Ask for a photo of the dog  they have and also say that will pay for expenses  once you have seen a photo or met them , If they dont send a photo then the betting is its a scam  !!

Yep or that one !! Dont get disheartened if it turns out to be a scam , there are some really nasty creeps out there but do push the police onto tracking it  whatever and continue with your postering .  When is her seasons due or been as worth looking on Gumtree for staffie pups , this has brought dogs home as a request for a photo of mum can turn up trumps.,   i know how Jenni suffered at the hands of a scammer as they told her the dog was dying and they needed the money to save her , Have you any areas to go on with this supposed finder /?

I'm starting to think myself that it is a scam... I think any genuine decent human being would do their best to reunite the dog with the owner. I have given this person my phone number, (we have not been contacted) and also all contact numbers are on the poster. The emails are not very well written and some of it does not make any sense. Betty has been spayed. I have nothing to go on at all apart from their email address, I spoke to Jenni earlier and said I would ring the police tomorrow if I haven't heard anything by then. There really are some nasty horrible people in this world. We just want Betty home !

Will get spayed put on the poster so if someone has her waiting for her to come into season then maybe they will dump her,

Have spoken to bettys owners and have given advice re emails and police as this happened to me with mikka . owners were told a few days after betty went missing some people were seen driving round in a white van reportedly pretending to be dog wardens ....  EMAILS COULD POSSIBLY BE A SCAM WHICH NEED TO BE INVESTIGATED by the police

We haven't heard from the police as of yet, so I will phone them in a mo ! Have received more emails, asking if I got the pictures he sent, which ofcourse I didn't as it was our land line number that we gave, but replied with both mobile numbers

Very very p****d off, have just spoken to the police and I have just been told that they are not going to follow up the emails regarding Betty etc as they think this person has probably not got her.  Angry
