Bulldog puppy - bitch (entire)
Red & white. 9 months old.
This happened in Scotland to an elderly lady who advertised her 9 month old bulldog for sale in the local paper.
The woman was subsequently visited by a woman in her thirties, approximately 5'6" tall, well dressed with blonde hair and what has been described as a "large mouth". She was well spoken with a Scottish accent, claiming to be an x-bullmastiff breeder from Airdrie. She was accompanied by a three year old boy and her husband who was in the car. After 20 minutes the woman asked if she could show the dog to her husband and to show she was "genuine", left her handbag, two rolls of money which she claimed was £2000 in cash and placed her phone and her keys on the table. She left the house with the dog and was never seen again.
The rolls of money were nothing more than cut up newspaper with a £20 note around each bundle, the mobile phone was old and switched off.
It is obvious that she has pulled this scam before so if you live in the Strathclyde area of Scotland and have a dog advertised DO NOT let anyone leave before you have received full payment - no matter how trustworthy they appear.
