Have you experienced a scam artist?

Just a heads up. Erin C with 3 pugs. Received message: Will you be available to sit Diego, Chalupa & Oswald on Dec 21-Jan 2, 2019? My response, yes I am available. Next message from Erin C: Is there any way I can speak with you not through the app. You can call your text me at (605) 545-4449 I didn't respond and reported the conversation.

I had a similar message and then Rover flagged their account for suspicious activity before I even realized it was not a real customer. Someone else must have reported them also. I think this is a weird way to scam people. Usually it’s to get you to send money to them, but them requesting a stay

means they have to pay you....makes no sense. And if they are trying to rob you or something at a M&G, your first red flag before opening the door would be that they don’t have a dog with them. I have only had one with someone looking to get a dog, but they were recommend by another client.

There appears to be an uptick in spam accounts sending out booking requests, you did the right thing by reporting to Rover support.
