    On craigslist etc. never give out your full name or address for ANYTHING. there are so many scams out there is scary.

    Didnt mean to bust your bubble, I know you are probably excited to get your hands on a pied for so cheap, but dont be quick to give your info out.
    Yeah. The little red flag was already up and my bubble kind of burst yesterday. Thanks.

    Since I can be a real pain I would ask him what he means by

    food stuff that will enable to piebald for about 1 months
    that should be funny.

    While I am sure it is a scam ask him pictures of the animals on today's paper , HIS precise location and tell him you will meet him in person.

    At that point he will either answer like a politician avoiding to answer, disappear or tell you they are sold.

    Re: Someone's offering me a piedbald for $300... could it be a scam?

    ,Shipping is not 100$,those people who take 100$ for shipping are not for real Ok, I am also shipping the piebald with a free transporting box,food stuff that will enable to piebald for about 1 months so that is why i am asking you 300$ Ok,So below are some pictures of piebald,
    This is just like all the other scammers I come across.. I don't see how they can fool anyone, but I guess they do.

    I guess I was scammed when I spent under $100 to have one of my Beardies shipped to me.. blast.

    So what he's saying is that since he is including food for one month, it will cost $300?

    Lol. He keeps dropping the price and asking me for my info. xD He's getting less and less believable every single time. It's funny.

    The first mails were a little believable, But even I can see it's a scam now. I'm not THAT dumb. I made the board after the first mail.. lol

    To be honest its because alot of people are unable to smell a scam and to quick to jump on a good "deal".Thats how they are still running the scams.If people would use common sense that god gave them these scum scammers would dry up and die.

    well even though through reading the updates since yesterday i have to agree this guys a scammer...its still not out of the realm of possibility some rich guy wouldnt care about 1000, i mean if i had a million dollars shoot id sell a piebald to some lucky guy for like 300 dollars. Why not??
