The Striving Internet Puppy Scams
- Published 02/11/2008
The news at Jacksonville reported several cases of puppy scams. As expected, most of the scammers involved in the scams are overseas, which makes tracking difficult.
"Sisneros contacted the seller who claimed he was a missionary in Africa trying to find good homes for the puppies. He was selling them for $700 a puppy. Sisneros wired the money, but his puppy never arrived."
The following are some good advice if you are buying or selling stuff from a stranger in another country, over the internet.
"If you're buying use an Escrow Account or a Credit Card.
If you're selling, don't ship anything until the funds have cleared the bank.
If the buyer sends more than you're asking, it is a scam."

Are All Autoresponder Leads the Same?

Rating:
When choosing what kind of auto responder leads to purchase, keep in mind that the best price is not always the best option. You might pay twice as much or more for one type of lead over another, however if your ad pulls 3 or 4 times better with the more expensive lead it can be well worth the extra cost.
Typically, the cheaper quality the lead is, the less targeted they are and often times the less emails that get through and opened.

The Talmud cited the following incident: There was once a food shortage in Nehardea. All the people sold their mansions. Eventually, wheat arrived and Rav Nachman told them that the law is that the mansions must be returned to their original owners.
The Talmud notes that the reason why sales are void is because they were made in error, since it became known that the ship carrying the wheat was waiting in the port at the time the mansions were sold.
