I responded to an add for two English Bulldog puppies on Craigslist. The owner Amanda Tyra said her daughter Bella had died in a car crash six weeks ago and they were her puppies. Now everytime she sees the puppies it reminds her of her dead daughter and was too painful for her to keep them. She sent pictures to me via email of both puppies and pics of her family. She also provided the entire story Via email along with the same questions you see in all these other scammers. She refused three times to allow us to come pick the dogs up and insisted on shipping them for their welfare. After numerous text messages and her even offering to pay half the shipping to get them to us the same day, we started wondering (scammer). I did some checking and her ad showed she and the dogs were in Owensboro KY, She told me she was in Baltimore MD, Her phone number is an Arizona phone number and her IP address from her email she sent was in California.....Seriously! All she was interested in was us sending her money ASAP and even asked how much we had that day and she could work something out. The pics of the pups are on several sites where she is running the same scam and on pedigree sites which she took them from. During our text messages I asked her if she would send pics of her daughter with the pups so I would know she existed. She became angry and demanded I tell her if I had the money that day for the shipping or the conversation was over. I assured her I had the money so she sent two pics, one of a girl around 8 with a face cut off holding an english bulldog, the other was a woman supposedly her holding up the other, problem is she was not the woman in the original pics of the family she sent. I spent two day searching every database for a young girls tragic death in June 2016 with and without the name Bella...NOTHING nowhere in the USA. I ran a check on Amanda Tyra NOTHING....nowhere, she does not exist. the only one I found was African American and she is white. She still has a current ad up on Craiglist for the puppies in owensboro ky. Buyers beware They never got a dime of our money but they will yours if you dont look out for this ongoing scam with all breeds.

Last week my boyfriend and I were looking for a boxer puppy. We came to a site ware we found an 11 weeks old male puppy that we fell in love with. We have contacted the seller about the puppy and he has set us pictures of the litter of puppiess so we told him which 1 we want and he told us that the puppy will cost $500 and $100 for shipping so we said that sounds good. He told us that we would have to send him western union it to Maryland and we did. We told him that we were going away for the weekend and would like him to ship him on Saturday so we can pick him up on Sunday. The seller has contacted us and told us that he would need to ship the dog a day early and still get it on Sunday and we said ok. Then the seller told us that we will get a email of the time and ware to pick it up so we got a email stating that the dog will be shipped to the airport at 4:30 and will be their for 5:30 and picked up at 6:30 that was a red flag. Then we got another email saying that the pet travel has the puppy and that it doesn't have insurance on it and that we would need to send $2400 for the dog insurance. I told my boyfriend that is a fraud. He didn't want to believe it at first. He had to here it from others just to know it was a fraud. We have phone calls recorded, emails, text messages and phone number from them too. We have asked them if we can come and get the dog and they said no cause they still need dog insurance for the puppy.

Beware of

Beware of seller peterbrooke555 advertising adoption of pembroke welsh corgis. They initially seem caring about rehoming their pets. They quickly give u a price of $350 to Ship the puppy to your door. They state they will use ""u-ship" to deliver the puppy and the 350$ is paid directly to Uship ($200 for shipping and $150 for he adoption fee of the puppy) ... Beware this advertiser

After reading our local newspaper (from a very small town), I sent an email regarding 2 Yorkshire Terrier Puppies that were listed as free. The email went to revtonybrown@gmail.com. And I am so thankful that I found your sight showing all of the different stories of what happened to other people. The first email from the seller asked for my personal info (name, address & phn) they wanted the closest airport to me I gave two airports in two different towns. So the second email said that the puppies could be mine all I had to pay was the shipping. But since they knew that I would take good care of their "babies" that they would pay $350 and that I would just need to pay $600. I told them that I couldn't afford it and they counter offered to pay all but $50.
Anyway thank you so much for your website and warn others about Rev Tony Brown and his House of the Lord Scam.

Buyer

I was speaking to a Christopher Mandengue at *******@gmail.com stating about an English bulldog coming out of Houston but needed me to wire money gram to weslaco Texas. The phone number listed in the ad was from Georgia. we offered to drive a few hours to pick up the pup instead of shipping him. Needless to say there were plenty of excuses and getting yanked around that I called out the scammer and did not get my sweet puppy. I named dropped so others can be on the aware!

Buyer

I sent $350.00 for a teacup yorkie and had contact with david.howard12@yahoo.com and we sent $350.00 western union and was promised a puppy and went to the airport to retrieve the puppy and she was not there when we got home to find out that I had received a email requesting more money and that we was not going to be getting a puppy. I had originally had found this add in the daily paper.

Buyer

I was scammed for two yorkie puppies that were suppose to be free. The ad was in our local newspaper. I e-mailed sam.leonards01@googlemail.com. Got this message from The House of the Lord. Same pitiful story about them being missionaries and the weather being bad in Nigeria. I felt sorry for the dogs and not knowing of this kinda of scam I went through with the deal. But they kept coming for more money. feranadzpetdelivery@expressivemail.com said I needed money for shipping taxes in London. The whole deal cost me$1600 for free puppies I never received. Do you know that about every week or so the newspaper runs ads for puppies that are from this Nigerian scam group.I check them out and call the paper every time to get it taken out. I hope I can save some other person from these people.

Buyer

I was on the verge of being scammed. This would have been the second time. I was looking for a teacup puppy online and seen an ad. I emailed the lady about the teacup yorkie puppies and she emailed me back telling me that she had already sold the puppies, but I emailed her just in time because the person she sold them to was unable to care for them anymore because she was doing missionary work in West Africa. She told me to email the lady and tell her that she referred me to her, but I had second thoughts about it so I did not email her. But a day later I had received an email from the lady in West Africa. She first emailed me saying..

From Scammer

Hello
I am Mrs Reverend Lisa Smith. I was directed to you from the breeder of my puppies that you are interested in them. I really appreciate and God bless you for your interest. I got my puppies from the breeder while i was in the state. But i got transferred to west Africa on a missionary work of Almighty God. I have been praying to my living GOD to get a carring home for my wonderful puppies and i strongly believe you are my answered prayer. I also give thanks to the breeder that directed me to you. They are full breed. They are 2 months old and akc registered, Vet check, health certificate and health guarantee. All their shots are up to date. I got transfered to west Africa recently and could not take care of the babies anymore. I want a great home for them because they are my real babies. They are 100% healthy and i don't want anything to happen to them. That is why i want to get them out soon. The weather here is not conducive for them. I will be very happy if you will be one to take them as your babies. I have male and his name is Andy while the female name is Kate, they are both very good with kids and other animals very well and love to play a lot this is one of their many character, I never wanted to sell them but the weather here in West Africa is not helping matter at all. If you are interested kindly get back to me asap so that the babies can be on their way to their new home as soon as their shipping arrangement is concluded! They will be giving to you free. You will only pay for their shipping fee which is $300 each so the two is $600. See their picture on attachment.
Get back to me soon and let me know if you are interested.
Thank you and GOD bless you.

Buyer

I did not reply, and two days later she emailed me again. so I replied. Here is our conversation..

I am so sorry. I cannot get the part of the possiblity of being scammed. I would only be able to go through with this deal if I was able to receive the puppies first and I know you are not willing to do that. I really am sorry for the trouble. As bad as I want these puppies, I cannot take that big of a risk. I would be loosing $400 if this deal did not go through as expected. Once again, I am so sorry.

I probably would be able to afford one or both of them depending on how low you are willing to go for the price of them. I really feel that I can give them the best home, but I don't feel 100% sure that I will receive the puppies on behalf of the many scams I have heard about. I am dearly and deeply interested in them. I just have the problem of not knowing if I am guaranteed them.

She never emailed me back after that. Afterwords, I decided to do a little investigation and googled; Reverend Lisa Smith in West Africa; and I found out that she has scammed many people, so I decided to tell my story also.

Buyer

I did a search for Kentucky English bulldogs and was shown a Kentucky.com site which took me to Lexington Herold adds (newpaper) I emailed several people getting one back who said he had no more pups but he knew a reverend who was in Africa doing mission work who had to get rid of her English bulldog pups because she was too busy doing work with her church and he gave me her email address revmrsslisasmith@aol.com. I emailed her and she emailed me back saying she had two pups left one male one female and sent pics. She said her church wanted her to give the pups free so all I needed to do was pay shipping charges $400. and sent gave me a name Sandra and Sandra's email address xandriakretschmer@yahoo.com as well as the woman's adress 5450 Monterey Rd San Jose, Ca 95111 saying to contact her for a refeence. I did and of course this Sandra gave Lisa a great reference. Lisa sent me the information to money gram her the money to Nigera. Her name was Lisa Smith. After I sent the money she called me saying that she had discovered that she needed a shipping crate to ship the pup and that she would try to get one then she calls me a day later saying that I would need to send her $300 so she could buy crate. I told her I didn't have it and she said she could see if anyone at her church would give her money. She called me back saying she could only get $100 and that I needed to see about getting the rest. I was already sure by now that it was a scam. I told her I could not get the money and that either she find a way to send pup or give me my money back. She called me two or three more times trying to get money from me even having a man who was supposedly her travel agent trying to get me to send the money. I told them no thta I just wanted my money back and I emailed Lisa Smith telling her tnat either I get my money back or I would go to the police and of course, I haven't heard from her again. Now I am out $400 and I wanted to warn people even though if they are like me they aren't going to think to look up scams before looking to buy a dog.

I inquired on a Maltese late yesterday afternoon. This morning, I had received a response, and I replied. After the second email, I began getting curious. The gentleman was a little too eager to give up his "baby". When he called, he was insistent upon the "shipping fee" from Nigeria to my home in Portland, but was not concerned about the other $200 in "adoption fees". I had also checked my computer for the time zones and current time in Lagos, and his response when I asked him what time it was turned out to be 2 hours shy of the time showing on the World Clock. Fortunately, I had the excuse of "My Husband said he is not comfortable sending money for something he can't physically pick up today" left in my back pocket!

The correspondence went as followed...

Buyer

Do you still have the Maltese advertised in the Oregonian? If so, can you provide more details? My father has recently retired and is looking for a new friend. He has expressed interest in a puppy since our family Sheltie died of old age 10 years ago, but hasn't put any effort into finding one. He was still working and was afraid he wouldn't be able to give a puppy enough attention.

Thank you.

Mark,

Thank you for getting back to me. Yes, we would provide your baby with a very good home. We are an old farming family, and we value our pets as "children". At the moment, my parents have two indoor cats who rule the house! We have a few pets of our own who are also treated with great care.

Does your little girl have a name? How is she handling the traveling? In our family, we do a lot together, so we would carry her in our Land Rover with our 5 year old Westie when we travel back and forth to the Coast and between my parents' house in Eugene and our house in Vancouver, WA.

I will have to talk to my husband about spending this type of money, though, before I can make a definite commitment. Are you okay with giving me a couple of days to do this? Do you know how long it will take to ship her?

Regards,
Christina

Mark,

I am typing with my sister (she lives in Bakersfield, CA) about the pup. We are trying to see if we have the money to have her shipped right away. At the time being, I could cover one or the other without too much trouble, but both the shipping and the cost of the baby would be hard on our pocketbook this payday (darn cost of gas keeps pushing up the price of groceries!) and would not be something I can do until next payday, which is the 20th. I am checking to see if my sister wants to help me buy her for Dad.

Thank you for your patience!

Not scammed - because I read here first -but just want to post this warning. I answered an ad in the Washington Post about an ad for an English Bulldog. Here's the email exchange:

Me:

Do you have any puppies left? Age? M/F? Pictures?
Thanks!

Response from Mike Stead [steadm97@yahoo.com]

Hello,
The puppy is AKC Registered, has all shots upto date and she's vet checked. But unfortunately, he's just
been adopted, some minutes ago by Mr. Richard, and i was just been contacted by one of my customer that i
sold some puppies to who mailed me just now to inform me that they are looking for a caring person to
adopt their puppies.

His name is Evangelist Mac cleans, he called me that he had been transfered to West africa on a
christian mission, due to his immediate relocation, he went with his wife, and also had his puppies
with him overthere.

His commitment to the work of God could not enable him to stay with the puppies often according to his,
and that the climatic condition of the country is too harsh for the puppies health, so he needs a caring
parent who can adopt the babies back to the United State of America as soon as possible.

he will provide the shipping agent to have the puppies shipped back to you and you will only be paying for
the shipping fee. I suggest you contact him soon as possible Via Email: maccleans95@yahoo.com

he will be very much delightfull to hear from you, so as to have this puppies shipped to you asap.

he requested, a caring and loving parent for his babies and i am so sure he will be so excited if he knows
I directed you to him. Kindly notify me immediately the babies are adopted.
Best Regards

Me:

If I see some photos, get information as to age, health, etc. and am contacted directly by your previous customer I will consider handling this without seeing them.
Thanks,

His response:

Thanks for the mail,I want you to contact him asap he will supply with all details you need.

I didn't respond after that. I read about similar scams on this site. Watch out Virginia Marylany & D.C.!

Buyer

I recently answered an add from a man regarding the adoption of his female yorkie. I asked ALOT of questions and he sounded like he was legitate, he said it would only cost me $130.00 dollars to get her here and he would take care of the rest. I sent him the money via money gram. Then I eceived another from I'm guessing a fake email address or someone linked to him continetal airlines But there was no logo or lonk attache which I found suspicious he neede 450.00 more dollars to send he for insurance and crate insurance. I told him I didn't have the money. And he insisted I send it so she could come to a good home, I still told him I didn't have it. I was then sent an email from someone else claiming that they were going to report me to the police for trying to buy a dog online, I then told them I contacte the local police and a lawyer. They told me that they wanted my lawyers name and information. I'm still getting emails from this person claiming theyare going to report me, what the heck are they going to report me for they are the one's who took my money!

Bulldog Scam

About two months ago I went online to search for an English Bulldog. I found one that I liked and it was surprisingly cheap. I was told that I would only need the send $180. I sent the $180 for the puppy then I was told to send $420. I sent the $420 also because I knew that those dogs were expensive. Then I was told of another charge of $350 so I paid that also. Then after that I was told to send I think $3000. That's where I drew the line and knew I made a mistake. I was told I wouldn't ever get the money I sent back.

Buyer

I was almost scammed similar to the other stories I read.
I inquired about a Yorkie for sale and the lady contacted me and told me she had just sold the pup to a lady who had moved to Nigeria just two days before. She stated she needed to find a new home for the pups because the weather was not suitable for the "babies" . I was told that all I was going to be asked to pay is just the $80.00 crate cost, and that she would pay for the flight to get them to me. I was instructed to send her my
address
phone number
which airport I was closest to and basically just ALL my personal information. The same day later in the night, I had gotten another response from a separate inquiry that matched the same story I had already heard from the first inquiry, demanding the same info as before. I knew that something was not right so I did some research and found that this happens a lot. I almost got scammed out of 180.00 I just wanted to Share my story and possibly help others.

We were looking for another puppy in the adds and found the one below. We almost fell for it before doing a lot of research I decided to be on the cautious side.

Buyer

Hi there,
My name is Ashlee and I saw your ad on AZCentral about a Yorkie puppy. My fiancé and I are looking for another Yorkie to add to our home right now (we currently have a five month old Yorkie boy). We are looking for a girl and I noticed that your ad mentioned the puppy is great with other animals, which is exactly what I'm hoping for! If you could contact me with further information, I'd really appreciate it. Please feel free to respond to me at this e-mail address or contact me at xxx-xxx-xxxx or my fiancé Mark at xxx-xxx-xxxx.
Thanks so much and I look forward to hearing from you!

Kind regards,
Ashlee

Thanks

Buyer

Thanks for your quick response! We are definitely interested in your puppy! I assure you that we will take great care of your puppy--our current dog is pretty much our child and we would treat your little girl the same! I am not sure when you can send her, but if we were able to pick her up from the airport on Friday around 6pm or after that would be fantastic (that way we have the next four days off work to spend with her and help her adjust to her new home!) If not, we can do our best to be flexible with you.

The nearest airport is Phoenix Sky Harbor Airport.

A few quick questions: How would you like your payment of $250? Also, what brand of food are you currently feeding her? I'd like to make sure that I have the same kind on hand for her prior to her arrival! We have also never picked up an animal from the airport, so a bit of direction as to what to do would be helpful.

I very much look forward to hearing from you. Thank you for everything!

Response from Seller - Sent 3 times exact same response

Hello Ashlee thanks for your response i want you to know that am so
happy to read from you and i want you to keep to your promise by
taking a very good care of my puppy as soon as you reciev her at your
location regarding the shipping i want you to know that your shipping
information as being forwarded to the shipping agent and it as being
confirmd by him the flight schcule is as follow you will be picking
her up at the Phoenix Sky Harbor Airport by 7:20pm on friday and you
will be picking her up at the cargo section in the airport as soon as
she is shipped out i will be getting back to you with the flight
details which you will need in picking her up and also i will like to
know when you will be making the payment because you will be making
the payment through western union money transfer and i will need to
get back to you with the shipping agent payment information which you
will need to make the payment so below mis the food samples on how i
feed her.

laims

Elkunuba and palp so for better feeding the puppy will be accompany
along with her helath document crate and her food saples so you can
know the best way in feeding her.

Thanks

Buyer

Thanks for all the great information! We are ready to pay ASAP, but I was a bit confused though if you are going to give me your account number for me to transfer the money to or if the shipping agent will be contacting us about the payment method. Either way, let me know and I will take care of it right away.

I'll make sure to send you updates and pictures through e-mail, that way you can still see your puppy, even though she is with us! I can't imagine how much worry you are filled with trying to find a good home. It is truly scary, some of the things you hear about pet owners these days.

One more quick question, will she be coming with a crate? I'd like to make sure we are prepared for her ride home (luckily only about 15 minutes away from the airport!) And thanks for the food samples, that will definitely help!

I look forward to everything. Thanks again!

Hello this is Ashlee's fiancé,

After spending a lot of time doing research there have been a lot of scams using western union money transfers to John Matthew in the same area in Africa. Something just doesn't feel right and I want to cover all my basis.

Thank You,

Bulldog anyone?

I have been interested in buying a English bulldog, and look in the local newspaper's classified ads on a regular basis. I noticed a really cute picture of a bulldog puppy and the price was only $450!!!! I thought it was an unbelievable steal, so I called the phone number listed, and to my disappointment, the number was not a working number.  So i then emailed the seller and asked them more info about the puppy, and this is the email I received back:

She is still very much available for new home.She is 13 weeks old,She is AKC registered and her shots are given up to date.All her papers will accompany her, But right now i am in africa on a Christain mission with my wife and we have her right here with us.we are going to ship her to you via Express pets delivery on next day delivery after shippment through a shipping agent ,The Adoption fee is $200 and shipping is $150 and payment should be made through any western union local store arround you.if you are interested in having her, i want you to get back to me with your full name,address,phone number including the nearest airport to you.Please if you know that you are not going to take very good care of my baby do not reply me becuase i am only giving her out becuase we dont have time to take care of her again due to the mission work before us here.

This all sounded weird and i told her no thanks

Not just the internet:

"I recently found an ad in my local newspaper regarding the adoption of a English Bulldog.  I replied to this ad by using an e-mail address that was   given. Janet.morgan00@yahoo.com. Shortly there after I received a e-mail from a George Christian saying that he is a reverend that was sent on a mission in West Africa."

From a buyer who was ripped off

"I purchased a yorkie pup on line 2 weeks ago. After wiring $300 (that included shipping) I was asked for $170 more for a shipping crate which I sent. Next, while waiting at the airport for my pup, I was contacted saying another $150 was needed for insurance. When confronted with my suspicion of fraud, I never heard from this person again and have not received a refund. It was a hard lesson to learn, and, an embarrassing one. I was warned about this kind of scam, but my nature of trusting people made me proceed. I want to continue with my trust of people, but will never purchase like this on line again!"

From Scammer

Hello,
You are a bit late, I just sold the baby you saw on the ads. But you can contact one of my buyers that bought puppies from me. He is Evangelist Chris Cole he just contacted me that he is now in west africa for a missionary work and he went there with the two puppies she recently bought from me. According to him, his commitment with God`s work did not give him the needed time he needs to be with the puppies, also the weather there is so harsh for the puppies health and he needed a caring parent who can adopt the babies back to the state asap.
His parents stands 4.2 inches tall, she weighs 4 ounces. of the shots are currently up to date.
Below is his email address, contact him and request for the puppies he needs a parent for. he will be very happy if he knows you are from me.
Write Evangelist Chris cole on: evangelis_chriscole@yahoo.com

Get back to me when you adopt the babies
