Please beware this guy is a scammer and claims to have bulldogs (French and English) and requires you to make a deposit via money gram and call him with reference number and you will never ever hear from him again. He poses as Michael Lewis of East Point, GA.

Unfortunately I've seen this post after all is said and done. :( I went online yesterday afternoon with the hopes of finding a french bulldog puppy since I've always wanted one for eternity. I came across this website called http://www.puppyfind.com and saw a post that re-directed me to this website called http://www.abulliesworld.com I immediately fell in love with the pup and decided to call the number listed on the website (912-289-7413) and got in touch with this man named "MICHAEL". He used [email protected] email account in my case. Told me that the puppy is $1,200 plus $ 100.00 shipping. I sent the money through moneygram (the only way of patment) after asking the "breeder's" information. Gave me the name of the person I'm sending the money to, (Barbara Jester) and location which is Atlanta Georgia. Once payment was received, it really got harder and harder for me to get information and suspected I'm scammed. Today this morning he called me stating that he's on his way to the airport and I should be getting the puppy by noon. Hours passed by and nothing, tried calling the number he's been using and it's now deactiveated - google voice. I then typed in his number here and found out about this website. I wish I have done that from the very beginnning and insisted on using paypal. I'm so naive and definitely learned my lessons the hard way :?: . Just want to spread the word around to prevent this evil guy :twisted: thrive with other people's hard earned money. I already filed a police report locally but since I live in Florida and the person supposed to have taken the money is from Georgia then I doubt something will happen. Oh well, if anybody else has been victimized by this guy don't hesitate to message me or post so that other people and authorities would consider investigating about this scheme.

Admin note: Please note that puppyfind.com is a legitimate site that the scammer used to advertise his scam. They are not complicit in the scam. -Jillian

Hi. I am sick to my stomach because I came very close to purchasing a dog from these people -- the website (I forget what it was) looked very homemade, as if it was created by a family, complete with pictures of children playing with English Bulldogs, a description of how they are cared for, etc. :|

Here are two of the emails, just like all the others posted here and from the same email address:

Hi <name removed>,


Thanks for writing regarding our English bulldog puppies. I would
like to know if you are interested in either Pirate or Bella, if so
you can put down a deposit on any one of them and we will hold the
puppy until whenever you are ready to have him/her shipped to you. If
you're not ready to purchase at this time but would like to in some
months time, when we will be having our next litter then you can put
down a deposit now as we have started taking deposit for the next
litter.You will be added to our waiting list and will be informed
immediately the next litter is ready, You will also be given the
opportunity to choose the puppy of your choice before we put the res
up for sale.

Thanks

Fortunately I followed the guideline on Puppyfind and asked for recent photos with my name on a paper slip to prove that the puppy i want was real. I even typed so much about my family and why we are a fit for the puppy only to find out that he was a scammer and never replies I am just very pissed that this guy is still out there luring people with hearts on bulldogs. Please note that his recent email address is [email protected], and he never replies with his name.
