William/ Willy puppy scammer claims to be a missionary in Africa Internet
I was looking for a french bulldog puppy on livedeal.com and found a cream female named Jesi. The price was very reasonable. The picture of the puppy was very small, so I e-mailed William/ Willy for new recent pictures.
William sent new photos but they were still icon size and the picture looked as though a professional photographer had taken it. I then received an e-mail from livedeal.com that this persons account had been suspended and to dicontinue any contact with this person.
Luckily I didn't loose any money but hope to help others identify a scam. This person says he's a missionary in Nigeria, Africa and the hot weather is too hard on his 10 week old french bulldog Jesi. He states she's can be over nighted via Delta first pet airline and all for $600.
The price of the dog should raise the first red flag as these purebred dogs run $1000 to $3000. Be very careful when buying off the internet and insist on real life photos along with pictures of the parents if possible. The AKC lists reputable breeders. It is also safest to use a broker when possible or a credit card (so you can dispute the charge if items aren't received. I would never use a money order or cashiers check!
