My FSIL... I just don't understand her sometimes

Just a quick rant because if I say something to her it will likely be blown out of proportion, and choosing your battles blah blah... she's not my favourite person for lots of reasons which I might go into later.

Today's Story!

It's pretty well known that I love pugs. I have a fawn pug & a tri-colour pug cross (my inter-species soulmate). FSIL sends me a text message with a link to "FREE PUREBRED" pug puppies on Gumtree, which I diligently forward to the local pug rescue because the words Free and Purebred often means trouble for the animals. Rescue group lets me know it's a scam & because I'm not awful, I let FSIL know. She replies "haha yeah i know"

WHY THE FLYING HECK DID YOU MESSAGE ME A SCAM LINK THEN?!

I, I just... I just don't get this girl's deal. Is the name Picky Nicky taken? She's given me loads of (not super awful) just "WTF are you thinking?!" moments that I'd be happy to share.

I'm hoping she didn't really know it was a scam and just didn't want to look stupid. The alternative is much worse.

I agree with u/Citruslatifolia. She just didn't want to look stupid. Or it could be that she sent the link in good faith and then found out afterwards it was a scam.
