New York, New York

For months, scam atists posing as sellers have been using stolen photos in their ads, claiming they are pictures of dogs for sale. I doubt very many, if any of the ads on Puppyfind are legitimate, at least not in the French Bulldog category. My dogs' photos have been stolen from several websites and posted in ads under the different names, ages, sexes with different seller names and multiple locations. Sometimes they are posted with the watermark or copyright insignia. Each time, I notify Puppyfind, and they do NOTHING. I threaten the seller with legal action and sometimes they remove the ad only to post again a day or two later with the same photo or another stolen photo. Every, let me stress EVERY time that I have gone on Puppyfind to get the url for fraudulent ads with my bulldogs' photos, I find a friend's dog's photo in an ad or a breeder's photo from their website or a photo stolen from the Dogster site. It is ridiculous. The sellers should be prosecuted since they are obviously fleecing unsuspecting buyers and Puppyfind should be held liable for knowingly allowing them to do so.

Please if you are looking for a puppy, this is not the place to find your dog. If you do receive a puppy, and that is doubtful, the chances that it will be healthy are slim to none. Find a breeder if you want a purebred dog or go to a shelter and adopt but this site operates with no thought for their legal or ethical responsibility to the buyers.

AMEN TO THAT!!

I seen a friends pups listed and contacted the seller just to see what he would say and he would only accept Wester Union. That is a clear sign. SO puppyfind.com is making a fortune off of the good guys and the bad guys. I hope the buyers start looking elsewhere as well.

Thank you for your post. I wish we can inform the whole US of puppyfind.

The Internet

Yah, that is a sensitive point. GIFs, JPGs and TIFFs can be branded so that if they are ripped the brand remains. Even with Photoshop, if the brand is placed well, it will be nearly impossible to remove without everyone knowing it. The metadata can be changed by virtually anyone.

You have a lock on your front door? Yes?

More people come to your website than your front door, yet you have no lock on your site and the copyright material on that site? I want my mommy. Learn it or pay for it. But DO IT!

Thank You
