yup and by the sounds of your great English sounds like you work for them too!!  you think we all believe that it is just a coincidence that all these people have some pressing reason they need to give these dogs away and happen to use the same phony shipping company and of course due to a company "audit" you must pay directly to the flight director who is in another country!!!!  GET A JOB AND STOP RIPPING PPL OFF!!!!!

Geez!  They just don't quit i guess.  I am just glad I realized I was being scammed before i put out a couple hundred bucks!!  Once i saw the picture of that baby Rottie, I think my stupidity stepped in.  Good luck finding a home for your dog.

I just did some looking about this and apparently they are sending people money orders in a higher amount than the cost of the dog and then asking you to send back the difference....CASH.  Only to get notified that the money order they gave you isn't legit.

Ya definately full of s#$t !!! I have gotten all the same messages as everyone else and I think "Phillip" is just another alias for karen , tessy, fida lidia, etc

I'm pretty sure I'm am having the same issue I've been emailing this guy Shuman Orien for the past few days about these great dane puppies for free...and everything seemed good and then I got a call from a restricted number and then another call from a number in canada from what sounds like the same guy really thick accent hard to understand. I sent the 4 hundred cause yes I am an idiot and have never really dealt with online stuff before and they called this morning and are now asking for 2000 dollars ? Sounded fishy so I looked up the name and found all this stuff that you guys have posted that is similar to situation I'm currently in. Thanks guys for posting these statements I may be out 4 hundred but good thing I cuaght on before I paid 2 grand. Everyone keep an eye out for a posting with the email shumanorien@yahoo.com.  for 2 great dane puppies.

THIS IS A SCAM. This is a version of the advance-fee-for-something scam where something is a grant, loan, lottery winnings, interest rate reduction, gift card, refund, doggie, cruise, vacation, free gas, etc., and the advance-fee is for tax, shipping, registration, insurance, secure handling, processing, etc. They may send you a fake check, may want your credit/debit card or bank account number,  or tell you to wire cash via Western Union, Moneygram, etc. They can put recurrent difficult-to-cancel monthly charges or a 1-time charge on your card or bank account, and sell account info to other criminals and you'll have to replace accounts altogether. Wired-cash is irretrievable - once it's picked up at the other end, it's untraceable and gone. If they want you to call them up for instructions, they may tell you not to discuss the wire with Western Union desk clerks but the real reason is WU clerks are familiar with these scams and will warn you not to wire the money. Report to US Postal Service Inspectors https://postalinspectors.uspis.gov/forms/MailFraudComplaint.aspx , the Federal Communications Commission http://esupport.fcc.gov/complaints.htm , the Federal Trade Commission https://www.ftccomplaintassistant.gov/ and your state AG, as appropriate.

Ok, guys.. ALL OF YOU.. Why would anyone buy a dog off the internet from a stranger? MISTAKE 1. (it's ok to make mistakes, we're all human) REAL breeders have websites and references and they're all affiliated with their local and/or national breed clubs AND the A.K.C. (American Kennel Club). REAL dogs that are being re-homed are all on adoption sites with references and affiliations to breed clubs or shelters.

I also saw these ads and sent an inquiry about the dog I was hoping to acquire... (Yes, I fell for it too) Here is the email I sent:

"Hi, I have been thinking about getting a puppy and am getting close to ready to make a decision... Could you tell me about yourself, your breeding, certifications, AKC info, etc.

Thanks"

The response I got barely even attempted to answer these inquiries, and was far more focused on getting my number, explaining why money would need to be sent to transport the dog and telling me about his "dead wife who was killed by a drunk driver." I don't know about all of you, but if I had just lost my wife to a drunk driver I wouldn't be handing out those details to strangers via a first email communication. Believing that load of garbage was MISTAKE 2! for those of you who kept moving forward after their response.

That's as far as they got with me, because I then googled the "person" who sent the email and found this thread. YOU ALL NEED TO DO YOUR HOMEWORK BEFORE YOU GET A PET!!! Research the person or organization who's attempting to sell a living thing to you, and be sure they're legit. More importantly, if the pet is worth it's pedigree the breeder or previous owner will be asking you a ton of questions to make sure you are a suitable person to take their precious animal. Even shelters qualify people before handing over the otherwise unwanted animals to their new homes. MISTAKE 3!!!! Why didn't they care who you were? Don't you think someone would want to make sure you're not into eating or torturing animals before handing theirs over to you??

THINK, PEOPLE.... THINK!!!!

I got the same email recently.  Below is the email.  Grammer is very bad and she keeps telling me to send the money to this company but the website is bogus and there is no way to pay.  See if this email sounds familiar:

Hi    
    thanks for the response to my advert .they are still available and ready for a new home.i got only a male and female out of the 3 i placed up for adoption.they are from a champion blood line and are pure breed english bulldog puppies.they have been vet checked,akc registered, dewormed,current on all  vaccines and  shots,have all health papers,home and potty train and will never mess up your home. the male is 14weeks old and is call Max while the female is 12weeks and called Liya.        
    Well  the reason why i`m giving out these puppies is because we are moving out of state  to a non pet apartment and need to find good home for them.Actually i am located in Columbus,Ohio and can ship the puppies to you if interested  and if you are on able to come for pick up.you can have my puppies if you can afford an adoption and shipping fee of $200 for one and 400 for both .all i want for them is a loving and caring home,a home where they will always have people around them to offered all the love and affection they deserve.we spend a lot of time loving and playing with our babies.My  puppies come to you pre-spoiled and will make a good companion to you or your family.if you are serious in adopting any of my puppies, i will like to know the following about you:

have you ever had a dog before?
are pets allowed in your home?
do you have a large yard?
are you a breeder or pet lover ?
how soon do you want the dog?
where are you located?

   I`m sorry for all these question but i`m just concern about the type of home they will be going into.As much as i want a new home for my  puppies, i also need some one who can take very good care of them  and give them much attention, get back to me as soon as possible.hope to read from you
Kind Regards


Maria.......
