But we do get scammers copying down email addresses from our website and contact sitters directly because our website gets a lot of hits. Your method of weeding out by insistin...

This is not a pet sitting scam, but still is one that pet sitters should be aware of. This morning one of my friends told me that her parents were being used for an apartment rental scam. In this case, a scammer found their information about their "house for sale" on craigslist. The scamme...

As for what will happen... The scammer will send you a check/money order/similar for more than he owes. He will ask you to cash it and send the extra to another party - such as "his groomer" or whatever - and give you an address to mail it to. Up to a month later the original check will re...

When you post these, if you are sure it's a scam and they don't provide a contact email address in the message itself, you can post the email address of the "from" here also. Some people search for that when they get the same suspicious method, so it's easier for them to find your post.

Just got that one.

Not pet sitter related, but my husband encountered this scam at his office today. The scam starts when a Microsoft Tech Support professional calls to inform you that your PC has been sending reports to Microsoft about Windows errors your PC is having. The person on the phone will have you look at a ...

I got a copy of this one also. They ask questions just to get you distracted. They don't do anything with your location. But I bet if you gave an address in another state, they'd be only 2 miles from it! From: Alan Smith <smithpetfriend> Subject: Pet Sitter Wanted Date: March 18, 2013 2:28:09 PM PDT...

It's only a scam if they want to send you an overpayment and have you pay the extra to somewhere else or back to them. (i.e. cash a bad check, pay them real money with it, and then it bounces are you are out that money).

I like that on many of these scams their first names and last names are interchangeable.

I don't think that's a scam. It's an offer for a link exchange. I'd ignore it.

I think there are alot more spammers than scammers. The only countries I've gotten scams from I believe were Nigeria, South Africa, and one from India. I thin most of my overseas hits are from other countries, like Japan and China. But I haven't checked in a while. I just assume they are bots and ig...

That's a good one. Usually the attachment will install a script so that malware can hijack your email or other parts of your computer without you being able to tell (other than possibly your real-time anti-virus or malware detector catching it). Nice catch not open an attachment!

I've read that many banks have upgraded scanners that don't require magnetic ink, and they will process checks that don't have it. Other banks absolutely won't. I know that about the time I started our business (I think about then) I was printing my own checks with an inkjet printer using versacheck...

If you receive any of these scams it is always helpful to post the email address they come from. I actually get quite a few non-members writing to us that they looked up the email address on a suspicious email, and our website popped up. Often times it isn't even for a pet sitting scam. It seems man...

I just found this one entertaining. I listed a horse for sale late last night, and here is one of the responses (knew right away it was a scam, based on the keywords "present condition" and "last asking/saking price" and thought it would be fun to see how big of a fake check I co...

He is coming "down" from Puerto Rico? Where do you live?

First one to get a check from him wins?

Credit card in advance. That one sounds interesting. I'd see if they give you a number, and then call the issuer to let them know a card number has been stolen.

It's not the easiest process to learn. First you have to look at the message headers for the IP address. I think you want to use the very last one listed in the headers.
