Scams selling or giving away non-existent animals, often Puppy Scams.
#59942 by Rob12345 Mon Jul 25, 2011 12:41 pm
Well, partner was looking to buy a Husky and contacted someone on muamut.com. Received this as first correspondence:

Hiya
thanks for mailing regarding my babies they are still available,i have three remaining that is two girls and one boy,they are 11weeks old they have very good temperament with kids and other house hold pets.They are kc registered and health guarantee they are update in all shot and they will be coming along side with all their health papers and as well with their vet record as well has their feeding hand book.I am not selling the dogs but all you will need to pay is just the re homing and the delivery fee.That is if you are not closer to me.First i will like to let you know that is very unfortunate that i cant look after the puppies any longer due to the mobile nature of my new job,so i believe you understand while i am given out these puppies because i cant cope.
these litter of puppies were six but i have already given three of the puppies out and now there are remaining just three,
please kindly Provide answers to the
following questions if you are really serious about adopting these
beautiful puppies..........

-which breed are you interested in adopting?
-Have your ever own this breed of puppy before?
-Why are you interested on this breed?
-Do you want to adopt one or both?
-what sex are you interested in taking?
-how soon do you want it,
-Were are you located,
-please get back to me as soon as possible


waiting to read from you.

Obviously "waiting to read from you" Rang some alarm bells.

After an answer back from myself, I receive this:

HELLO
thanks for your kind response to my answer i am a little bit
convince that you will take great care of these puppies or puppy.
i will like to ad some qualities of the puppies that i did not mention
in the previous mail
-they are house Trained .
-they are socialized with kids and other house hold pets
-they get angry when you shout at them, so don't do that.
-they are 11 Weeks old
-they barks when they sees strangers
they will be coming along side with all details of vaccination ,
de-wormed and microchip.
Since you made up your mind in having these puppies or puppy i will
let you have them but you must promise me to take great care of these
puppies or puppy as your child
and you will be sending me update and monthly pictures on how the
puppy or puppies will be doing in his new home,
i just relocated to Belfast Ireland due to the mobile nature of my job
i will be very glad if you can come here to view them but if you are
not so close to me then we shall use the pet courier service (delivery
company)
and they will get the puppies delivered right to your home address
that you will provide to me i adore the service of the delivery
company because they are so fast
After the registration i will provide you
the puppy registration number ok.remember i told you that the litter of
these pups were six three of the pups are in Bradford and the where
delivered by this same courier and now a the moment there are
remaining three one male and two females,
so now you are going to send me your full delivery details so that i
will drive to the delivery company and go get the puppies or puppy
registered t be delivered over to your home
Also i shall require all your details to do the change of ownership papers and
the details are as follow.
Full names........
House address..........
City.......................
Zip code.......................... ..
Home number...................
Mobile number...................
Breed.......................
email address.............

Immediately these details will be given to me i will drive to the
delivery company and go get the puppies or puppy registered to be
delivered over to your address that is i will register the puppies for
an urgent delivery
do get back to me with the details so i can
prepare the change of ownership papers and do the delivery
registration with the Carrier.Okay so i shall be waiting your
delivery details i want to let you know that if these details is given
to me now i will call on my vet doc to make a change of the ownership
documents that is from my names to your names
Okay so you will be paying just £90 this is the delivery fee for one
dog, to the delivery company and that is directly to them and not to
me and the delivery for two dogs will be £250 and for three dogs you
will pay £450 so that is all you are required to pay so that they
proceed delivery to your home okay
And also I will send all the relevant paper works
via the
Currier service so you will be paying directly to them and not to me
because my main objective is for these puppies to have a lovely and
forever family.In the morning ok to hear from

delivery of one puppy.
Puppies also come with the following papers;
# Health guarantee
# Vaccine record
# KC registration papers
# Microchip Registration
# Pedigree
# Nutrition supplement
# Traveling Crate

I then give fake details to push this a little further, then receive this:

company and the registration of the puppies are completed so here is the company's phone number

07023045526 please call them now to ask how your dogs are secured okay then get back to me.

Welcome to Scamwarners. That's a typical example of the pet scam. Shiply Ltd looks genuine, but scammers often misuse the identities of real businesses. I'll check it out on the Companies House website ASAP. Its search function is down,

#59947 by jolly_roger Mon Jul 25, 2011 2:18 pm
Well done Rob12345 on reporting this scam group. The phone number mentioned 07023045526 can be seen here dating back to Jan 2010 http://www.fraudwatchers.org/forums/sho ... 294&page=7
All the info is on pages 6 & 7.
Then this page has an entry dated 31 March 2011 towards the base of the page, http://petshippingblog.blogspot.com/200 ... fraud.html
The phone number also reveals several other scam hits.
Apparently this gang of scammers have been active for a couple of years.

Hi thank you for your very kind comments on my family and home, we are glad we have managed to put you at ease and we hope he will be very happy here too. If you ever feel you need to check on how hes growing please don't hesitate to ask us anytime feel free to jot down our address, number and email address. We wouldn't be able to make payment until the 26th of this month hope that is ok with you so if you contact delivery agency and find out the soonest date they can deliver him after payment is made but we would prefer for him to be delivered on the 28th of January then both my parter children and myself would be able to be with him all day and he would then have a few days to climatize his self before we would be up and down to school and my partner going to work and wouldn't need to leave him alone or take him on an adventure to school before he is settled and comfortable with his new family and home for the first 2 days.
Many Thanks

We are so glad that you have been put at ease that rocky will have a safe and loving home with us. We would like to tell you a little bit more about why we want a dog and what type of family we are. obviously we have 2 children a 5 year old boy who loves all animals just not creepy crawlies lol and a 1 year old daughter who has just started out walking so is perfect timing to get a puppy because as she grows in confidence with walking the more me and her will be able to go out with him during the day whilst my son is at school and my partner at work.
Rocky would be walked onto school in a morning when I take my little boy which is around trip of about 3/4 of an hours long and then would be walked on for him on an afternoon, as well as that me and my daughter go out during the day and my partner would walk him on a night. We quite often as a family go to our local reservoir on a Saturday I have attached a few photos of us there and I just know rocky would love going walking around it.

I have attached some photos of our children and us and our cats and are surrounding area when it snows and I'm sure that Rocky would love the amount of snow we actually do get when it snows lol just like my kids love it even if I don't. I have also attached some photos of our house and garden for you I hope this makes you feel at ease of where he is going. Also I would like to say that if at any point you would like to contact us to find out how he is doing and growing and would like photos of him growing we wouldn't mind at all even if you don't feel you want to now and change your mind in a years time we would still be comfortable with you contacting us then.


Delivery Details ...........

Hello There,
Thank you for your quick response to our inquiry. We as a family are very interested so to answer your questions and any other information is no problem at all.

We live in a quiet rural type village with plenty of running fields around us are exact address is removed - CW if you would like to look on Google maps you will see our property and surrounding area.
We would prefer the male (rocky) just because we already have 2 female cats me and my daughter and then my son and partner so would even up the numbers somewhat. We would like the puppy as soon as possible but obviously once your ok with pictures provided and information given however I would not be able to make payment until or after the 26th January as this is when my partners wage comes in. We have no problem in sending photos though but wanted to check what photos you would like can send some of me and my partner children and cats if you would like and some of garden and living room kitchen hallway/stairs etc. If there is any other information that you feel you need please don't hesitate to ask. Could we possibly ask you for a few photos of rocky to show my children to get them use to him before he comes as he would already be quite overwhelmed so wouldnt want 2 very excited children in his face. If the photos and information is ok and you decide we are what you are looking for, (for rocky ) then we could sort out delivery information ect. As soon as I receive an email back about the photos you would like I will get onto getting them for you.
Many Thanks hope to here from you soon

Hello,
thanks for the mail regarding my lovely puppies ready for

now and for ever.They would come either separately or both depending
on you. Below are some important information you will need to know

new area two weeks ago, I noticed that my working hours are not O.K.
for me to continue to keep them with me, I am always very busy at work
and have less time to spend with the puppies. Can you imagine I can't
spend more than three hours with them a day?. so I cannot keep them
with me as its highly restricted in my apartment here in ( Grantown-on-Spey,
Morayshire PH26 3HY ), so i can arrange for the puppies
to be delivered over to your home that will cost you ?300
altogether.They would be Coming with:
# Health certificate.
# 1 year health guarantee
# Complete medical record
# Crate
# Playing toys
# And a puppy kit starter.
Getting a good home for Them is the most essential thing I have ever
wanted for them. So i have some few questions for you which I hope you get
back to me with the answers sincerely. I just want to make sure they are
getting into the right home. Hope you don't mind ?
Which Breed are you interested in having?
Where about are you located?
Why do you need a puppy ?
How soon do you need them or one?
Do you have any experience in raising a Puppy (or pets in general)?
Do you presently have kids and other pets?
Are you morally and financially prepared for a puppy ?
Who will look after the puppy when you are not around?
A name and contact number? Would be appreciated.Hope you don't mind
getting back to me with the answers as soon as possible. You may get
back for photos of Danny or Nina and feel free to ask any questions
regarding the adoption of any.My regards waiting for your respond

obvioiusly before i give any personal information out i would like to know a little more about danny and nina.

you say in your advert that you are an accredited breeder just wondering how that is going for you as you now are saying that you need to get a new home for the puppys as you have a new nursing job and cant be with them allways maybe before you try to SCAM someone else you should get your life story straight or at the very least the reason you are offering the pups out and your occupation in life whether your a pretend breeder or a nurse either way get a life moron i have your ip adress and its been forward to police oh and im about to advertise you across the internet for the low life rotten scoudral you are
good bye

Hello huskyscamer7. Thanks for the post.
Please bear in mind that you should not tell a scammer that you have found him out , and also not tell him his mistakes. He will work on his script and avoid the mistake in future and become a better scammer.
