DO NOT BE SCAMMED!!! If you are interested in purchasing a puppy off the internet from ANY breeder - use some common sense. If the deal sounds too good to be true.....it is. As for fraud control please ask your prospective breeder for SOMETHING. A video call is best - you can see the puppy live and almost all breeders now have that technology with FB Messenger, Google Duo or Skype. If they do not then I recommend a picture of your name on a piece of paper with the date with the puppy standing next to that picture. If a scammer has stolen a picture he/she will not be able to do that for you because they do not have the puppy. Or references - a legitimate breeder will always be able to provide a reference from another buyer. There are just as many scammers stealing my photos to scam individuals as there are scammers taking Innocent client's money. I don't mean to scare anyone. Everyone needs to protect themselves when purchasing anything through the internet.
Text, Skype, FB messenger, email or call.
