Carbriken Posted March 9, 2014 Report Share Posted March 9, 2014 Just hope nobody falls for the scammer on the pet page looking to 'rehome' french bulldogs. Out of interest I contacted them and got reply below. Why on earth they would place an ad in Shetland when they are in London for one and two they cant talk on the phone due to an accident... ahem This is 100% a scam so hope nobody is fooled. They will ask for you to pay a deposit or something to either have them delivered or kept till you are able to collect and you will never see the money again!! If you google the home number it also springs up adverts on boards in LA, America and other countries, must be desperate to 'rehome' those pups... I had too much time on my hands.. sorry [** mod edit ** - removed text to stop it being picked up in searches and attracting spammers] Acid 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trout Posted March 9, 2014 Report Share Posted March 9, 2014 Thanks for pointing this out. The 'Report' button on the actual classified advert itself can be pressed in the future and that will come through to the moderators to verify / remove etc. Carbriken 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scorrie Posted March 10, 2014 Report Share Posted March 10, 2014 Scammer baiting ought to be an Olympic sport IMO. Carbriken and Acid 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
