Answer:
We work very hard to protect our members from fraudsters and other malicious users. However, we rely on user reports to inform us of any suspicious activity on the site.
The safest way to make sure that you complete your transaction without problem is to meet the seller personally. That way, you can see for yourself the authenticity or quality of the pet/s before you make any payments.

Answer:
- If you suspect that an individual is selling puppies or dogs as a business without a proper licence, report the individual to the local authority licencing department.
- If you suspect that a licenced breeder has violated any of the terms of the licence, file a report to the local authority.
You can easily find a “report advert” link on each ad. We make sure to investigate and take the necessary action to address the issue.

Answer:
If you believe that the ad is fake, please notify us immediately. To report, click on ‘Report this listing’ located on the right side of the specific ad listing and below the Contact Seller. You can also contact us directly.
Answer:
There are ways to detect if a seller is a fraud or not. Below are few typical signs of a fraudster:
- High number of pet adverts offered at super low price.
- Phone number cannot be dialled or no number at all.
- Requests for advanced payment through wire transfer or Western Union.
- Does not want to use secure payment gateways.
- Uses other billing address other than the one on the advert.
- Does not answer phone calls or emails.
