Have you received one of these SPAM-type puppy emails?
The following email arrived in my mailbox this morning. I've never seen anything like it. I would certainly hope this person is not seriously selling puppies BY MAIL. Have any of you received something similar? I have not responded to this person, fearing I'll get MORE spam!

Western Union is used for many scam purposes. I was scammed by someone selling a car on eBay. You will not get your money back. If they use western union in any email, the red flag should fly high knowing it is a SCAM!!

I think this is a fake. He isn’t even spelling the breed of the dog correctly. He does not use correct capitalization, punctuation, or grammar. I am neither an English major nor a teacher of any kind. But if I wanted to sell something I claim to specialize in I would definitely learn how to capitalize and spell it correctly. Was the reply email address in your SPAM folder?
I tried to find this topic on www.snopes.com, but there is nothing.

If you ask me, there's a high probability that you'll just send money and never receive anything at all.
