Obviously noone knew right away. Did you miss the part where we found out the numbers were different in different emails? Or do you know that if you're emailing from an office it often attaches a sig for you with your contact info? Also notice right away where I told people to hold on b/c I was looking into it given further information? And maybe they should've sent something out expalining what they forwarded after they recieved calls and didn't know?
In the particular email to me the chain was only 3 people long INCLUDING the person who sent it from our office. The ONLY other 2 were from a non-affiliated office but connected through friends.
Oh..... And thanks for being a D*ck cool guy.
a scam like this makes me mad, just put my 16yr old yellow lab to sleep a week ago

I got the same e-mail from a coworker with the same puppy pictures, but a contact for them in the Atlanta area:

What a messed up way to get revenge on someone though... your girlfriend cheats on you, how do you retaliate? Put her number(s) on a For Sale: Adorable Puppies Saved From Death ad, and watch her blow up from around the clock mercy calls.

Lets not pull a Dan Rather and start blaming others for posting a hoax and not realizing it was all false to begin with. Mistakes happen, just live with it.
You're late to the party man. We had already figured it out and I had already shown my unhappiness with it and yet once again you FAIL to read..I already have a dog.

Example of the same scenario, but let's put you in other people's shoes:
So you're saying that if some douche bag came up to you and lied about your friend who was.. let's say.. dying in the hospital; and you (being a caring person) called the hospital to checkup on your friend and blew up their lines to see if he's doing okay...

^Haha, thanks for breaking those quotes out and analyzing the thread. I didn't mean to step on anyone's toes for wanting to adopt a pet. It's for a good cause but it happen to turn out to be a hoax that I tried to point out, perhaps a little too late. I just feel bad for those on the receiving end of those calls, albeit for good reasons by the caller. Hence it's messed up.
