A lot of these scams use "designer dogs" as bait. Puggles seem to be a popular mutt used lately. Bulldogs are often used too.
Watch for misspellings and bad grammar. If the ad sounds like this it's probably a scam:
pretty bulldogge puppies come along with all health papers and potty and trained, perfect temperament and housebroken. have all shots and are lovely with kids and the pets. contact for more infromations and pictures.
If you see an ad for a dog, do some Googling to research the ad poster. Look up any identifying information in the ad... phone number, email, username, etc. If you see that the person has many ads online (especially for a new breed each time they post), question that. Why does someone have yorkies one month, puggles next month and labradoodles after that? Likely it's a puppy mill or scammer.
