Scams

[Lori Jordan]

BullDogs are never free there thousand of dollars!A friend of mine inquired on one and they said the dog had to be shipped from Cameron Africa?I think it was...

[buttercup132]

Yea that's what I thought. I heard all the scams are based from countries like that latley. I think the Bulldog one is gone now, I e mailed them but they never got back to me.

This has scam written all over it. I'm quite used to these being as they often target us artists too.

The grammar is a bit off so the persons English isn't overly great. Also, scammers do have the habit of saying god bless to you and your family at the end and always mention something to hurry you along like "as soon as possible", among other things they often come out with by default. Shipping is also one the commonest things that they use to scam you as well.

Also, they don't seem to care who they are sending Jennifer to. They just seem to be trying to offload double quick. If they were genuine, they'd be asking what sort of a home you could offer and being more sure as to where the dog was going to be going before thinking about shipping and all that.

There are tons of scams around here, reguarding Bulldogs!! You see one on craigslist weekly!!

I didn't even read all the way through it and that was the very first thing that caught my attention. If someone want to make some money from something, the least they could do is use proper English and do a spell check. If not then I don't read any further.

Just a way to make a quick buck. There is NO dog, puppy, cat, pet of any sort. They just collect checks, money orders etc. We get them alot on craigslist here as well

I emailed in one day four different people, a couple about chihuahuas and a couple about maltese and all four came back with a similar email about them being out of the country for one reason or another and now need to find homes for them. All had very poor grammar and all were about the money you would be sending them. Sad, some people just make me sick.
