SCAM ALERT

Ocala FL

Description

Beware of scammer(s) on here placing ads for maltipoos/other "pups." When asked, provides far away address in middle of nowhere. When address checked on property appraiser website and owner contacted, verified owner there does not have any ads. Phone number utilized with out of state area code(s) are google numbers. Will not answer phone because "at work, can only text" and refuses to provide video verification. Requires "deposit" of half of the rehoming fee in order to schedule a "meet" when ad clearly states "come meet the pup(s) in person." So sick and tired of the cesspool of scammers that craigslist has allowed and continues to allow on here. Pictures include either google images, reverse searched, and images of pups with someone's hand in picture. I recently fell for one of these and drove an hour to meet someone that never showed and disregarded my calls/texts. Luckily, I did not pay a deposit as I told them upfront I would only pay after I saw pups. Last time I fall for a scammer again! F U SCAMMERS
