Nimmer is not for sale. I have a litter out of him and he has some pups that are going for 185 for one and because I have two left 300 for the pair. Nimmer is mine and my sons dog. He goes with us everywhere. I will also be having a litter out of his littermate and a Pocahontus female. Those pups will be a little more as I paid more for the female.

Do the first part....then wait. Tell them the dog is sick at the vets but it is minor and will be ok just gonna take a week to get back on his feet. When the check bounces, sue the $#!+ out of them for bad check lol...

Some folks will scam you anyway they can...

I've been getting all kind of emails sence the holidays started
best thing to do is just delete them without even looking at them

I did a story on this scam about a year ago. I had also done a researched story about ANOTHER "Nigerian" scam. (That's what they are called). The forensic computer investigator (detective) for Lufkin repeated to me several times - DO NOT RESPOND to these emails & DO NOT OPEN emails from ANY suspicious source. What I discovered while doing one of my stories was that yes, one of the scammers was actually in Africa - he lied about his actual (City) location there, but I talked to him on the the phone after calling him. I informed him of his lies & printed them in the paper. Interestingly enough, 3 days later the paper received a letter to the editor, postmarked in Texas, begging us not to consider the person in Africa as a "Scammer" one day before my story was printed. One of the FIRST clues to these scams is misspelling & poor grammar & that is followed by offers of "extra" payments and/or benefits. I received an email from South Africa where a "buyer" wanted to purchase 100 Coonhounds from me. Of course I didn't respond. What the detective told me is that some of these people have equipment (or they've sent you a TROJAN) where, from your IP info they can access ALL of your personal/financial info if you respond to them. YOU ARE CORRECT about this being a scam!

you can pick up on em pretty quick with the language they use. and they usually have the facts miffed up. those are bad checks, dont even play with those people... its the beginning of alot of problems FOR YOU. including being arrested once they steal your identity..... and MAYBE you've cashed a check... from another unsuspecting party.... who thought something else was going on...and now your in the middle....they got the bulk of the money and your in jail for fraud.....

this happened to my brother.....IDIOT. ...yea you're an idiot.
