Fake check scam targeting Craigslist puppy sellers!

Expert Opinion
Imagine getting a check that looks legit, only to learn it’s a fake after you’ve already handed over a puppy. That’s a classic advance‑fee scam, and it’s thriving on platforms like Craigslist where buyers and sellers connect quickly. The best defense is to verify payment through your own bank before releasing any goods, and to be wary of unsolicited checks, especially when the amount exceeds the price you expect. Keep records of all correspondence, and if something feels off, pause the transaction. Report suspicious activity to the platform and, if needed, to consumer protection agencies.
