SCAM ALERT: TWO SCAM ALERTS...READ....READ....READ
There are two different SCAMS being run:
1) Dogs being advertised, & someone will contact them about purchase. Agree to a price & say that they will send a check & include money to be forwarded to a "dog hauler", that will pick them up! A BOGUS CHECK is sent, the "seller" will then send money to the "dog hauler"! That money is GONE! The check is no good! Be aware & don't fall for this!
Insist that the money exchange be via "cashiers check" or "Pay Pal"!
You have been warned!
2) Garmin SCAM: A deal will be posted on Classifieds, or sometimes on this page as well! No matter what the price they advertise; ALL CONTACT IS THROUGH EMAIL!!!!!! Look at the return "email address"...it will be out of the country, & not a "legit" Garmin dealer! No phone contact listed! If it sounds too good to be true...it is a SCAM! BE AWARE!!
Again, you have been warned!
I BLOCK the "IP Addresses" of these scammers, but they use revolving software to cir***vent the block. I will continue to block them, & hope they will finally get stopped!
There are a number of legitimate, re****ble dealers that advertise & sell Garmin products through "SpeedDogs Classifieds"! Do business with them!
If you are advertising hounds or pups, make sure the "buyer" is legitimate! And make sure you get your money "up front"! If you receive a check, have the bank "verify" that it is good, before any further activitity with the buyer!
Sadly there are those out there that will try any & every way to take or steal your hard earned money! Especially through the Internet!!
