time. Please come home, Little Girl!!
Oh man.. I wanna cry.. just got off the phone with him.. we talked a couple hours ago and he said he was on his way.. that he was struggling to get gas on his car.. but heīd probably take the bus... now he said he wasnīt able to get here as he missed the bus.. ()where he lives is a kinda rural area with not much activity so I buyed it).. I offered to go there and picke her up.. itīs a couple hours away though.. he gave me his address butwasnīt sure how to explain me how to get there.. (many of this kinda people know how to get someplace but not give directions so i buyed it again)...
finally he said heīd get the earlier bus tomorrow... at 1pm... I will search his address as cellphones are unlisted but not addreses or so i hope...
if he doesnīt delivers... it probably was a scam all the way from the beginning.. but now i have someplace to go...
and i heard dogs barking in the background.. but sounded mostly as big dogs...
I hope to have better news tomorrow.. this whole weekend and days have turned into hell just waiting...
We're praying that it's not just a scam. That would be such an incredibly cruel thing to do.
Still praying for that PT Miracle and that she'll be back to you soon. :love:
Oh Isabel, I hope this is real. Please be careful. Many prayers for Queeq.
Isabel, you now have supposedly, his cell phone number, his name and address. (supposedly meaning he has given you correct information).
Are you at all familiar with the area that he claims to live in? Could you call that local police station and tell them your story and see if there is anything at all that they could tell you. It seems to me that there is a long delay here in between when he called and said he had your Queeg
and now. He missed the bus? No gas for his car? I am having trouble here with this information and I just don't want to see you harmed or hurt even more than you already have been.
Keep us posted - all of us are praying for you and Queeg.:love::love:
I know where the place is.. but itīs been a looooong while since iīve been there.. itīs an outside of civilizatin kinda town... thatīs why Iīve buyed his excuses.. but yes, i too consider itīs been way too long.. especially if heīs getting payed for everything.. reward plus gas plus toll plus whatever expenses he has...
Iīm not keeping my hopes that high but I donīt wanna blow this light too soon either...
police stations are not really that helpful here.. and regarding pets even less.. Iīll just hope whatever it is it ends tomorrow scam or not.. just end... so i can move forward and not be daydreaming in vane.. but hoping he does has her
With all the trouble he seems to be having, I hope he has money to feed the dogs. Still praying here in Florida.
Isabel:::I want to tell you that I feel like flying to Mexico to help you kick this guy's butt if it is a scam. Please come home Queeq!!!
Still praying Queeq is returned to you, but in all honesty, this is sounding more & more like a scam. You are smart not to give him any money till you have your dog in hand. Is there any way you can drive to his location instead? I know its a long shot and he probably isn't where he says he is, but you might be able to look around the area and put up more signs? If he really does have her stashed away, maybe a local person will call you and let you know if she has been seen in the area.
If he has her it doesn't sound like a goood situation at all. People with no gas and cars breaking down on the highway, when she's with them? Does the bus even take dogs? I'd find out exactly who he is and where he lives and hunt his house down if it were me.
I feel the same way.. but still wanted to give benefit of the doubt... at least until today...
itīs hard when you are half the country away and esp if where he claims to live is a rural area with practically no communication... really hard.. many poor people live there or not poor but very very scarce resources and little to no technology.. hence I bought the lacking stuff and wrecked cars (very old)...
my hopes are certainly lowering as each day has passed... I just had this dim light ahead and wanted to give every chance for it to be real...
it would be awful to be tricked like this and most like I was... but I am holding the little hope Iīve got on this to pull me through for whatever outcome...it is getting tiring and frustrating...
Oh my dear, I hope, hope, hope and pray that this turns out to be your dog. I am praying for you. What a nightmare. I so hope it is not a scam.
I never thought there was one persona capable of making me this frustrated and beyond POīd as this guy... Iīve never been this PO...:mad:
I called him he said he had this friend (again) that could do the favor but he had no gas either for such trip.. that if i could send him a deposit to cover gas expense.. yeah right.. and i still suck my thumb... I said for him to wait up that Iīll send someone over.. he said ok.. but be quick as Iīll be leaving in the afternoon for a job in another town (he was getting picked up by someone) and Iīll be gone for a few days...
I said ok.. itīs better if I go then so you donīt have to spend a dime on anything yet youīll still get the reward donīt worry... we hanged.. he called back a minute later saying in such mad voice (almost yelling) that how can they trust me if i didnīt sent him or his buddy cell minutes I probably wouldnīt pay if they gave me the dog... i said how can i not.. you ARE giving me the dog.. i canīt give you money like you want because what guarantee do i have that youīll even bring her over and you DO have.. the dog itself... he got madder and madder that if i didnpt trust him he couldnīt trust me either and that I had just today as he was leaving..
I asked and when will you be back.. he said it didnīt mattered as his wife was sick and tired of the dog and that I had until today to get her otherwise he was gonna kick her out to the street... (fumes going out of my head, still not my mouth)..
I went in rush mode and despite the fact it ALL says scam all over thereīs still apart saying what if... maybe itīs the part that believes in fairy tales but i had to do something... I managed to contact a friend of my hubby who lives a little closer and said heīd go over..
I called this freak again and told him to expect someone.. he said they better hurry as he would not wait.. I said why not they ARE on their way and you are getting payed (into my mind.. more than you do in a whole week you piece of sh!t).. and he hung up on me...
needless to say i called the guy doing me the favor and told him to not give him money until certain it was my dog (heīll be calling to be sure) and after i said what they guy told me he said.. donīt worry, weīll get the dog issue fixed first.. then weīll fix him... (meaning asskicking... thank you).. he so deserves it... if he has her, for being such an a$s and if doesnīt, for being such an as$
just thought to let you know...Iīll update as soon as I get a call from whoever..
Oh Isabel, steam is coming out of my ears as I type this:mad:
So do you have any idea if he even has Queeg? Keep us updated....
(((((((((HUGS)))))))))))) and prayers:love:
I only go by what he has said.. I asked if he really has her that I didnīt want to go over only for him to tell me he really didnīt and he said he did had her ... it all kinda points that he doesnīt with his actions but what if he does... (if someone doesnt comes to you to get payed not sure what else will motivate them enough:rolleyes::mad:) and even if itīs not Queeq.. Iīm sorry for whomever dog he has and is treated like that... either way the guy helping me is taking it from him.. one way or the other...
this people have no heart....
I hope to know in about an hour from now...
Wow, this guy is ridiculous!! I really hope it is Queeq and you get her back. But its sounding not very hopeful, to be honest. :(
Either way, I hope this guy gets what's coming to him. And that's NOT money!!!
Please be Queeq so she can come home!!!
I'm praying it IS Queeq. That jerk SOOOO deserves a good ass kicking, one for being such a stupid $%^& and the other for playing on your emotions. I'm glad to hear your friend will take the dog, regardless of whether it is Queeq or not. I'd fear for that dog's life.
Good luck. I'm praying for you!!
no need to say I told you so...
the guy doing me the favor called me and said such address DID exist but it was a candy shop.. adn they didnīt knew the as$... I had given him the phone in case he got lost or didnīt knew how to get there so he called but got no answer... I asked him to knock on nearby houses around the block and ask if they knew him or knew naything about a dog... no luck..
I called the MF and got straight to voice mail... he turned the phone off... I even called the so called friend, the one whoīs car broke down and it was also off, (my guess is he was expecting me to send minutes to both phones as well as gas money) the #$%& was playing all the way... I know revenge is not nice, but this is NOT staying as is... Iīll do whatever I can to track him down.. whatever it takes...
cellphones are unlisted but I HAVE to find a way.. I just HAVE to... he wonīt get away for playing with my emotions that way, even if it sounded as scam... he could have backed off when he knew I was not sending him any money at all.. sorry dude.. you met a wall right there... and soon youīll get what you deserve...
I am so sorry to read this update. I was hoping beyond hope that you would have your dear Queeq home with you. Hugs to you!
Oh, Isabel.....I am so so sorry. I was praying so hard that he did have Queeq. People are so cruel.
I am still sending prayers out in hopes that Queeq comes home to you safely.
(((HUGS))) even though they are not enough right now. :'(
That is just cruel. I'm so sorry about Queeq. He deserves whatever you give him. We're all behind you.
I am so sorry to read this update. :( I'm glad you didn't fall for the scam and send him money. He probably figured you were missing your dog so much (which you ARE) and would do anything. He didn't realize he was messing with one smart lady.
Please do not give up hope that Queeq is out there somewhere. I know I'm not.
that is horrible. That jerk! ugh! I hate people like that and that was just cruel to play someone like that. maybe you could call the police and let them know what he is up to? just a thought
I'm so sorry to hear this:( but I'm glad that you didn't give those scammers any money. I hope you'll be able to track them down. More prayers and positive thoughts are being sent for Queeq's safe return.
I'm sorry Isabel.:( I hope this guy rots in hell.:mad:
Isabel - no one would ever say "I told you so". I don't think there's a person here that wouldn't have done exactly as you did. I know for sure that I would have done the same - even if I thought in the back of my mind - that it could be a scam. I would have had to try......
What a cruel and heartless thing that he has done to you. He is truly a dirt bag, scum of the earth, low life. One day, he'll have to answer for what he did.
In the meantime, keep your hopes alive that you will be reunited with Queeg soon. Never give up....
{{{Hugs}}} and doggie kisses to you from the crew here in Delaware. :love:
thank you guys... I was and still am upset... but yesterday I called him back to give him a piece of my mind... the phone actually was on by then, he picked up and I told him why would he give me that phony address and he said who do you want to speak to?.. i said with you... he said who is this? and i said the person you supposedly have a dog of... and he said I donīt know you i just found this phone on the street... and i said.. come on really? and you think I wouldnīt recognize your voice mr.... and he said I have no clue what you are talking about, stop bothering me... needless to say the rest that came out of my mouth was not PG-13... Iīm pretty sure he didnīt saw that coming... his ears mustīve melted somehow..
but Iīll still figure a way and get back to him... if itīs not me it could have been someone else adn he might keep on doing it.. so I wonīt give up till i track him down...
and I will continue my search for my baby... just praying someone decent has her and returns her...

The effort you'll expend on chasing the scum-bag can be much more

We're all still WITH you on finding Queeq.
{{{Hugs}}} ;)
I was so angry when it happened to my friend and that was just a ring. I can't imagine what you are feeling with Queeq but I can promise you he never had your dog. He is just a classic scammer. How did he hear of Queeq anyway? The newspaper? From the way he described himself, it's hard to imagine him buying a newspaper. He would have milked every dollar he could have out of you and then disappeared. The "meet up" never would have happened.
These scammers just go through classified ads in the paper and online and call the desperate people and claim to have whatever it is they have lost. It must be their only source of income and they just spend their days calling their victims and trying to arrange for money to be sent to them. In my friends case, he sounded like the nicest guy in the world until she said "just so I don't get my hopes up only to find out that it's not my mothers ring, can you read me the inscription on the inside of the ring"...That's when he said "I just put it in the mail to you"...cursed and hung up. Of course, the ring never came but atleast she knew it wasn't coming.
They prey on the fact that most people will think "what if he DOES have it?" How can I let that go? That's why it's so good to ask them to identify one single part of the item, (whether it exists or not)...my friends ring didn't even have an inscription but the guy had no way to know that. IF he had said "I don't see one, maybe I have the wrong ring" then she would have known he actually had it but he panicked and hung up.
I will continue to pray that Queeq finds her way home to you.
I am so, so sorry that you have had to endure even more pain. Phred is right - this dirtbag doesn't deserve any more of your time or thoughts.
He WILL get his - don't you worry - Karma is strong!
Concentrate on a continued search for Queeg - we are all right here for you saying some prayers
Well said and I agree. I know you are angry Isabel....but you need to be the bigger person and let carma take care of him...cause it will.Quote:

Still praying for Queeg's safe return, and thinking of you daily, Isabel.:love:
MoonandBeam posted some EXCELLENT advice on scammers, and what to say/do if you come across one. I even learned a lot!:)
I would love to be there right now and get my hands on that guy. :mad: :mad: :mad:
Isabel, I'm so sorry. I agree with others in saying you did exactly what we all would have done. Any small ray of hope is better than none at all. Phred is right. Forget him. He is a worthless piece of trash. Frankly, he sounds like he's not all there and he could be dangerous.
I am keeping you and Queeq in my thoughts and prayers.
Come home Queeq!!!!!!!
I changed my Pet Talk calendar over the weekend. And there was little Queeq's picture. :D
That gave me hope that she should be home this month!!!
I still think about her every day, and you too Isabel.
What a great thought Cindy. Let's pray that it comes true! I too think of Queeg and Isabel every day, and pray for little Queeg's return.Quote:

not a day goes by that I donīt wish that was the day we meet again.. but as things have been moving.. Iīm starting to think that day will never be... Iīm sad beyond sadness, but being realistic itīs been over a month.. if someone has her either they are waaaay incommunicated or just donīt live in the area to notice sheīs a loved missing dog... or they just are determined to keep her...
I really donīt wanna give up.. but it seems everything is against us... I try to stay positive and keep my mind busy.. but everytime I get serious I burst in tears...
I am so sorry......we will keep saying prayers that Queeq returns. I wish there was more we can do to help you.....I am very sorry for the pain you are going through. (((HUGS)))
Just checking to see if you got the reading I sent you. Please don't lose hope - she is out there somewhere
Iīve been having connection problems and have a hard time accessing my mail.. either in yahoo or hotmail.. not sure why.. I really still have hope.. I dream a lot of finding her very close to home (where she vanished)...Quote:
