Re: Beware dealers are flagging puppy ads to scam you

It might be true that there are possibly some dealers flagging (but I doubt there are many). BUT... there are many, many, many scammers on the CL Pets section, and it's usually the scammers who are getting flagged. Sorry scammers, but you'll continue to get flagged as long as you're trying to scam people. People looking for pets: - Hang-up if the person supposedly selling a pet says he needs to "verify" your phone number with a "code" - it's a scam to steal your phone line right out from under you. Hang up. - Never pay somebody any kind of "deposit" for a pet you've never actually seen & held. Scammers don't even actually have the pet they advertised - they don't have anything to show - they just want your "deposit".
