Hi,
Is there any way to catch this low life scammer? I wrote to him asking (genuinely) for more pictures of his puppies. My wife and I are looking to add a new member to our family so we have been looking at advertisements and breeders' websites. We wrote to 4 and this guy is clearly not who his name says he is. Additionally, some poor chap is having his picture used.
Here are the two emails I have received. You can tell, even from the level of English that the person writing the emails is clearly a non-native-English speaker.
A side note: he had originally advertised the puppies in FLORIDA. Once I told him we live in Florida and we'd like to come and see them, he wrote back to tell me he lives in Portland, Oregon (lol - as far away as he could possible find). I'm considering telling him that's fine and I would still like to visit.
Any idea how best to report this idiot?
Thank you,
Paul D.
Anyway, here are the emails:

Hi Douglas,
Thanks for your email. I guess that's a standard email you send out to all inquirers. Hopefully you had chance to read my email and see our boxer pics I included.
The pics speak for themselves - that our boxers are always loved and cared for the boxer way!
If you don't mind, please could you send some pics of your male that you have.
Thanks,
