CIProud.com works hard to maintain a friendly environment in which buyers and sellers are honest and trustworthy; however, some scammers succeed in posting or responding to listings.

If you find an ad suspicious please report it to us at spoof@wmbd.com.  Remember to include the e-mail address from which you received the questionable response and/or the full detail of the ad.

If you are uncomfortable with a response to your ad please report it to us and do not proceed with a sale.   It is your right to refuse.

The most common scams we see are "Free" Yorkie Puppies, "Free" Bulldog Puppies, and for some reason, "Free" Chipukin Monkeys.  Most of these scammers reside out of the country and will contact you with broken English and other RED FLAGS.  Please be careful.
