ok so this person that i gave fauna to on tumblr yesterday just messaged me and told me theres something wrong with her grandma and she will give stitches to me later than expected. i don't want to question that and its too early to know for sure but :/ it just seems so convenient for something like that to happen and alot of scammers make excuses not give the villager away. she messaged me from her main blog throughout our trade and whatnot and had her animal crossing blog linked there but now its no longer there which seems weird to me. whatever if she did i have her fc and everything lol

You might've been, did you confirm that she had Stitches with her and are you able to see the past trades that she did with other people and have yet to be completed?

yeah she posted a picture showing me but has deleted it since then. i think its because she posted it on her personal blog though. no but she has her own cycle town so i don't think she has a reason to scam but idk...
she does have him she even posted a pic of her adopting him.
I know pictures are convincing but I usually check dream addresses. That's because there are no time stamps on pictures.
If she is the type of person to blog about her town and post her dream address. Then you can bet she keeps her dream address updated and current. I know everyone is different. However when I do villager trades, I feel more at ease by visiting a person's town via dream suite. I even ask people to provide dream addresses whenever I trade villagers.
If my grandma were in a dire situation, you wouldn't even get a reply from me, as that can wait.
Because if I didn't care enough to leave you in the dark, I can certainly take the time to open my gate for you to hurry and get Stitches.
Edit: This strikes me as a comment more rash than usual. I just don't buy that the situation is so dire she can reply to you, but cannot take a moment longer to let you pick up Stitches. But then again maybe Stitches is not 'in boxes' yet, and he has not even pinged yet?

she said stitches was in her cycle town which she got only on july 4th and adopted stitches sometime in late june and that she wanted to adopt fauna with her main mayor but posts are saying different unless she happened to run across him in her cycle town as well but she didn't post on her cycle blog that he moved in. whatever if she doesn't end up messaging me in a few days and doesn't reply to my messages i'm going to make a huge deal out of it for everyone to see lmao

tbh it doesn't like a reason to be worried yet? I agree with Zulehan, if someone in real life was in a situation where they needed assistance all trades I had online would wait.
I'd send another message asking her when she'll be available for you to pick him up but I wouldn't press too hard right away? When did you last talk to her?

i think zulehan meant that they wouldn't even take the time to send a message if it was so important but she did i wasn't the one to send to first send the message and just around an hour ago? i know it seems too early but idk things aren't really adding up with what she told me now that i realize it lol

Ahh, I may have misunderstood.
Well I really hope things work out you and you don't end up with no one.
I don't think there's a reason to be worried, yet.
Just keep checking on her and sorta bug her on the situation if you really feel like you've been scammed.
I know I like to take my time with getting my villagers out unless the person I'm giving them to asks for them to be rushed out.
I remember the first time I had a small incident with someone. I went to the island with some girl in club tortimer and she asked if she could try on my maid dress and I let her then she just left. I was so mad. xD

well she just told me this today and if it is true about her grandma i don't really want to bug her so i'm just going to wait for a day or two to get some kind of update and if she doesn't send anything i will contact her
If you don't get Stitches from this person, contact me, as that villager still hasn't arrived at my cycling town, but when he does and is 'in boxes' you can have first dibs.
I still remember you giving me Deirdre for free, after all.

thank you :3 i haven't found him yet in my cycling town either so i've been trying to trade popular villagers for him but mostly its been unsuccessful and now this happened so i'm just like ok then lol
This is why I'm always a little wary about trading on tumblr. A lot of people get scammed and it's near impossible to do anything about on there. :/
ik thats usually my least favorite place to trade. on here you see wi-fi ratings and on reddit they have a good system as well. luckily villagertrade does blacklist people but still some people are completely unaware and its not like they have to post on their blog saying hey i'm a scammer!!! lol
