My goodness, what are people thinking these days. Life is so difficult trying to work out who is honest and who is doing a scam. Didn't think it would involve "doggie" people, but I guess these rotten people are in all walks of life. So far nothing like this has happened in Australia, but probably just a matter of time.
Dachshunds are delightful, Valdachs

SARAH VAIL FOX is alive and well, living in Corona, CA (Riverside county, southern CA) on English Setter St (I have her address for anyone that needs it). She is married to KEVIN FOX, and they have 2 children (the future scam artists of America). SARAH VAIL FOX continues to use innocent animals to scam unwitting people. She takes several approaches:
SARAH VAIL FOX will advertise dogs on-line (usually puppies, to really rope people in) and have people pay thru PayPal or Western Union (so they have no recourse). She won't return phone calls or e-mails, and never gives a number people can call her at. I have been contacted from victims all over So. Calif. as well as in Colorado, Arizona, Nevada, New Mexico and Florida who paid money to SARAH VAIL FOX and NEVER received their dog!! One person who filed a dispute with PayPal was able to view Sarah's account transaction history for 2007, and estimates that SARAH VAIL FOX made approximately $100,000 last year scamming people in this fashion (you can bet she isn't paying taxes on that money!!)
Her other scam is to pose as a bogus dog "rescue" organization, claiming to be a non-profit charity (again, this means she is pocketing all of the "adoption" fees TAX-FREE, as THERE IS NO SUCH CHARITY!!). For this scam, SARAH VAIL FOX is aided by her mother, LINDA VAIL. "Adoption" fee checks are made payable to LINDA VAIL as the claimed "funds co-ordinator" (big red flag....legitimate charities NEVER accept funds payable to an individual). The adoption fee paid to LINDA VAIL is hugely inflated, a portion of which is called a "neuter deposit" which is allegedly refunded once the dog is spayed/neutered. NO ONE has EVER received this "deposit" back!! Also promised are that the dogs are utd with their vaccinations, that they have been micro-chipped, that they have a "health guarantee" and "vet certification", that they come with pet insurance and "lifetime obedience training". Records of all this are promised "as soon as you decide to keep the dog"....again, NO ONE has EVER received a legitimate adoption agreement or contract of any sort, nor have they ever gotten ANY legitimate vet, vaccine or medical records (although Sarah has provided falsified "records"). When people take their new dog to their vet, they usually discover that the animal is sick or has a condition that of course was never disclosed. One person's dog died a month after "adopting" from SARAH VAIL FOX.
Sarah claims that she works for PETE MEDINA at GOLDEN STATE K9 TRAINING ACADEMY on El Sobrante Rd. in Riverside, CA. Many of the dogs she uses to scam people are also kenneled at this facility.
SARAH VAIL FOX has used many aliases. She has operated under numerous kennel, puppy broker and/or FRAUDULENT "rescue" organization names. Some examples are: foxxxpaws, allbreedrescue, coastalk9rescue, pawprintsbythesea, Le Fox Puppies, and brusselsnfriends. Some of the breeds SARAH VAIL FOX uses to scam people are Yorkshire Terrier, French Bulldog, Chihuahua, Pug, Boston Terrier, Cavalier, Bichon Frise, Maltese, German Shepherds, Retrievers and Great Danes.
If you have ever dealt with this woman, you have been screwed. She is a habitual liar, cheat and fraud. There may be civil and criminal actions available to you.....send your story to stoprescuecharityscam@yahoo.com and I will share any info I have that may be helpful to you.
