As some of you guys know, tomorrow will be 3 weeks since my guinea pig had 4 babies. 2 boys and 2 girls. I'm keeping the girls and trying to find homes for the boys. i Posted them on Craigslist and a lot of people reach out to me but this particular guy sounded very strange to me and something was off. So i asked him what is his experience and to send me a picture of the cage where he would be keeping the boys.

Fist of all, i posted on the ad that the babies are only 2 weeks old. he told me he currently has two babies guinea pig and have fostered more than 20 guinea pigs through out his life.

He emailed me that he wanted to come pick up the guinea pigs today. So the first ring went off for me. If you are so experience in guinea pigs you should know that at 2 weeks the babies are not ready to leave mom lol.

Then he sent me a picture of two guinea pigs that looked older, not babies like he said he had and then he sent me a picture of the cage he was going to keep the guinea pigs in.

guess what? i looked up the photo on google and it so happened that the photo he sent me belongs to a member of this forum hahahaha. This guy got caught right on his lie!

here is the cage he sent me and here is a screenshot of the forum member that posted the cage back in 2010!

soo funny and scary at the same time he probably wanted the babies for snake food!
 
Well done for going detective and recognising the photo.

You cannot be too careful when looking to rehome your babies. Good catch.
 
Good detective work! Such a shame there are people out there that will try this kind of thing :(
 
Oooh huge YIKES! :eek: I'm so happy you figured that out. Perhaps since it was on craigslist, can you report his account?
But on the other hand, man he's buuuusted. :doh::))
