Scammers
The scammers are still out there and they are looking for their next victim. I have seen on other websites such as NSTRA.org that people with pups or dogs for sale have contacted trying to buy their dogs with cashiers checks. They send you a cashiers check for more than the purchase price and want you to send them the difference. The only problem is that the check is no good and you get screwed. I have a litter for pointer pups for sale and i got a phone call from one of these scammers tonight. The lady that called said that she was calling from an internet service that provided services for the deaf or hard of hearing. She said that she relay the message that the call typed and then relay my message to the caller. They really didn't ask any questions about the pups like bloodline, how many femalesor males, they just wanted to know if i would take cashiers check. After i told the caller that the pups had to be picked up at my home and paid for in cash the caller hang up. Just wanted to let everyone that dishonest people will try anything to make a dollar.
You dont like the scammers? lolsnips wrote:I earned he hard way never to use my email in an ad. I use my website or phone no.
Lets all thank grant he doesnt give out our emails im sure he has been contacted by companies for them and them saying they will pay. I know the admins on some other sites have. my Discus forum is one of them.
The same people called me and I told them to send me the check. Then I told them my name was spelled wrong on the check and if they would give me their address I would send it back. They would not (wonder why) and that was the end of our conversation. I bet they were mad I got to waste their time.

Had a new scam tactic last night at 11:30pm.. The got my cell number from an online classified ad selling pups. The called some type of operator that would read their instant message to me and then the operator would type them a message from me back to them. They said they wanted to buy a pup and wanted me to email them all the details, as they were ready to buy. I say if you can't talk to me in person, you should have a pup. Certainly this is a crime? Even your phone isn't safe any longer!
