Buyers Beware

Puppy purchase scams are not new but are now affecting buyers in the UK.

A family from Fife saw ACD puppies advertised free to good homes from Orkney. They rang the number and were told the pups were free because the breeders were unable to sell them, being so far away. All that was requested was the cost of the shipping which was to be paid to Western Union. The family were sent pictures of pups, selected one and duly paid the £200. Needless to say no pup has appeared. They have put the matter in the hands of the fraud squad as it seems the "breeders" are actually in Kenya and goodness knows where the puppy pictures came from. It has always been a case of "Buyers Beware" and sadly even today the situation is no different.

What a Fantastic Funday!
