WEB SCAM IS TARGETING ANIMAL-LOVERS

10:30 - 13 February 2008

Animal-lovers are being urged not to be duped by the latest internet scam.

Consumer Direct East Midlands has issued a warning about online adverts for pedigree puppies available for "adoption" or offered for "free to a good home" as long as the prospective owner agrees to pay for transport costs.

After exchanging details by e-mail, the scammers request funds be sent to them by money transfer before disappearing with the cash

Sara Barry, Consumer Direct East Midlands manager, said: "Although these adverts can seem genuine, and however cute the pictures might be, I would advise people not to buy a pet on impulse. People are advised to choose a reputable, local breeder so that they can go and see the animal.
