fraggle 4 Posted December 29, 2009 Report Share Posted December 29, 2009 i'm picket a whippet up on saterday, but before i spoke to him i sent a email to a person in london who said they had some whippet puppies, now remeber i said she advertised for london. The pups where up for 200 pound. this is the reply i got Hello there, Thanks for your interest in this lovely male and female babies i have for re homing. They are Nine (9) weeks old. They are still available and ready to go .. KC registered with all shots,vaccines and vet records updated. They have great personality and good temperaments with kids and other pets. I would like to ask you some few questions if you do not mind. 1....Where are you located precisely? 2...Which sex are you interested in male or female? 3...How soon do you want the puppy? We live in Aberdeen Scotland, but if you can't come up to Aberdeen then i will have to arrange for a home delivery service that will get the puppy delivered over to your home without any problems and that will cost you in total £200 for the puppy including the delivery charges and papers, so kindly get back to me with the details bellow; FULL NAMES.................................... YOUR CITY..................................... POST CODE...................................... YOUR HOME ADDRESS..................................... HOME NUMBERS........................................... MOBILE NUMBERS......................................... These information will be taken along with the Puppy and all it's papers to the delivery agency and the delivery agency will later contact you regarding the payment and when the Puppy will be delivered over to your home without any problem. The £200 you will be paying will be for the puppy and the delivery charges including the papers.Puppies also come with the following papers; # Health guarantee # Vaccine record # KC registration papers # Microchip Registration # Pedigree # Nutrition supplement # Traveling Crate Regards and waiting for your kind respond. now from reading all the free ads the averedge kc registered pup goes for 300 pound up. they are offering kc reg, the pup and delivery for 200 pound from aberdeen.

Shoot 0 Posted December 30, 2009 Report Share Posted December 30, 2009 There are a lot of people applying identity theft scams at the moment. This sounds very much like one.... offering something that's too good to be true, missleading info to get you interested, asking for some basic info to get you interestded, then they'll want card details .... then you fooked!
