Has anyone gotten an out of area request?
By out of area I mean extremely out of your working area. This morning I received a request from the west coast. I live on the east coast. This owner asked for 30 visit's over the course of 2 days for a puppy. When I realized they were 2700+ miles away I replied and they never responded, so I declined it.
Yes. Many times. It is always them either not updating their address or someone who will be visiting town. Just ask them if the address listed is correct. In my experience it has never been a scammer.
