Never trust a seller whom:
Uses any Common Internet Scams techniques and Warning Signs
Denotes they are from Africa, Lagos, Nigeria, Cameroon or London.
Insists you to use Western Union or other money transfer services. This kind of payment services offers ZERO protection.
Speaks of missionary work or any other kinds of relief work to build trust.
Cannot provide additional 'personalized' photos.
Contact the merchant either through email or phone. Only use email as the initial form of communication. But DON'T use email as the only means of communication. Speak to the seller on the phone more than once. All good reputable breeders will want to talk to you over the phone numerous times. Don't rely the seller who refuses to give you a phone number or states the phone number is out of service or requests to use only email. Never send Western Union or Money Gram when buying online since there is no way to protect your money if any problem occurs in future.
