A dog died. It is a sad story, but not one that most people would likely know. A Florida woman wanted to have a new pet, so she went on the internet looking for a way to buy one. The woman found an ad on Craigslist from a person selling a "newly born" Australian Shepherd named Flamingo 2 Rhyno 5 Crack. Not knowing that the animal was already dead, she purchased two animals at $1,500 each and took them home "to wait out the shipping process". On arrival of her shipment, they both were dead and had been packed with wet towels as protection against bugs and bacteria during transit. This story would probably have only been noticed by its contact with the law. According to the Associated Press, in Broward County, Florida, sheriff's detectives are investigating an incident in which a person is accused of selling the dead dog online. If they catch the seller, he or she could face serious penalties including animal cruelty charges. The buyer of this "new" dog most likely assumes that most ads for "newly born" pets are actually for live animals. It is not unusual for people to scam pet owners with ads that sell non-existent pets or animals that are already dead. There are many other internet scams involving pets being sold online. One of them is a scheme that sells animals that are not really the animals pictured. Pictures of a cute puppy or kitten may be used on a fraudulent pet-selling website, but the pet being sold is not actually the one in the photo. Another scheme involves advertising pets for sale on classified ads websites such as Craigslist and Kijiji, but the pet already has been sold to someone else. In this scheme, scammers list pets online at lower prices than their normal prices. When a potential buyer shows up with cash in hand to pay for the "discounted" animal, they find themselves looking at a pet that has already been sold. They have no recourse because they have no contract or proof of purchase from the seller. Pet-selling scams on Craigslist have been going on since the website first became popular in the late 1990s. One of the original Craigslist pet sellers was a man who had a German Shepherd for sale online at a price of $7,000. He liked his dog very much and wanted to sell it, but he wanted to get more money out of it. So he posted an ad with pictures of the dog that told only its gender and that it was for sale at a lower price because "it is pregnant". When someone showed up to buy it from him on Craigslist, he told them that the German Shepherd had died and they asked him why he didn't tell them so when they got there. He told them that he didn't want to tell them while they were there so he would not have to see their disappointment. A more recent variation on this Craigslist scam involved someone who was selling a Bernese Mountain Dog for $1,000 on Craigslist. They posted the ad with the dog's picture on it and an "urgent" sale ad at the top of the page. When people showed up at its location, they found that it was not for sale, but they instead were pressured into buying a Chihuahua that had been kept in a cage nearby. The pregnant Bernese Mountain Dog died shortly after giving birth to eight puppies. cfa1e77820
