Definitely seems like a scam. Lately scammers have been asking for cell phone numbers.
Yes they are. How did you get them to sit still for pictures? I miss mine every day.not to hijack the thread, i have 2 gsp's best dogs ever.View attachment 559930
I have had seven GSP's. Obedient was not the issue, they were just so high strung they couldn't sit still long enough to get pictures. I did manage to get some photos , but not when they were in hunt mode.just tell them to seat, they are very smart and obbedient, going back to the scam, do not take cashiers checks they up to 2 weeks to clear or wait until they clear. you can read online about cashiers checks fraud.
It is possibly a set up for a check scam. He would send the check for more than the asking price. Maybe tell you it was for the transportation cost and ask you to pay it to a 3rd party. After you deposit the check and give the “extra” to the 3rd party the check you received will not clear.
This is exactly how it works. They send a check for extra then get you to cash it n pay extra to transport n then check bounces and you are stuck with the overdraft.This or he will have someone pick it up a day or so later then it doesn’t clear.
That isn’t correct and that belief is what scammers who use check schemes rely on. Banks will often give its clients provisional credit for all or a portion of a deposited check before it has actually cleared. That is why the scams where the fraudster asks the victim to send back a portion of the check proceeds to the scammer work. The victim sends available provisional funds to the scammer and then the entire amount of the check is pulled back by the bank once the check is returned by the maker bank, leaving the victim out those funds.Most checks clear instantly now as an electronic image counts, so they don't have to be physically sent across the country. Regardless, don't turn over possession until it clears, if it is written for too much, shred it.
