"SEATTLE - Con artists have come up with another devious way to steal your money. Their bait: cute little puppies.

It starts with an e-mail or a classified ad, and it ends with disappointment and a drained bank account.

Some of the victims KOMO 4 News has contacted were taken for almost $2,000. This scam works because the bad guys use the puppies to tug at your heart strings.

Michael Roland Jr. of Seattle found a Rottweiler puppy on a site called puppyfind.com -- a legitimate Web site that's sometimes used by con artists."
