Bulldog Puppies are being advertised from £290 to £400 and when you respond you are told the dogs are in Scotland, Florida, Nigeria or South Africa. The reply makes out that the pups are much loved babies and often have religious references. Then you are asked for your nearest airport. We cannot stress enough
DO NOT SEND ANY MONEY - IT IS A SCAM!!

Send us any copies of the ad you have found either on line or in your local newspaper so we can post them here as a warning to others.

Variations of Bulldog Pups for sale. These ads appear in local papers and the replies are along the lines:

 

 

 

I have two english bulldog pups,male and female that i want to give out for adoption to a loving and caring home for £400.I am so busy and my wife is out of the country and we both agreed to give the pups out since they will need more attention than we can give.They are 13 weeks old and current on shots.Have been vet checked and dewormed,trained for wee wee and comes with health papers.Any family willing to take the pups must be willing to sign a contract never to breed nor sell the dogs.We also like to come visit the pups from time to time to see how they are fairing.These pups are darlings.We are not willing to separate them as they are so used to each other and will find it difficult to adapt in any home without the other.

"Hi I believe this is a scam. They wanted me to send money via western union and they said for my security they ask me to put a security question and answer which I would give to them after I have sent the money to them. Western Union said that's not true the money gets transferred straight away. He is in Ireland doing work and his wife is in Cameroon!!"

"... You're lucky to have mailed at this time because the puppy has just been placed on adoption by one of my customers, who went on a veterinarian work transfer with the West African veterinarian commission Lagos Nigeria, West Africa. He is giving the pup up for adoption because he cant take good care of the pup due to his busy and tight state of work. All he wants is someone that's homely and with a good christian home to adopt this young and lovely human best friend."
