In today’s episode, we’re tackling a serious and frustrating issue in the pig community—piglet scams. These scams are popping up all over Facebook and the internet, tricking people into thinking they’re buying a piglet, only to steal their money with nothing to show for it.
I break down the red flags to watch for, like fake photos, new social media pages, and suspiciously low prices. Scammers even steal real breeders’ photos—including mine—and pretend to be us. I’ve had people contact me thinking they were working with me, only to find out they’d been talking to a scammer.
I also share practical tips to protect yourself: ask for current photos or videos, request a FaceTime call with the piglet, check social media and reviews, and contact their vet. And most importantly, trust your gut—if it feels off, it probably is.
I also recommend checking out the American Mini Pig Association for a list of registered, ethical breeders you can trust.
Let’s work together to keep our pig community safe and informed.
