Marie L Pablo Valencia French Bulldog Scammer!! Lakeland, Florida

Adrienne, Brandon, FL
I searched on Oodle.com for French Bulldogs for sale. I came across an add of two chocolate colored puppies so I sent a text to the number associated with the ad. I got a reply about 2 hours later, the person said the dogs were still available and told me to email for additional information. So I sent an email with several questions that I had about the puppies and said I was interested. I got a reply about 10 mins later with what appeared to be a scripted email with all of these questions and information.
The sender claimed not to be a breeder but said his wife was. He said his wife recently died in a surgery gone bad and needed to find a loving home for the puppies. I have inserted the original email from the scammer below:
"You might be wondering why i am giving the puppies for adoption .
Firstly i will like you to know a little about me, I am an Electrical Engineer and not a breeder.The person who was breeding these puppies
was my wife but i lost her a couple of months ago in a surgery operation.
I had no intention in selling these puppies but i have to give the puppies away since i don't have time to take proper care of
them .The litter was made up of six puppies but i have succeeded in given away four of them so there are just two left now a male and a
female .they will go only to loving and approved homes.
Well rehoming any of these puppies means you are taking him or her for an everlasting home. I had them listed first at $800 each and had many
responses but then no one carried through. I have now lowered the price because i need them re homed as soon as possible.. They will go
for $400 .. including delivery to you will cost $400...."
I was also sent several pictures of the said puppies. I will post them. The pictures are what made me suspicious. I thought they looked copied and too professional. Just didn't look right. So I did an image google search and came across another ripoff report where someone actually paid this person money and never receieved the puppies. I feel bad for those people!!!!
