I really love English Bulldogs.
Recently I became aware of a common pet scam that is based on every other over seas Internet scam.
Someone from Cameroon posts a desired breed up for a ridiculously low price.
He/she asks for money plus shipping. You never get the dog.
Here is my recent correspondence with one such scammer.
I have resorted the posts from oldest to newest so you can enjoy the events as they occurred.
For reference, here are the photos the scammer sent with the email. Keep in mind that these are the actual size photos that were sent!
Original post that my sister saw on Craigslist in Denver:
Thanks for the mail,i work for a Christ orphanage care center at Denver,but presently i am in New lakes Cameroon. i have come to discover that the weather/climate,is not good for my baby.she finds much difficulties in adapting,and due to the nature of my work,i find much difficulties in taking care of her,so i want to send her back to the States/Canada to any caring family/ pet lover or a Christian home.i hope
that you will take great care of her ok? i will not refuse anyone from

The formatting was a little better, but everything else was identical.
My reply:
I will gladly have one of my friends in Cameroon pick up the dog.
Thank you,
Their reply:
i am sorry fo the ale reply,i went for evening prayers.that is all the pics i have for the puppy,and the pictures you see is the pics of 1puppy,and not different puppies.so how soon are you ready for the puppy?
My reply:
ashley,
it is no problem. I am so glad you wrote back. Those pictures are still very small. I used my photoshop custom enlargement filter and the dog has a brown patch over the left eye in some photos but not in others. Does the patch move? Did the patch appear as he got older? You didn’t use an bleach or other chemicals to remove the spot did you? The smell of bleach bothers my cats.
Are the pictures actual size? Have you had the puppy vaccinated against elm beetle?
Their reply:
Hello
i am just so sorry for emailing you very late,i was at a seminar,and only came back yesterday.the batch appears as she grows older. my baby is a southwithshire breed,and i am sorry you misunderstood me the $325 was for the transportation.her re homing fee is $1950.my darling has a pick nose.she has been vaccinated against elm,re best and is currently on sorts.she will come along 1yrs health grantee.pls i will like to know how many pets you have at the moments,because my darling is so sociable with other house pets.in fact you will see that magic in her when you get her.
hope to read from you.
My Reply:
At this point I decide to make some of the same mistakes in my post as they make in theirs. Note that they were hoping that the dog would go to a good Christian home and that they work for Christ orphanage, yet she was delayed in a previous post because she was gone for evening prayers. Isn’t that strange?
Their reply:
I begin to sense that they are getting a little irritated at my wavering interest in their baby.
ok Alvin if you will come to pick her up here,then that will be very great.this is the rightful time to visit Cameroon,when you want to come do let me know,so that i can help make some reservation for you. i have close to 3months to be here in Cameroon,and the weather it really not good for the pup.so pls the earlier you come the better.
thanks.
My reply:
This should be my final message to them. At least until they get to Denver with the southwithshire.
I just realized that Cameroon is in AFRICA! Did you know that? I thought it was in Detroit or something. That is too far for me to go to pickup the dog. I will wait until you get back to Denver. Let me know when you get here. Please keep your dog in doors I heard that some places in Africa catch stray dogs and put them in baby food. I would hate for you to have to utter the words - “A baby ate my dingo”
I am sure you will find another interested party in Cameroon with air conditioning.
Thank you,
Aaron
I got scammed from a Kelly holmes
kelly.holmes93@yahoo.com
I paid 280 dollars shipping and then after I sent it they want 500 because the Parrot is not insured and stuck in Qatar airport
and the reason they are sending money through cameroon because the agency in uae is being audited
Hello
thanks for the email
We are delighted to confirm that we still have her and that we are carefully looking for a loving home for her.She is called Linda and she is 13 Months old and purebred
She will make a great family companion as she is an excellent talker with a large vocabulary and she uses words and phrases appropriately.
She knows our names and all of the names of our other pet birds and calls us correctly. She is bilingual, using both English and Spanish. she says “Buenos Dias” (good day in Spanish) when she first sees someone in the morning and says “Hola” (hello in
Spanish) in the afternoon.
At lunch time or if she sees one preparing food or eating, she asks if we want to eat in Spanish, “Quieras de comer?”. She sings with a wonderful vibrato (her favorite song is “Con
Los A nos Que Me Quedan” by Gloria Esteban)
I have a few questions for you
Where are you located?
Have you ever had pets before?
Are you married and have you got kids?
Are you God fearing?
What kind of accommodation can you provide for the parrot?
Are you going to use the parrot for breeding or some kind of game?
What is your experience with Birds?
and sincerely
Can you assure me that you will take her on her routine checks?
I am so sorry for asking all these questions but We have noticed that some people excitingly buy pets but cannot care for them. As such we are reluctant to exchanging our baby for money but will prefer to offer her for free into loving homes who will accept the following conditions.
If you will accept to permit us visit the parrot from time to time while with you, just to ensure and see that you are spoiling her rotten with love.
Secondly if you are far from us, then you must agree with us to send
us her pictures regularly as she grow up in your home,as well as related information on her well being and development.
If you accept these conditions with your hand on your heart, then you
are free to contact us again to let us know where precisely you are
located so that we can arrange for you to have the parrot.
Waiting to hear from you
kindest regards

It was the same story about the puppy 12 weeks old.

We are thoroughly upset and angry. i found the same add on kiji today and there is no way to let people know about that add through kiji. so be aware. the email he used was maryjen51@yahoo.com Posed as a woman in Michigan(spelled Mechegan) as the sender. the add is based in atlanta as it was when we first were interested. ended up wiring money to him in cameroon he was saying he was the pet shipping agency. he even gave me the phone number:01-123-797-716-045 and converesed back and forth about the money. which the number is no longer in sevice as of this morning.(may 3, 2009) this happened to us about 14 hrs. ago and he posted the maltese add the same time after he got our money. he used an address as: Monong polinus N

her response

i just can’t believe how evil people can be.
this is exactly the same story i got when it was a maltese!
the same death story and piano classes. i also can’t believe this person is doing this!
I live in England and had nearly the same email as this concerning a beagle puppy! I was told that he had 2 puppys, rocky and rose, which were his daughters but she was killed in a hit and run 2 weeks ago and everytime he looks at them, they remind him of his daughter! I was asking questions and never said a definate yes, yet he was really pushing for my details so he could ’send rose first thing in the morning’ I was askin what company he was going to use to send ‘rose’ and can i have some more pics? When i looked at the pics again i did think it was strange that it didnt look anything like the puppy in the add i saw online (which was mysteriously taken off all of a sudden) I then noticed the pics had a website on the bottom? When i checked it out i realised he had taken the pics off an american website and was trying to pass them off as his ‘daughters dog’ which currenltly lived in Aberdeen, scotland! When i emailed again asking if he was 100^% sure that was the picture of the dog i would be receiving he replied with a quick ‘yes thats rose!’ followed by more pushing for my address?! I then googled the number he had given me in the email and found he had adverts all over the place, under different names, advertising different dogs! What sort of sick person fakes a dead daughter just for a bit of money?! I suspect he is still putting adds on the site i previously found him on, but as he keeps changing names and email addresses I cannot prove it is him! These people are sick and twisted and need to be stopped!!!
i just got scamed this evil person who said he was from hollywood, ca there were no dogs fake pics that he stole from other sites. fake airlines fake person real money. people are evil.
a pastor williams tried to scam me with bulldogs. possibly the same. from hollywood and sent bogus pics..
i saw this add for a free tea cup yorkie. i emailed him and this is what i said.
i’m interested in your puppy pleas contact me asap. thank you.
his response Daniel.powell41@yahoo.com

My Response:I am looking for a female for my mother for Mother’s day. Do you have a female? We have had small dogs our whole life and recently my brother moved out and took the chiuwawa (Cheech) with him. My mom misses him so much that every morning she drives to my brothers house just so she can walk him and spend time with him. Last night my brother was over for dinner and she insisted that he bring over Cheech. The problem is that Chich needs to adjust to his new home because he has already snuck out a few times and attempted to run back to my mom’s. She mentioned that she was considering maybe getting a Yorkey so after speaking to my brother we decided if we could find one for a decent price we would get it for her. We know once she sees it she will be in love. I live in Fort Lauderdale so I do not mind driving to pick up the puppy and my brother would like to see it too before we make the committment. We are available to see it this evening (after 5pm) or tomorrow. Please let me know. My number is 954-XXX-XXXX in case you would prefer to call. Also, if you wouldn’t mind sending the pictures in the mean time, the email you sent had no pictures. Thanks.

Thanks
My response:Your ad said that you were in Fort Lauderdale but then you tell me you are in Cameroon, so I research Cameroon and the first thing I find is articles about puppy scams from Cameroon. They display actual emails from scammers and they are exactally what you have written to me word for word. Now why would I wire you money for a puppy you cannot even produce a picture of? I guess there are some idiots out there and that’s why you are thriving. I am only interested in dealing with local breeders and do not believe in flying puppies across the world.
So now that I know that this is a scam, and you are full of sh@@t, you can take your fake puppies and shove them up your a@@! I have reported you to the websites I found your ad on so that everyone else will know you are doing illegal things and stealing. Just so you know someone was recenly arrested for doing the same thing in the States and I hope that you have the same fate. Every dog has their day.
Do not contact me again. I am turning your information over to the police so that they can investigate. I hope they find you.
P.S. - You are going to rot in He%%. Have fun.
I recently received one about a Maltese pup as well from Cameroon Airways. They wanted 90 for a new crate. Luckily though I did not send any money before I found this cite. We are a family in the US military and I used it as a threat to them so hopefully they will not be emailing me anymore. This is pathetic that people must sink so low to scam others out of money in such a mannor. I hope other people are like me and research before they wire money.
hi i got two of my friends who are scammers and they are still doing it, please if you have been scammed, just contact me i will try my best to lead you to them ok,
yeah, like we will believe that! come on you are probably part of all this s@*t!!
i was also scamed by kellyholmes93@yahoo.com
she was giving free maltese puppy only i had to pay shipping…funny …i hate these peoples
I recently came across 3 of these scammers. I’m glad I did research before I wired any money to these assholes.
Here’s an example of how they tried to con me:
joan joan (terrybulls@yahoo.com)
Hello, Actually, i am located in the Western Region Of Cameroon, where i will
be shipping the puppies to your location, which they will be delivered right at
your door steps in a crate and all play toys, with a 1 year health guarantee.
But, before i give this puppy to you, you are to promise me that, you are going
to always take him/her out or a walk, take proper care of them, and always send
me recent pictures of them. They will be coming with all work papers, food
menu.They are AKC registered, and on all recent shots up to date. If the
shipping fee is made available now, then you will have these babies, delivered
right at your door steps in about 18-19 hrs time since they will be taking a
direct flight to your location. And for you to get these babies, you are require
to provide just the shipping fee to your location . So we will also like to know
where you are located.. So how are you preparing to welcome these babies? Have
you got more play toys for them, will you always take them out for a walk?And they will be
coming along side with their resident permit STATUS FOR THESE PUPPIES. They are 11 weeks
old, they love the company of kids and other house hold pets. They are house, toilet, table trained.
Are you married……………………….
Do you have kids……………………
Are they friendly with pets………………..
Have you ever kept bulldogs before……….
Where are you located……………………..
Will be waiting to read back from you soon.
My response:
Before I decide which one to adopt, I would like to ask a few questions if that’s ok.
What’s your name?
Have you done business with other people?
How will I be paying you?
Is there a written guarantee that I will be recieving one of these puppies if I pay upfront?
If there is a problem, is there any other way that I can contact you?
Their response:
below are the answers to your questions.
What’s your name? Ade Collins
Have you done business with other people?am still doing one now, i have some whom i can give his address too you, his about to get one.
How will I be paying you? via western union
Is there a written guarantee that I will be receiving one of these puppies if I pay upfront?if you wish i write something then no problem..
As assurance,the first thing i will tell you is we do all things on trust,you
trust me and i trust you too.I can assure you i will have the puppies been
shipped to you and they will deliver them right at your door step.Well,before I
put the puppy ad for adoption,I have already obtained a legal Cites Export
Permit from the Ministry of Livestock Fishery and Animal Husbandry here to
shipping out the dogs.I think this will be as a clear Proof that what Am doing
is legal and transparent.So you are to have all my full address that you can
take any legal action to me if i get your money and don’t send you the
puppies.If i want to rip or get money from a person i will not be taking your
money,in the name of puppies that can bring done my reputation right that is too
small,i am a Christian ok.
If there is a problem, is there any other way that I can contact you? well you can use a long distance call card to call me at 00237-9439-7134
I really hope that no one else falls for this BS like I almost did.
There’s also another scammer who I’m talking to.
I’ll be sure to post about them next!
DO NOT TRUST THIS PERSON WITH ANY PET OR OBJECT!!!! - I NEARLY GOT SACMMED AT THE LAST MINUITE UNTILL I REALISED!!!! —> montannslave@yahoo.com <—
Oh my gosh! I cannot believe everything I have read! Its safe to say that I was about to be scammed by the same guy in Cameroon! I was offended when I found out he wanted me to send money to some country outside the US. Luckily I refused and then I never heard a single word back from him. How do we put a stop to all this! I have also been talking to a few other people from different ads and now I am afraid they might be scammers too! How do I know?? And that agent George guy is an absolute liar and definately helping whoever is doing this!
He’s moved up to horses now. I answered an ad for a friesian gelding of 12 years old for sale in Black Diamond Washington. After many emails back and forth, he tells me the horse is actually located in Maine. This is AFTER he finds out IM located in Washington. I guess he was afraid I would actually want to SEE the horse before we bought it. Well this guy is clearly an idiot because he sent me the registration numbers of this horses parents which I traced back to his owner who is happily living her life with this horse and clearly had no intentions of selling and knows nothing about ads being place to sell this horse. The info and emails look just like the countless ones posted here, same thing, send money to Cameroon, blah blah blah. This time he was calling himself Williams Dawrson (I think he was shooting for Dawson) and claimed to be a pastor and that this was his daughters horse who has left for college in the UK and he “is just to busy to care for his baby”
If enough people start complaining to the FBI something might actually get done about this. Although, since they arent commiting the crimes on US soil, they’re most likely isnt jack shit the FBI or any other agency in the US that can do anything about it which is why they’re still scamming. But, I hold out hope that maybe a law will get changed and they are able to charge these people since theyre money grubbing the US citizens, so I have filed my report with them. I hope you all do too.
I just got the same email like 2 minutes ago, i wanted a german shepherd, and she said she was a christian worker or something.
The message is this :
Thanks for the mail i am more happy to hear from you dear maybe my baby will finally found a good,i work for a Christ orphanage care center at Vancouver ,but presently i am in New lakes Christ Orphanage Street Lane 1451 British Cameroon. i have come to discover that the weather/climate,is not good for my baby.he finds much difficulties in adapting,and due to the nature of my work,i find much difficulties in taking care of him,so i want to send him back to the States/Canada to any caring family/ pet lover or a Christian home.i hope
that you will take great care of him ok? i will not refuse anyone from
getting my baby, all i need for him is love and care and if you will

JESUS that stupid person
I have been experiencing the same e-mails. Gosh once they get your e-mail, e-mails come in from all sorts of people. Always, different. Gee it is kinda fun playing with them, but it also makes me angry that people like this take such advantage of us. I feel badly for the people who bought into the scam. I am certain the reason the dog is so inexpensive is because of the laws. They are probably just under the amount to be charged with a felony. Below my most recent correspondence.
THE PUPPIES WILL BE SHIP FROM WALES CAMEROON JUST AS I TOLD YOU THE
ONLY ADVICE I WILL GIVE YOU SI TO CONTACT THE SHIPPING COMPANY THIS
WAY AND FINE OUT IF YOU CAN MAKE THE PAYMENT AT YOUR OWN AIRPORT AND
THERE WILL SHIP THE PUPPIES TO YOU BECAUSE FOR ME I DON’T HAVE ANY
PROBLEM IN THAT SO THEIR ADDRESS IS (safepetsrelocators@hotmail.com)SO

Shameful to have such people exist, and felt sorry for those who got scammed.
I’m a little suprized how many people fall for this. After E-mailing back and forth a few times it became obvious they were shady. I hope the have to walk a long way to get there western union because I’m bored and intend to send them on as many wild goose chases as possible. After reading up on it these guysare pulling a similar scam on everything from cars to monkeys! So I’ll just have to tell them I’m sure I sent the money, just wait a little longer, I’m at western union right now, they say the money should be there HA HA! Maybe if everyone takes a moment a sends them of to get there “funny money” they can get some exercise!
if you check out my website it is so cool abigail rocks I saw your coment on free puppies.com I care about puppies i think you do not love puppies a scam I do not think so
hah! I saw that prank! ZUG is the shizz! Good job messing with scammers.
Bri
Not that its a “funny subject”, but I laughed so hard when I read the way he messed with the scammers. My daughter was upset because she thought we had found a kitten, then she got mad and when we found the way he messed with the scammers she felt a little bit better. I am in progress of messing with one myself… gonna see how far it goes.
We have email updates for pomeranians for sale our area,as we are looking for bargin.
We recieved ad with purebred whose owner was to be traveling & could not keep.
After numerous back & forth emails, we were told dog being shipped following morning. That morning call came by phone to reply to email confirmation of shipping by company.
So called company spokesman never identifiend self by company name, hung up as I started to ask a question
We sent no money upfront, the deal was we were to pay only shipping $230.00 and dog was ours, no sale price, we were “adopting”
By late that day no email or shipping info, given to us.
We thought strange there would be no call or email with shipping info for dog, ie; arrival time / carrier name.
I emailed “seller” and was told check spam account, said company told him, goes there sometime.
already this point we are thinking this getting fishy.
The email cemented are concerns.
Email stated we were to send a “WalMart MoneyGram” to an individual in Cameroon as they were the dogs “escort” a subcontractor for Air France who the Air carrier was to be.
I of course called air france & me and the employee had good laugh about this scam, they confirmed they see all the time.
I emailed “seller” back, that I had just talked to AIR FRANCE and they don’t do business like that.
Minutes later I get phone call, very scratchy sounding with an obvious African voiced gentleman doing bad impression of a french man.
Asking us to please reply and send payment as dog in holding.
As I told him I just got off phone with Air France and Knew this was scam, he promptly hung up & last we heard of these scammers.
I researched Cameroon & internet scams & found photo of room full of people from Cameroon, in room full of computers pulling these scams.
While we suffered no loss, it was irratating wasting this time and trying to be scamed.
I like your idea of turning the tables, think will try do do some of the same.
Thanks for encouring me and others to deal with these people in manner befitting them.
hello to whom it may concern, about a dog that was announced here from cameroon, tht i tried to take to give a new home for a small fee just to get here in a loving home.

I thought this was a computer help site???
And why on earth would one go online to actually acquire a pet?
I expect there are many loving animals at the local shelter. I have acquired 2 dogs in this manner. Another (pedigree, I may add) was given to me. She was obviously abused. I will never understand anyone who would abuse an animal. As for scams, I believe I’ve just this week received one from out of state. I made phone contact with both the scammer, and the BBB of that state.
The scammer’s response was, ‘it was a mistake’. Yeah, right.
Castellini on Computers and HelpMeRick.com are all about helping people get more out of their computers. Anything that makes your computer safer, easier to understand, more functional or improve your life is fair game. We also have a disclaimer that allows us to post anything that we find interesting.
i was going to order one from there too … how can you trust them … now i know
I am sick to say I think I have been bilked for $1400.00 hard earned dollars.
A Reverend Melvin Brodnik in Douala has promised me a Green Wing macaw and a African Grey parrot for $400. Then I sent $1000.00 for insurance that I am promised to get back when the birds are delivered to me. I emailed two references of his-people he said had gotten birds from him. Of course they said they had some delays but got their birds and are happy with him.
I just found this information and will not be sending more money to the “Reverend”.
Only wish I would have checked here sooner. Adios- Bobbie in New Mexico
well i am really surprised to say that most cameroon scam artist are always using the name yega demian to scam as a pick up ID card name so we need to joinly track them down.

This was one of 3 emails from different people. all from cameroon.. selling a yorkie for $100. One was there for the peace corps, the second was there to help with HIV/AIDS and the third was a zoologist. who went there to study monkeys and thought the weather would be good for his “baby”
JERKS
this is the exact same scam i got emailed word for word and she scammed me jenny_holt26@yahoo.com
This is ridiculous. i have been looking for a yorkie for a while. I live in South Carolina so I checked with one of our main newspapers online classified ads. I got a lot of results. I emailed 12 different supposed yorkie sellers. 9 of them came back as people in Cameroon. This is crazy considering our newspaper is not one of the biggest and most known in the US. All I have to say is watch out. Here are some of the scammers email addresses if you want to mess with them like I am.
henriettaandtheophile@yahoo.com
theo_get@yahoo.com
doramokom@yahoo.com
kellydora12@yahoo.com
there is another website that i just found out about the people who are scaming with the teacup yorkie puppies
the email address is
mycute_babies@yahoo.com
have fun messing with thier heads they desreve it.
I just got scamed out of 240. dollars. I could of been worse, because they wanted me to send a 950.00 insurance fee. I was about to when I was emailing with the (suspose) company that the dog would be shipped from. I wanted to send a money gram online. They told me NO it HAD TO BE DONE IN PERSON!!! At this time, I was talking to the person that I sent the money to and the company. The more and more I spoke with the only person at this company through e-mail the more shady it became.
I sent a e-mail asking the company to call me, because there office hours were 6 P.M. and on. The response I recived was “someone will sooner or later”. Yeah nice costumer service.
So I called the airport that they said the puppy was going to be shipped from. They never heard of he company that was shipping the dog witch was (USA PET TRANSPORTERS ltd) and I talked with the airline that the dog was suspose to be on and guess what? they DO NOT SHIP PETS!!
So finally I received a phone call from a private number witch I questioned and got a stupid answer. Then I asked for the address of this “private airport” they were using and got hung up on. Finally the guy called that I purchased the puppy from and told me he would pay the 950. and for me to send it to him when I get refunded at my door. 5 hrs later I still have not heard from him with the information.
I email him back and he called me. He says: Maam my wife said I should not have to pay all of it. If you can send 450. and ill pay the 500. Ummm no I will not send your sneaky a@$ anymore money.
As I been looking online I came accross many adds with guess what again??? the same persons address….
DO NOT LOOK AT THIS ADD IF THE EMAIL ADDRESS IS
ridleysy@gmail.com
OR THIS PHONE NUMBER
240-547-0030
HAVE A NICE DAY!!
i got a add in the arkansasmatter.com on the internet about free bulldog puppies and i replyed we talked back and forth
i told them i would pay for the shipping well he said he he lived in seaatle washington and the air fare was 200.00 so i said i would pay it. he said he was going to the air port the next day and they would be calling me for my information and money. the next day i got a email from the airport it looked kinda strange so i got on line to the air port and put in the flight there was no such airplane by that number so i emailed the guy back wanting his phone number he gave it to me and said i could call but he was very busy man so i called no such number today i got another email from him and he said the airport contacted him and said i didnt pay the 200.00 and they couldnt send the dog so i emailed him back and told him there was no such airplane going out that day by that number but if he really wanted me to have the puppies he could send them to me and when i picked them up i would sent him a check so this guy is a scam artist also
his name shannon_baker and also i had a call from cameroon money gram wanting me to wire 200.00 i couldnt even understand these people so i new there were not from the u.s.a
what can i say they puppy is all i have wanted for a very long time but it was a bit expensive more than the normal price they told me he told me the puppy is R,4000 but at the end i gave him R,5500 it’s not that bad for the puppy be very careful when buying from Cameroon here is their email you can contact them for more info at homes_forall@yahoo.com
This is just like all the other emails. You area scammer as well. You are just trying to urge people this because you work for them. ASS HOLE
I too contacted yorkies0007@yahoo.com. and their info was
pretty much the same, located in cameroon, looking for homes for their teacup yorkies. I started to question it because the pictures they had sent me, I had seen on other advertisements. I then decided to do a google search for teacup yorkie scams and found this. You can get scammed on the internet, but you can also save yourself from being scammed. My apologies to all those you have been taken.
Different email, same location (Camroon). I contacted cheny024@mailbolt.com (he also uses emails chenyp24@mailbolt.com, cheny224@mailbolt.com) about a teacup yorkie for a $210 “adoption fee.” When he emailed me back this is what he had to say:
Hello Tiffany,
Good day and thanks for the respond , the puppy is
still available and ready to move into a new home, she have all her
shots, she is registered and have a 100% health vaccination
guarantee,she is indeed a great companion who love to kiss and coudle,
she is 11weeks old and i am giving her out for an adoption fees of $210
she has a complete home training and she will never mess up your home
she is very friendly with kids and other pet in the house, she is just
as intelligent as a show dog but she is main to be at home. she will
weigh less than 3pounds as adult. I call her cuby and the name means
melt my heart, she always makes me feel proud with the way she do her
morning exercise, i hope if you have to adopt her you can continue with
that for me, it is very easy, she will come with a ring for that, you
just need to place it at your knee level and call her name say come on
cuby and she will run and jump through,
cuby has been my greatest source of comfort and i will not like to see
her surfer in any home, i have always enjoy the way she sit on my laps
and make me smile all the time and now that i am not able to take very
good care of her because of my work and present condition i think the
best thing for me to do is to get another home for her where she can be
well taken care of like the way i have been taking care of her,
I just moved out of the state 1 week and some days ago and i relocated
to cameroon limbe. along side with cuby and all her papers because i
though it
was going to be easy but now i don’t even have 1hours of my time to
dedicate it to her because i work all day and only have a 20minutes
brake a day so i really feel sad to see her lonely after all the
comfort she gave me in the past, I am ready to take care of her
shipping and delivery to your home if only you can
promise me that you
will take very good care of her in your home because i will not like her
to surfer in any home,
so if you know that you can take very good care of her then
get back to me with your full home address,location, full names and cell
phone number so that i can call you and discus this better with you on
phone, but i can only let you have her if you can promise me that you
will take very good care of her, waiting to read from you.
Thanks,
Cheny
I found one of his email addresses on a similar website talking about the Camroon pet scam and knew it was a fake. The phone number on the ad didn’t work anyway and there were several other red flags that made me very suspicious. Use your feelings and always check out as much as you can about the person. If you think it’s too good to be true, it probably is…
i am in process of trying to get an animal from cameroon a yorkie and i have sent 400$ to airport it self and now they want more and are not sending me anymore emails i am very upset with them and myself if anyone can help please email me at luckycarebear87@yahoo.com
You have been scammed. Do not send them any more money. You are unfortunately out the $400 and will never be able to retrieve it. A co-worker of mine was involved in a similar scam… no dog actually exists. These people are only creating road blocks to get more money out of you. They will use your pity for the animal (The animal is here at the airport…) to try to get more money out of you. It is all a made up story. Sorry you are out the money, but there are some who have ended up sending thousands.
you guys are to greedy we are just paying you guys back on what you did to our fore father
I HAVENT DONE SHIT TO YOUR FORE FATHER WHAT ARE YOU SAYNG DUMMIE

thanks
heres our correspondense…
hi there, O I loved the pics of kiki especially, I like the brown ones
I am in dallas tx with two daughters my older one just turned 2 yrs old and will be her new play friend and I am not a breeder I want a pet but would consider maybe in the future long from now breeding her just once I think if that, but Im not a breeder I have no other pets right now. I would deffintly take good care of whatever animal I got since I am huge animal lover. Rest assured I have been around animals my whole life includnig working at petsmart for 3 years as a dog bather and another grromshop for 2 years as a groomer and finally a third pet store as a dog bather again for 2 years lol. All in all I have 7 years working closely with dogs and thats how I based my decision of wanting a bully becuase I used to bathe alot of them and they were always so sweet tempered nd loving and cute when they grunt and snore lol. You never said what the adoption fee would be and what the pup would come with? So good talking with you hoppe to hearfrom you again Thanks Tiffany
Thanks for getting back to me.Kike is a very good baby that will always like to do as you will say.She listens to command and also loves to walk and play too with kids.She likes to sleep with people and also love to be carried in the hands.I know that she will be very glad to change a home.The reason i am giving her out is because of my working conditions.My working hours are too much and i have no time for her.and also because of the weather and climate here which i think is not good enough for her.And so i don’t want her to suffer and I want her ever happy.so i just want you to give her a loving home.I am located in Cameroon and i will be shipping her to you ok And she will be coming along with her health papers and the will be no holding of her for any quarantine,.All that you will pay is her shipping fare to your location which is $120 and i will ship her to you.So i will be needing your Delivery informations which are Your Names,State,address,Contact Number and nearest airport to your home ok .
I wait to hear from you asap
O ok, I saw the ad in a dallas tx website so I thought I wouldnt have to ship her. Anyways I am sorry I dont believe in shipping puppies especially have never seen it and just dishing out money to someone Ive never met becuase of all the internet scams out there. Good luck finding a home for her and the other I think Im going to look closer so I can visit the person and pick up puppy myself even if I have to pay more its worth the safety and security and peace of mind I get. Thanks Tiffany
Hello,Tiffiany
How are you today,I hope all is well with you,I’m very sorry to hear you sounding skeptic,Tiffiany,it seems that you are thinking that I wanted to take your money for what is not real, or I’m trying to take an advantages over you and your money. When I know how people work very hard and make their money,so I will never think about taking their money for what is not real. Try to understand me better.
I don’t have the money to ship the puppy to you right now, if I had the money, I’m such a man that can “truly give away his eyes to a complete stranger”, I’m an honest man. And I truly know how hurt it will be for some to take away my money like that.
However,as soon as I confirm the payment from you today the puppy will be shipped tomorrow and I will get back to you with the shipment and delivery informations of the puppy,Also let me know if you want the puppies grooming and feeding kits,so that I can pack them for shipment and also the papers should you decide to adopt the puppies and send the money.i wait to read from you.asap
and heres when I really chewed his A@@ out lol
Wow, this email only confirms my belief that you are a scammer, preying on innocent people who work hard for their money, who have children to take care of and all becuase what? You cant get off your butt and find work to make a decent MORAL living? I looked up Cameroon and it took me right to a website about you scammers there. Guess what! The emails the people posted had the exact same excuses for adopting out puppies as you did! Weather and working, huh, imagine that. At first I was like I hope this person isnt a scammer becuz I would feel bad about thinking wrongly of this person but now I know for sure and I will also be posting your emails and email address on this website stearing people away from you. this is disgraceful, immoral and injustice! I hope you dont treat your kids and your family the way you would treat an innocent person here in the states! God dont like ugly! and I DO believe in karma! GOODBYE!
hopefully we will start reading into these scammers more and wont give off the impression that we are all gulible and willing to just trust anyone with our money. Im very sorry for eall those who have lost money to these fake people but i guess its a lesson learned. I never knew this existed and now Im happy I do know.
I can not tell you people which you already know, that I am so infuriated that someone could even sleep at night after doing something so mean. Sorry i’m fuming… A man who called his self Desmond and his wife Lola Scott were selling there English bulldog pups for 500 and shipping for 200. I spoke with them on the phone at least 20 times before wiring money to them, Who live in Fort Lauderdale, FL. Im not even sure if thats where they’re from. I checked out the Phone num and it checked out. But apparently that doesnt mean crap. Just wanted to let everyone know not to send him anything.Hes a liar and a theif. Also his phone num is 786-837-6561
I have been looking for a puppy and have come across 4 people that had said about the same thing.. They were looking for a good home for there puppy but could not take care of him due to work or the weather. They have gone on to say that there dog will die with out the proper care. They tell you to send $100 dollars to them so the paper work can be done and they will take care of the air fair and your dog will be sent to you as soon as they get the money. Here is one of the e-mail I got a couple days ago…Hi Dear
i am so impressed and happy you got back for the babies
and at this moment i see you will provide all i need for them and
even spoil them more. so i just need the following information from
you then i will get the documents complete as soon as you send me
the $100 for them both. so please kindly email me the following
information then you van send me the money to complete their papers.
Your Full names???
Your State????
Your City?????
Your House Address???
Phone # ?????
Closest Airport To you ????
Zip Code????
So email me the following information i have asked from you
then we could prepare on the payments to complete the adoption
papers with your names on.so their flight to you will take approximately
8 hours as soon as we are complete signing the papers.
Waiting to read again from you as soon as you can.
There is more and the e-mails keep coming. If it was not for this sight then I would have been one of the unlucky ones that would have gotten ripped off. Thank you again for all of your messages. I hope that someone will read this and see that these are scammers looking to take your money. Maghon
well here is mine! you good houston area bull dogs though and she is the first link!This email is jesssica brown
Billy is the best you could ever think of. The reason
i am giving him up for adoption is because i relocated
in WEST PALM BEACH CAMEROON for some work.here the nature of
my job leaves me with lesser time to spend with
him and my landlord i believe is jealous of his
talents so he said he does not want his tenants to
live with pets in the building so i decided to give
him out to some one who will show much care and love
to him.if you will do just that for me then i will do
anything possible to get Billy to you.all i will
need from you after is to promise me that you will be
sending holiday pics of him to me via email so that i
will be sure he is loved where he is.billy is very calm
and playful with children and other home raised pets. he
can talk and recite verses but he does not talk
unnecessarily he is very welcoming to all. so where
are you located? how soon do you need him? all i need
is a good home and not really money. if i have your full
names and address, with the address of your local
airport, i will get him to you easily.how soon do you need him?.
i will be waiting on your soonest response!!!!!!!!!!!

A woman was giving away 2 English bulldogs cause she lost her husband & he was taking care of it. Wow dream come true for us. Woman is in Vancouver, all we had to do is pay plane shipping to NB, around $200.00. I called the airports already to make arrangements…so I did not have to give money upfront, only to pay the shipping at the airport… to the airline AirCanada Cargo. But I just received an e-mail from airport (but airport email looks weird CAMEROON PET DELIVERY AIRLINES:nationalairlinescam@AirportEmail.com) they have lost the dogs. She then emailed me a story on how she left the airport to go home to pick up there vet papers, but the airport lost the dogs & she needs help finding the dogs. Of course she will need financial help to find the dogs. She sent 2 pictures of the dogs & everything. Now this morning I can’t find her ad. We didn’t loose money in this thing because I was very cautious upfront. I’m glad I was cautious.
I’ve replied to the woman & fake airline:
I can’t beleive I have been had. You are a scam artists. All night all i could think of is how this could go wrong. I never thought about this scenerio. I supose now you are going to ask me for money to help you find the dogs! I’m too smart for your scams. My kids are so sad they are not getting puppies. I am blocking you from my list of all e-mails. Do not try to contact us or I will call the police.
So the airline replied:
DEAR SIR/MADAM,
WE HAVE SENT YOUR E-MAIL TO THE F.B.I,WE WILL HAVE TO KEEP THIS PUPPIES ON QUARRANTINE FOR 6 MONTHS.
WE WILL HAVE TO TRACE YOU UP TO EXPLANE TO US WHAT YOU MENT IN YOUR E-MAIL AND WE WILL GIVE YOU VERY HIGH CGARGES FOR THIS.

I did a research on this Cameroon pets delivery & found this. I’ve called our Local police station (RCMP), they gave me a phone # to call for Internet scams 1.888.495.8501… right now i’m hold for them. I’m so glad no financial information where exchanged.

Sorry you all but why should you be spending large sum of money on animals why you know people are dying of hunger in Africa and can’t help with that. So don’t blame those folks becos you prefer to help non human race to animals.
Help the poor by building a good economy like you are building for Iraq n other nations. If they are better like you they will never get you ripped off.
I have just recieved the same exact emails from this person…thanks for posting this. I never really believed him/her from the beginning, it was too good to be true.
I just saw this now.
It is suprising as I also bought a dog from the same guys and the dog arrived today with all the papers complete and a written 1 year guarantee.
I first saw your post last night but I already sent the money and the dog was to arrive yesterday but did not and when I saw this I told myself I have been scammed. This afternoon at Work Desmond called me from the 786-837-6561 phone number which I had checked out via the whitepages.com and it showed it was not a cell phone but a home phone and he said “I am so sorry for the late delivery and I asked him what he was talking about and he said the puppy would arrive in less than 30minutes. I went to the DFW and picked up my darling Sandy” I guess some people are lucky.
ADORABLE YORKIE FOR ADOPTION.

Smith Roscary was the name of our latest scammer. Adopt of her “baby” Yorkie. Hmm, you know I think we have had every possible scam there is since last year. We have supposedly won oversea lotteries we haven’t entered. Got really excited with the first one, we communicated for a long time with various contact people, so they thought we were hooked. Until it seemed we needed money to get the money out of the country. I asked if it was possible to leave it in an account over there as that particular account opening and transfer was free, until a later time as we truly couldn’t afford it. After that we never heard from them again. Admittedly I was green then. Suspicion was intial - but they got me believing, anticipating….which what made us so ill after. That there are people out there like that. After a lot of research I found I was not alone, with us our confidence knocked, trusted weakened, but others had gone the extra distance and lost actual money. I am glad we didn’t get to that point.
Now quite hardened by it all….once bitten - twice shy.
We still receive winnings notifications for every lottery imagineable, inherited money from complete strangers, are asked business propositions from Int. Banks that have clients die, clients with large sums of money that you can end up with a share of… And now refreshingly it’s all about a cute puppy dog….but at the end of it all it all leads to money I’m suppossed to give them. Junk Mail doen’t seem to ditch it automatically.
The only advice I could offer as most written here would know now already.
You might not let a wolf into your house if he was at the door, but he can come into you living room, study, office, bedroom - wherever there is a computer anytime he/she likes. Check everything out - back track through other channels aside from the ones they provide. Generally you just need to punch in whatever the offering is into Internet Explorer and “scam” and see what pops up. If in doubt that has always answered my questions about their legitimacy. And never take it personally as we did our first time…we lost a bit of faith in ourselves for not knowing better. We are much more savvy now. Don’t bite the bait!
I got scammed on Valentines day 08′. I answered an add in the Newspaper Florida Today for a yorkie female puppy. It was in the newspaper so i figured it was legit. Anyways this is her response:
Hello,
The puppy is AKC Registered, has all shots upto date and she’s vet checked. But unfortunately, she’s just been adopted, some minutes ago by Mr. Richard, and i was just been contacted by one of my customer that i sold some puppies to who mailed me just now to inform me that they are looking for a caring person to adopt their puppies.
Her name is Evangelist Sarah Macleans, she called me that she has been transfered to West africa on a christian mission, due to her immediate relocation, she went with her husband, and also had her puppies with her overthere.
Her commitment to the work of God could not enable her to stay with the puppies often according to her, and that the climatic condition of the country is too harsh for the puppies health, so she needs a caring parent who can adopt the baby back to the United State of America as soon as possible.
she will provide the shipping agent to have the puppies shipped back to you and you will only be paying for the shipping fee. I suggest you contact her soon as possible Via Email:
saramacleans@yahoo.com
She will be very much delightfull to hear from you, so as to have this puppies shipped to you asap.
She requested, a caring and loving parent for her babies and i am so sure she will be so excited if she knows I directed you to her. Kindly notify me immediately the babies are adopted.
Best Regards
And thats where it all began. I lost 500.00 and never got a puppy. I really think that something has to be done to the people who do this.

I am glad i could help anyone. That is why posted. I didn’t want them getting away with this again.
Hello Everyone,
I am a victim of a Cameroon Pet Scam and I have lost a bit of money to these people. I actually fell for this ad that I read selling a toy yorkie, a breed I had been looking for for a very long time.
I also want to get the word out about this scam so others do not get taken like I did.
I am asking others to contact me about their stories and let’s see if we can go after these scums that prey on animal lovers. I am so disgusted by this and it makes me never want to trust any internet or newspaper ads anymore.
Please email me at kimmersjc@sbcglobal.net with your story so that we can be one strong voice to possibly go after them. My name is Kimberley and I look forward to hearing your story. Please know I will never judge anyone as I am a victim too. If we just band together as one maybe we can be a strong voice to the authorities so we can maybe stop some of this.
Thank you everyone and like you, I am so sorry this has happened to all of us. We are not stupid people, our only mistake was that we love animals!
Why cant these people be caught, im an animal lover too, i waited and waited for two puppies, and they stole my money. Bensy Emma was the name on freeads.co.uk had to pay Besong Esame Ojong, Country Cameroon, City Limbe. my Granchildren were crying because of these evil people, I would love to see them sent to prison.

I emailed all my friends…
I am in the progress of finding the right puppy for me and found myself in the middle of a scam, a puppy scam originating out of cameroon africa. There are a huge amount of ads posted on the internet for free or way under priced puppies for sell (common breeds are chihuahua, yorkie, maltese and english bulldog) I stumbled across a website called examiner.com and found an ad for a free english bull dog puppy and replied to the ad. After several emails getting my hopes up about this so called puppy and this person speaking about how religious they are what kind of a family and hard working man he is I began to become suspicious. I asked were he was located and this is when I learned he was in Cameroon and was asking me to send hime my personal information so I could pay for the puppies shipping to the states which would supposidly only be 200 dollars. I have known of scams like the lottery scam and the scam of inheirited money so I googled cameroon and point is that every item that came up was titled scam! Do Not give these people your money! There is no puppy! I got onto one of the websites where people post their email correspondences with these scammers and have posted the scammers email address to stear people away form these scams. I noticed my guy was one on this list! I became very sad while reading countless posts of people who have lost thousands of dollars not to mention embarressment, guilt and shame for just not knowing. Being a home maker I have time on my hands so it is now my task at hand to contact these scammers in disguise of a buyer to post their email addresses and names on this website just to do my part. I hope that you all will become more aware that not all people are trustworthy. I think alot of us who are so excited about getting a puppy and finding the right price for us has overshawdowed our commen sense and so I just come to you with this messege.. BUYER BEWARE! It is more important to find a LOCAL seller who will meet with you so you can see for yourself the puppy so you can go home with peace of mind and a puppy! Even if it means paying alittle bit more because in the end if your not certain of something you might just pay more then you would otherwise. Thanks and here is that website link so you can share your stories or become more aware of this new scam that has plagued our country.
and put this website down as a reference for people to read all these stories.. I had everyone send to their address and even started going to all the classifieds areas and replying to the want ads and helped several people find the puppies and dogs they really wanted from trustworthy and experienced people I knew. I cant believe I actually saw an ad from these assholes on craigslist! we arent safe anywhere so just be careful and research before you send off money or like i said before better yet go to the person to pick up, never send money for a shipped puppy!
he doesnt have a clue what hes talking about, Ive changed his name twice and changed my name once, he never even noticed and dont worry, all my info i gave him was fake!
Thanks for getting back to me as i said i am in Greer, SC right now i have packed due to my new job and the puppies are here with me so there is no problem shipping the puppy to your place and if you don’t mind I can arrange for the shipment from here via home delivery through a shipping agent, kindly confirm your shipping address and you are only paying $350 it including shipping and payment is made via western union or money gram.
Thanks
what date(s) have you taken the puppies to the vet? 2 month
What is the name of the vet (for my vets records)? drlarrypetvet What have you been calling the puppies by name? Lu Lu
How big do you think they’ll get? weighed 6-8 lbs
And How much does the father and mother weigh? weighed 7-9 lbs
I wrote back..
hi john
my address is like i said before 4 Mcgree st. SC 76238 where should I send the money western union to? Ive never done western union so youll have to walk me threw it. What breed are you talking about selling me now? Because a english bulldog can weigh up to 75 and no less then 50 unless it is very much starved! So I dont know how your english bulldog parents can weigh 7-8lbs? whats the little boys name and how much of a discount if I buy both? I am willing to drive over there tommorow to pick up puppies and pay cash. That way I really dont spend extra on western union. What is your address and telephone number in case I do have to go to western union and have any problems? O and I looked up drlarrypetvet and says no such guy exists? So have you given the puppies their shots yourself?Thanks Stephanie

Hi, I am just writing to you guys, because I just been scammed. They stoled $1350.00 dollars from me. I was just trying to get some puppies, but it was a fraud, hopefully they will pay for what they did. these are the contact numbers they gave me 0023733046534, 0023775192957. and the address was in Douala, Cameroon. The names they gave me were barrister Collins, and Mario Williams.
Well from the first email I received (just like all the others on this page and many others)I could tell the intellegence level of the perseon replying was lacking to say the least! I opted to call a local breeder to see what an English Bulldog would cost. In Canada they said $2500 was a great deal. Fine. So why would someone in their right mind “sell” or give away a dog for under $500. There was my FIRST suspicion. Next, if you are buying any sort of dog you should be researching them. English Bulldogs DIE in exposure to heat. Do you really think that a healthy dog with those sorts of specifications would come from AFRICA? open your eyes people…be skeptic of this nonesense. My second email I recieved from these people asked for my info. I would not send it. I asked more questions, which in turn made them state things like “waiting” at the end of their emails. They would not accept paypal or anything like that and truly do you not think you could find a dog closer to where you live? I did not fall for this scam. I hope this information prevents further scams from people that are too dam lazy to get a real job instead of feeding off of innocent people. Support your local animal shelters and the country you live in. Do not let these morons steal from you. They also try to sell monkeys, parrots, exotic pets, dogs etc. Just a group of idiots with nothing better to do!!!!!!! YOU WILL NEVER GET YOUR PET SO DO NOT SEND MONEY TO THESE SCAM ARTISTS! I believe the one who contacted me was vitalipenn@yahoo.com They also contact breeders and tell them they have a litter where the mother died and they need a home for them. so breeders beware too.
Hello,
My name is Samaria White and unfortunately I have been a victim of this same scam. I have lost $1000 in this event. I cant believe that I was so stupid for falling for this cute little puppy. I am still in contact with the person who was selling the puppy everyday trying to convince him to give my money back. I have contacted the newspaper ot delete their ad, the FTC to report them and now I am in process of writing to television shows to air this matter. I want to fix this, it would be great for you to contact me and maybe we can put our ideas together on how to stop these people.

This man is very good at this scam. He had me hook line and sinker. I made the mistake of sending the first 98.00 and then I received the email from Delta shipping express needing 1500.00 for shipping. I talked to this man many times and I even call the airport wanting to know if insurance was required why did they not tell him when he dropped the dog off at the airport. They said they would make an exception and let me send money per money gram and I would receive a full refund upon arrival of the puppy. I contacted Dr.Bent and he said he could pay 520.00 if I could pay the rest of 980.00. I sent 200.00 which was all the cash I could get on such short notice, Thank God, He email me back stating he was at the airport and they told he me that the airport had received th 200.00 and would I please see if I could help find some more money. He would ship him out tomorrow. He was trying to borrow the money. I became concerned when I looked up the phone number online for the airport and nothing matched. Then I found this web site. Oh how I wish I had found it first.
Please let everyone know if it sounds to good to be true it is.

I was almost scammed, but this website saved me money! It is happening in Anchorage, Alaska.
Thank you for posting this. If you see the name Evangelist Sarah Macleans or pinkiegardens@yahoo.com, know that it is a scam.

last year i answered a post that was on craigslist and it sounded so legit.. and he said to send $$$ to Camroon. so I didnt think anything of it and i did,, and then the games began…he said that they needed more money cause it didnt cover the cost of paper work, and then he supposibly shipped the birds to air france and gave me a flight #.. and when i went to inquire they had no clue about any birds being shipped and the place that the birds were to be sent said they needed more money as well. so i sent all my info to the FBI here and I opened a fraud claim but i got no where..
his name was Paul Williams..
and i have just gave up on this so i threw out the info that i did have.. but i see theres alot of scams now again.. and some about finding a new place for a good home for a baby..
How can these people get away with this stuff? if a person sends moeny and has all this info on them why cant they just go and get the person and get our money back?
i wish i can pull off a scam like that and get away with it.. i would be alot richer then i am now…
tammybradigan@yahoo.com
I also have contacted many websites and even wrote a letter to dr.phil lol. I know that if enough of us send dr.phil or oprah a letter about what has happened to us with scammers they will do a story on it. Oprah is a huge dog lover and dr.phil also a dog lover but he has also done several stories on scams like the baby adoption scams, dr.phil scams so on. Also dateline would help to spread awareness. I am just continually sending letters hoping to get this on the tv somehow.
I was just going threw craigslist dallas tx pets and the scammers are on craigslist again with cockatoos. It was very noticible to me so I just flagged them and everytime I try to post awareness on craigslist they flag me so I try anyway.
If you have any success getting news folks and others to cover this tragic story, make sure to point out this thread at HelpMeRick.com. We have become one of the best sources online for information about this scam.
Now I’ve heard it all. See the following in the local news media

I have lost $2000 trying to get a puppy with the exact same emails but they are operation out of CYPRUS. And they are using the email address marylynnejones37@yahoo.com
Please don’t lose money like we have.
They told me they were in Nigeria and all I had to do was pay the freight for her “darling puppies”
My 10 year old is just sick that people would lie about dogs, God and to kids. That is just wrong!
I too call the local authorities but they said they could do nothing even though the original email was for a local address.
So now is she going to do crazy stuff since she has my address and stuff?
hahahah…i sent her a real nice heartwarming email on how I will take care of her and stuff, and when she replied, the spelling mistakes showed up..hahahha
this is beautifull…maybe i should mess with them now…
Anton,
Brampton, On Canada
I just graduated from school and my family saved for years to be able to buy me the puppy that I wanted since I was a little girl. I thought I was getting her and low and behold it was a scam. I dont have any money. I cant afford to have a car. I am lucky if I have enough money to actually eat warm food each day. and your telling me that it is my fault? If I were to scam someone and got caught, I would be thrown in PRISON, and that is exactly what should happen to these scammers. ‘SMart computer’, you just dont have a heart, just because there are people worse off than me does not mean my problems are any less significant! It is only a different perspective. These people work HARD for their money and expect to see somehting for it. They did not pay 1,000 dollars for a dog, they paid an average of 166 HOURS of work. So get over yourself….it is the scammers fault and they should be BLAMMED!

Hello again,
I think I am in love with all of them, but Murphy in particular catches my eye! How gorgeous they all are. Where is Crown City Cameroon? I would prefer to pick them up myself if at all possible. I would definitely take excellent care of your baby. If you would like I could continue to send you pictures as he/she grows, so you could have peace of mind knowing that Murphy is a happy, well-adjusted, spoiled dog. My information is…

If it is too far for me to travel to pick the puppy up, I can afford the shipping fee but would want to make the payment directly to the airline. I hope I did not offend you in saying that, but there are so many scammers out there. I could not bear to have my heart broken like that.
Talk to you soon,

I am located in Cameroun and will like to ask you some few question to know if you will be capable to have my babies.Where are you located?,do you have other home pets ,are they indoors or out door pets?our lovely babies are very much available for new home and they are very affectionate puppies.

Another email:

the male is $165 without shipping.so with shipping it will be $365.

*** So not only did the price change but she (MARIA LUZ) said she ONLY took payment via WIRE TRANSFER!!! I sent a follow up emailing calling her out on the scam and NEVER heard back from her again.
MARIA LUZ iwandat01@gmail.com
I saw an add online from our local paper The Houston Chronicle (chron.com)for tea cup yorkie. See his message below…
“Hello ,I am happy for your concern over this puppy.Melly is still available.She is a pure bred teacup yorkie puppy,4 months old,have taken all her vaccines,potty trained and also have been de-wormed.She now weighs 1.2Ibs and will be about 4 Ibs at full grown.She is a darling loving puppy and i must tell you that i only have to part with her because righ there on my internship in cameroon La i am to tight up in a way that i can not be looking after her again.Just to know your intentions,if you must really be interested in her then i will send her over to you from here and as i want just a good home for her you will only have to provide for her transportation charge which is $150 no additions.You may get back to me your full names and also the name of the closest airport to you if you are ready for her,so that i can make her transportation arrangements.Please see her most recent pictures attached.I wait for your reply.
Best Regards,
Edmond.
I then asked him some more questions because I thought when he said Cameroon La that he meant Cameron, Louisiana which is very close to Houston, Tx. This is they reply I got…
“Well i earlier told you in my last email that she have grown up in an Environment with children as so she i very friendly,please she will be the best companion for your kids.She is trained to go out side when the door is open and will do it on papers when the door is closed.I already told you that she is akc registered and have taken all her vaccines so will send her along with all these papers because she will only be able to travel along but with the papers.She will only come along with the papers as its not safe giving the papers of a puppy to a person who is not the owner of the puppy.Like i told you earlier i am on my internship in Cameroon La,that is the La republic of cameroon and not Louisiana.Please get back to me the name of the closest airport to you and your full names so that i can start making her flight reservation,that being only if you are willing to take her.Waiting for your reply.
Edmond”
I then figured out it was Cameroon Africa and this must be a scam. After further Googling the subject of Cameroon and pet sales, I realized it was a scam and asked the guy to send me another photo of the dog with a piece of paper in the picture with today’s date written on it because I thought that he was scamming me. Needless to say, I have not heard from him since. The email address he used was seasonpets@aol.com. PLEASE beware of these people!!!! I am so glad I found this website and many others stating the same thing!!
I am Barrister Musa Mohammed, a solicitor at law, personal attorney to Mr P.B IRVINE, a national Of your country,who used to work as a contractor in Lome Togo. Here in after shall be referred to as my client. On the 30th of April 2006, my client, and their only daughter were involved in a car accident along Kpalime express Road.
All occupants of the vehicle unfortunately lost there lives. Since then I have made several enquiries here to locate any of my clients extended relatives, this has also proved unsuccessful. After these several unsuccessful attempts,I decided to searchthrough with his name which motivated me to contact you, to locate any member of his family hence I contacted you.
I have contacted you to assist in repartrating the fund valued at US$12.7Million left behind by my client before it gets confisicated or declared unserviceable by the Bank where this huge amount were deposited.
The said Bank has issued me a notice to provide the next of kin or have his account confisicated within the next twenty one official working days. Since I have been unsuccesfull in locating the relatives for over 2years now, I seek the consent to present you as the next of kin to the deceased since you have the same last names, so that the proceeds of this account can be paid to you.Therefore, on receipt of your positive response, we shall then discuss the sharing ratio and modalities for transfer.
I have all necessary information and legal documents needed to back you up for claim. All I require from you is your honest cooperation to enable us see this transaction through. I guarantee that this will be executed under legitimate arrangement that will protect you from any breach of the law.
Please get in touch with me for more details.
Best regards.

I answered an ad the end of last week about a tea cup yorkie puppy, and have since found out it was a scam….after sending $1000 for a puppy that was only supposed to be $100 to ship. It started with the $100 shipping fee, then I received an email from the shipping company that I needed to send $350 for a refundable insurance fee, then received an email from the airline that I needed to send $750 for a refundable quarantine fee for him to be checked by a vet and then shipped…well, this morning “after he saw the vet” I received an email from the airline that he needed 4 vaccines and would have to send $1712 for a refundable vaccine fee…That is when I finally caught on…talk about stupidity….needless to say, I am out $1000…
I was only able to email with the “sender” of the puppy because the phone number he gave me had too many digits at the end so it did not work. Now that I have sent all this money over there, I no longer hear anything from the sender.
My family is devastated to not be getting this puppy, but more than that, they have devastated us financially. The name and email of the sender that I have is Chris James [roosemary90@yahoo.com].
Thank you for allowing me somewhere to vent about this.
I am really sorry to hear this happened to your family. This happened to me valentines day this year. my post is down below. I feel your pain and i am sorry you have to feel what your are feeling. I wish these people could be caught.
I should have added in my originally posting that this Chris James person is located in Cameroon Africa. And like the others I have seen, he claimed his duty there was tight up and he could hardly spend time adequately caring for and loving them. In one email I sent him, I did tell him I thought it was a scam and he got back to me and was very upset with me and talked me into believing he was not and knew nothing of the refundable insurance fee. I did the same with the airline today and they “insisted” that I retract that statement…which I refuse to do. The airline name used was French International Airlines….they don’t exist…the shipping company was Pets Relocators….they do not exist either.

What a bunch of idiots !! They fall for all the bull splashes and apparently most never read the newsparers or the internet—and finally they find “good old Rick “”
I have a bridge to the moon for sale. Only ten megabucks !! You could set up a toll gate and make a killing !!
Contact “you are an idiot.com “” Cash only !!
I can’t believe there are people like you. you must be perfect and very smart and have probably never made a mistake in your life. There are very nice and trusting compassionate people in this world unfortunately i guess you are not one of them. Good luck with that!!!! Have you ever heard “If you have nothing good to say , then don’t say anything at all”? You should try that.
Thank you for your sympathy for what I am going through. We have listed their emails and IP addresses on other sites, contacted the local authorities and filed and Internet Crime Claim and are looking to further work with the FBI to see what we can do about them. After some talking to them, they claimed they would refund the money the next morning by Moneygram as they had had me do….but, of course, we are still awaiting the refund. Although my children are a little older, this was a very wanted pet, and we are all very hurt in regard to what they did…not only financially, but in our hearts.
Dear Friend,
My name is Sarah G. Smith I am 24 years old, from London -England, where I school and work as a fashion designer for part time job after my school. I am the only daughter of my parents, my father died in a fatal auto accident on his way to see my aged sick mother at the hospital where she was admitted for Cancer treatments, my mother also died when she heard about the death of my father the same day at the hospital.
Before the death of my father, he had Willed part of his Real Estate Business, Petrol Stations and a total sum of £50,700,000.00 (Fifty Million, Seven Hundred Thousand Pounds Sterling) to me. After the death of my father,things have become very hard for me paying my school fees, putting food on the table and taking care of my other needs which my fashion designer work can not help, I went to the bank where my late father deposited the funds on my behalf to withdraw some amount of money to take care of my self and pay for my school fees and other bills.
I was shocked when the Bank Manager explained to me that I will not be able to withdraw from the deposited money, because my late father had put a clause on the Will, which he used in depositing the funds with them, saying that before I will be given access to the money, I will either have to be 30 years old or I will be given access to the money if I get married before the age of 30 in which case my husband will be legible to collect the money on my behalf by standing in as my late fathers next of kin to claim the deposited funds on my behalf.
Today I am only 24 years old and I have no access to the money till I’m 30 years. So, I’m contacting you to stand as my husband to claim this fund on my behalf even if you are already married you can still help me by standing in as my late fathers next of kin to the deposited funds.
So please get back to me as to know how you will be remunerated as I will part with 40% of the total sum £50,700,000.00 (Fifty Million, Seven Hundred Thousand Pounds Sterling),while 10% will be mapped out for any expenses that we’re to use to receive the money from the deposited Bank.
Please remember that I am writing you this email purely on the ground of trust so we can achieve this deal together. This transaction will last for two weeks after you get back to me on how serious you are to claim these funds on my behalf.Please reply to my alternative E-mail: miss.gracesmith2007@yahoo.co.uk
Yours Truly,
Sarah G.Smith.
Hello everyone,
I have also been a victim of this scam artists, but as a journalist, i investigated and found out the reasons they scam.
it is true reaping people off their money isn’t correct. but in this case one does it not for the fun of doing it but because they need the money. Saying that children do not go to school again but rather sleep in cyber cafes is not true. Most of them use this money gotten from scam to pay their school fees and buy their books. It should be noted here that cameroon is a third world country in which the standards of living are very low. people still die of hunger in Cameroon just because they have no income. Recently and to be precised, on the 25 of February 2008, there was strike action in cameroon which was initially started by transporters and became a scene of inferno when the youths joint it because of the poor standards of living.
There are university graduates now in the job market who paid their fee from these scams because their poor parents could not do anything for them let alone the Gov’t of cameroon. These people have always looked up to the world powers to come to their rescue of changing the gov’t in place if there could be change in the ways of living but to no avail.
This question i have asked many times without an answer ” why can’t We the Americans help Cameroonians who are dying of hunger by donating something and sending to them through American NGOs or any American body; But rather We spend money for Animals, Non human beings? This will be true if i say We will rather prefer a human being to die than see “Yorkie” dog hurt. We have to safe this part of the world bye showing our Respect for the Human Race than making them mean to Us.
they are not as poor as you think they are if they were really poor they could not afford computers and the internet . what is wrong with the U.S.A is we feed people like this and we have homless and starving people right here where we live in the u.s.a you dont need to be feeling sorry for these people this is the way its always been in africa.i dont know about you but i work hard everyday and it makes me mad for someone to try and scam me out of money that i have worked hard for..my daughter just graduated college and we didnt have any help i worked for 4 years paying for college. they have no right to be mean to us what have we ever done to them nothing..they avertise on t v all the time to feed africa and people donated thousands of dollars they need to worry about feeding he u.s.a people we are already in a mess over grocary cost and fuel cost its gona be a depression right here in the u.s.a
You are either very naive or stupid! I dont care what situation they are in they dont have a right to lie and cheat their way threw hard times. Sometimes its hard to find the money to pay rent or buy food but I dont go into the grocery store stealing and I cant live rent free (id get kicked out)! Those things are against the law and so should the scams they pull there! If I can donate money or whatever I can then thats my choice. But dont give me a guil,t trip becuz they stole my money, gave me and my kids false hopes, let us down, stole from us and made us feel like crap becuase we were actually stupid to fall for those scummers! You might as well be one of them promoting to take our hard earned money!
I wont money for a better life is it ok for me to steel your’s ?
Why can’t Cameroonians immigrate to another country where they would have a better life rather than rip honest people off. All of these people worked for their money and I’m sure they didn’t have it to lose. If you want charity or help seek the Red Cross and be honest. It is not my fault that the country is still stuck in the dark ages and over produce. If I couldn’t feed myself I wouldn’t be looking to have sex and produce another person that will starve. If you want to defend a cause you should pick something a little more noble than starving Cameroonians that can’t figure out irrigation of crops or the over population. Oh, and by the way, what kind of journalist can’t spell or use proper punctuation? My ten year old could have written a more professional blog. You are probably one of the scammers!!
First of all, I would like to say that you may need to go back to college to take an English course if you truly are a journalist, because your english/grammar is quite lousy. I think it is truly sad if the only way they know how to make money is by lying, cheating, and stealing and preying on innocent Americans with their fake sob stories about being “Christian” and their spouses dying; they should know they are going to spend an eternity in HELL.
America did not become the great nation that it is today by having theives at its heart; Americans are good, honest, hardworking people. We are not all naturally wealthy and living the “American Dream.” Some of us are students fighting to make ends meet and struggling to buy our books so that we CAN learn. SO, don’t sit there and say that we Americans have it easy and don’t have to fight for what we want, because for many of us; we do have to fight to become educated while trying to afford food to feed our families. PS. If you live in America; please do us all a favor and move the hell out, go give your money to the “GOOD PEOPLE” of Cameroon…;-))

Are we Americans the only ones being taken to the cleaners by scams?
WHY would anyone deal with other countries, when we have e/thing right here in the US of A? (not that e/American is honest either) A nation that’s supposed to have some smarts, we seem to be either lacking……or selfish. What ever happened to the ole saying….”If it sounds too good to be true???…etc.etc” WHO has EVER gotten anything for nothing or next to nothing? WHY would anyone forfeit their hard earned $$$ when the price of e/thing has already become so inflated.
My personal favorite being gas. Yet what large company has raked in what kinda profit for a mere quarter last year? Isn’t that news item similar to twisting the already inserted blade??? ;(

I was also taken but with me it was baby ferrets. I love ferrets and it is hard to get baby ferrets. The add offered babies 9-11 wks old. All i had to do was send 510.00 and i would get 2 babies and a large cage delveried to my door. I thought i was smart and asked for proof. I got 4 emails from so called happy clients. I asked if 510 was the full bill and was told over and over it was. Until pet relocaters contacted me then i knew something was funny and found this web site wish i had found it before, god i feel so dumb, i got the whole story of health papers, wanting a good home and all that. I wasn’t looking for a bargin, the ferrets were 150.00ea and the cage 210 which is about what it costs here not that much of a bargin. i just wanted babies. Be warned they are also selling, monkeys, rare cats, ferrets,parrots and everything else they think some one wants. I have no way of getting my money back but i am going to make sure every ferret owner in canada is going to know about this scam. I am going to contact all ferret clubs, groups etc that i can find. We will never get our money back but revenge is healing, let any and all clubs, groups what ever know what is going on,i am going to take out ads in local papers. Knowledge is power, if i can stop one other person from being scammed then it was worth it. signed fuzzy
I was looking to get a Yorkie as a pet. They are so adorable. I searched on the Internet for them, then came across a ad saying the puppy was free for adoption. I e-mailed the advertiser and it turned out that it was Isis Barnes (Baris18361@yahoo.com) I thought it was to good to be true, but keep e-mailing the guy who was located in Cameroon, Africa. I live in Sioux Lookout, Ontario and told him that the distance was to far and it would cost too much for the shipping since the vast distance. He then replied and said it would only be $250. I thought that was crazy. That long distance all the way from Africa and I live in Ontario and it would only cost $250. I then looked up his name and then came to this website where scams have been found to be occurring in Cameroon, Africa. I am not falling for this and am so glad that I followed my instincts. Anyone else out there that comes up on a ad similar to the ones noted in any of the above messages don’t be fooled!!!
I was almost taken as well….. Thank you for such a site so we can all beware…. here is a copy of the email….

Thanks for your mail regarding my puppies….I have two still available to any one prepared to provide them with enough care and love,where they will be well spoil with all their need…..they are now 10 weeks old and they have very good temperament with kids and other pets,very playful love to play around with toys and kids,they are health guaranteed and DNA tested…..they are up to date on all their shots and they will be coming along side their health papers and vet records……They are called Sarah and Banly and i am actually giving them out because they were always cared and looked after by my Husband(Martin) but with a heavy heart i lost Martin and Martin was all i got ,i work with a global,broad-based health care company devoted to discovering new medicines, new technologies and new ways to manage health.Martin died in an accident last 2 weeks on her way back from work and i have very bad memories when i see these puppies
around me,because they were always together with my husband since i am always busy in the laboratory.i really need to give them to someone who can really care and love them just the way Martin used to.These puppies have been very lonely since Martin passed away so the best thing i decided on as my colleague advised me was to send them to a loving home .i really count on you if you can be there for them..I am located in Cameroon and i am only asking $110 for one and $220 for both to ship them to you…..Please may i also ask you a few questions?
where are you located?
are you a breeder?
do you have kids?
Can you also promise that you will take good care of them?
How soon are you ready to have them home?
At least with this informations,i will get to know better where they will be going to…….See their pictures below.Sarah is the female
puppy while Banly is the male puppy.i just hope you will love them…..I will also like you to promise me that you will always send their pictures to me monthly so that i can see how they are doing in your home……Below is an attachment of their most recent pictures for you to see.i will be waiting for your mail asap. thanks and God bless.
i nearly got scammed in england. i live in london and i was looking for a pug puppy well i e-mailed people who advertised themselves in london to find out they had moved to liverpool or even scotland and they would happily ship the puppy to me. well after tthe 3rd ‘moved’ pup i said well thats lucky as my friend lives just down the road she will come pick up the puppy, to be them told the pup could only be shipped i told them to stuff it and reported the advertiser to the web site! beware of priests selling dogs or if the person says they have lost a husband/wife who looked after the puppy they may not be true! look more local don’t go for the cheap it’ll cost more in the end!!!!
This is the email I have for Chris James in Cameroon. He just scammed me out of $158.00 for the non-existing Yorkie Puppy. I am extremely angry and I am going to do all I can within my power to contact the Cameroon African authorities as well as the FBI and let them know this is going on. I am reporting everything. I still have every email sent to me and all correspondence and I have the copy of my Western Union money transfer, with his name, address, phone number EVERYTHING. I am determined to put this guy in jail. He is a no other then a THEIF. I am sick to death of the imorality of people in this day and age and their disregard for others. It is the reason we cannot seem to ever reach an agreement on a global scale for world peace, because too many people are so dishonest and full of disrespect. I will also contact Dateline, and attempt to contact 20/20 also so we can stop these scammers from going forward.
I happened upon this just like the rest of you. Almost sent the money and when Western Union wouldn’t allow my transaction to clear I got a feeling it was for a reason since I have plenty of money. I started googling anything on the paperwork received from the “transportation company” and nothing proved of a legitimate nature. The only thing the even pulled up was the Air Cargo World which is a magazine. I am glad that I was able to find this out before I sent the $. I am very nervous that they have all of my personal information as far as my telephone # and address but other than that I was saved from the terrible fate that most of you suffered. The worst is that my family was so excited to get this new little baby…
Sad that there is such a mentality out there but they will get what is coming to them some day soon!!
Make sure the Cameroon authorities know about this thread at HelpMeRick.com
He got you just two days before he got me. What’s worse it that I felt funny right up until the time I sent the money and I made 14 attempts to decline but I was too late. He had to have been right there to get the money or working with someone at Western Union. I can not stand for people to speak of God or family members who have passed on for personal gain. I wish I could look at this as a charity gift but I just can’t he stole from me. Yeah some may think well you were foolish to go along with it, true I was but I was also giving this person the benefit of the doubt and trying to go on good faith and trust. I remember a time where we did not have to think twice, be doubtful of our brothers and sisters or even be afraid of things like scams. I prayed on this btu I guess when my maching acted up more than once, that was a supernatural sign to stop while I’m ahead. I will do whatever is in my power to help you get the word out to the masses of people everywhere about such scams. It would be nice to be reimbursed but I am not going to cry over spilled milk. Let’s just band together and get this criminal off the net, street, wherever. It can be done. I work in the federal government in Washington, DC and I am going to ask around my job about things like scams such as this one to see what if anything I can do. I am sure the IRS has connections worldwide on bogust activity.
I am currently having a bit of a jest fest with a fellow in Cameroon dealing for a Hyacinth Macaw which can cost up to 15,00.00 but this one (his baby, again) is for free if I pay only shipping. I haggled and got him to agree to pay for half! WooHoo! I’m a winner! I’ve enjoyed playing along and making up some stories myself. I do have a friend who works at U.S. embassies worldwide and my CaMORON friend will allow him to pick up the bird. Sure, I think my bluff is being called. Time to up the ante. Cheap entertainment anyway. Sorry to the folks who got burned but there are some very talented people out there. My ex’s best friend introduced us to her new boyfriend who immediately befriended everyone around and ended up scamming her. I fortunately was cautious (much to ex’s anger. all she saw was $$$) and escaped unharmed. Years later I see him being interviewed on MSNBC from prison. Made the FBI’s top 15. He was very good. James Rubin Rowe if you care for some light reading. Best wishes to all
I got an email out of the blue today for being a nanny to some guy for his kids coming from iceland. I have never posted anywhere on the net that I am a nanny or have ever babysat. I responded that he didnt even know if i had been to prison or was a sex offender so it only equals up to a scam especially the price he was willing pay for me to nanny for him. Heres the email I got from him.

Seemed too good to be true if you ask me, especially now that I know about this webpage. But we’re taking everyones advice about seeing and holding the dog before giving any money. The FBI told us not to send anymore money or reply to anymore emails and they were reported on http://www.ic3.gov which is a good site to report frauds on. He was also reported on yahoo but we’re looking for a way to report him in Cameroon..If anybody knows how to go about that or what else we can do please reply.
Hello everyone,
Im so sorry to hear that you all got scammed also. I also was scammed from a woman named Mary Ann in Cameroon. She asked for only 200$ Then 400$ for the extra vaccinations to get my supposedly yorkie pup named “sissy” delivered TOTAL=$600. I fell for it not knowing anything about all these scams they were pulling!!! But for some reason she stood in contact with me saying she was gonna pay me back and all this. But I didnt believe her of course. But i made up this bluff that I was gonna report her to FBI to track down her email usage and get in contact with Western Union to have them pull footage for there identity.!! crazy i know. I was angry.!! Well anyways 5 months later after she writes me saying she sent the money in my name at western union.But she sent $1200 saying to get my share and send her the rest.(maybe she got scared i dont know but it worked!) I didnt believe her but i called anyways just to see if there was a money order and sure enough there was!!So right away went and cashed it. Then she sent another one for $400.Saying just to send that one to her new address. SO I START THINKING WHATS GOING ON!! IS SHE USING ME AS AN ADDRESS TO SCAM SOMEONE ELSE. Supposedly it was from her sister for a parrot she wanted to buy from down there in cameroon. The money was sent from a different name and from south carolina.So i told her i wasnt going to send the extra money because i didnt know why she sent it to me in first place!! And if this is legit have her call me not email because anyone can make a yahoo mail pretending to be someone else. Yeah i got alot of hate messages saying she going to call police but i wass like send them ill tell them what you did in first place. And that i didnt ask to get out in situation. But she stopped emailing me and i never got that phone call!!!!
Love the way these people, say they are preachers, what a way to gain trust.And thats how they do it. I was looking for a Yorkie last year and came across one of these adds Of course the puppy was up to date on all her shots, house broken, comes with cage and toys. And all they wanted was a shipping fee hmmmmmmm. Well I do some searching and sure enough it was a scam, oh and by the way he was a preacher on a mission in Africa, and it was too hot for their pretend Yorkie. I decided to mess around with these people. Alot of emails back and forth me asking question after question, and them asking me if I made it to wire the money. I would reply sorry something came up today and I will get the money to you tomorrow. After several emails I decided to let them have it. I wrote: Sorry took me a while to get back with you, I have decided not to take your Yorkie, but since you live in Africa I was thinking you could save my pet Giraffe, hes just a baby and is up to date on all his shots. He comes with a cage and toys he loves to play with. Kentucky is too cold for him and he eats my neighbors leaves off their trees. Just ask and I will send you pictures. Promise you will take care of my baby giraffe. Needless to say this really ticked them off, and I believe they cussed me out, but it was well worth it.

I was alsmost scammed yesterday from a Michael Alain i think it was m.alain20@yahoo.com. Thanks to all of you guys i have my 250$ still intact and am looking locally, even if paying a little more for my puppy. Basically there are NOT ANY legit puppy sales out of Cameroon. Think about it, airlines are not going to bring an animal from AFRICA here to the states, not only that, the cost of fuel is way more than these people are asking, the airline shipping in the US to the US is around 200$. If it sounds too good to be true then it probably is!!! Thank God my hubby is way more skeptical than i am and figured this whole thing out. They even told us stories of there spouses dying which i now know is sooo popular with these people. DONT BELIEVE IT. These blogs are great and really help people this is my first one, but with the economy the way it is, espically now, people need to be warned of scams like this and KEEP your money. TIFF (GA)

Good day,
Thanks for the mail.We knew from our prayers that God was going to make a good choice for Billy.We are happy to read from you once more.We are also very happy to know that you are pet lovers and can take good care of Billy,we were just scared because we have read about some people that maltreat animals for pleasure in the name of bloody dog fight games.My family and i have just relocated to the Spanish city called Barcelona ,we work for the Baptist Mission and our job is so demanding living us with no time to take good care of our baby .Billy will come along with all vet papers and a one year health guarantee.All we need for him is much love and care.We dont feel comfortable selling him but If you are willing to take care of the change of ownership papers and we will take care of the shipping fee then we can have him ship to you.If you dont feel comfortable to take him let me know immediately and so i can adopt him to another family.We hope to read from you.Have a nice day.GOD BLESS YOU.

I guess that it is the same group running around changing their information to try and stay one step ahead in the game. Well boys and girls… here is another web address for the English Bulldog scam. The web address is http://www.carranza22.22web.net.
I was actually able to chat with this so called individual online. They were using a Google e-mail account(c.carranza@gmail.com). They are as phoney as a three dollar bill! I knew that they were fake, so I played along with them as long as I could. After exchanging a few e-mails, in which they didn’t answer some very key questions… I stopped replying to them for about 2 weeks. They stated that they were in Lake City, California and when I had asked them, they were still there! But then when I asked for a phone number so that I can contact them on the dogs in question, they gave me this number: 0112377558419.
I asked them if this was a number in the United States, and they told me that they were currently in Cameroon. How nice! Their excuse was that they were with the WHO (World Health Organization) and that they were going to be there for a few more weeks. On top of that, they had a loss in their family (sympathy vote).
I gave them the run around for awhile, before I finally threw in the towel. This is a scam. It’s not too well thought out, but they are a phoney as the day is long. Once again, if it seems too good to be true, then it probably is!
BEWARE!
Not only are people being fooled by the scams to send money for free animals, but they are being asked to receive funds or cash money orders and wire back money. Internet fraud is everywhere, but PLEASE, don’t send or receive anything from Africa.
There is an article listed here from a victim that was actually reimbursed then asked to send back a portion of the funds (that’s what I gathered). This issue, along with the attempts to have you accept money, then wire it back is MONEY LAUNDERING. It is ILLEGAL for you and for them. Many times, the money orders that are mailed are fake or have other illegal matters tied up in them; when you go to cash them, you become an accomplice.
I have experienced several email relationships with the puppy “owners” in Cameroon, and people in Nigeria that need money orders/checks cashed here and sent back. Fortunately, I never fell victim to their thievery. One puppy owner told me it would take 8 hours 36 minutes for the t-cup yorkie puppy to arrive to my home. In the same initial email they asked me, “what state do [I] live in?” (linda smith)
In these 3rd world countries, computers ARE expensive; but that doesn’t restrict anyone from its access. Many cities offer internet cafés, so even a homless guy on the street with a few pennies to spare can pull these tricks. People get creative when they need or want money. Unlike most honest people that create legitimate businesses to provide jobs for others or secure their financial future, criminals create ways to steal and take what they can without working too hard; they get greedy.
These are SCAMS and can not only hurt your pocket financially, but you could end up being prosecuted criminally for your involvement. Just some extra words of advice . . . hope this will help someone before it’s too late.
Thank God for this web site…..I have been searching for an english bulldog and found a few. They all live in cameroon,how funny! Thanks so much whoever decided to take a stand and tell others!!!!

This was sent to me from “BARBARA OGSTON” barbnogy@yahoo.com
I responded to a classified ad in that was listed at a reputable website from a lady selling her Toco Toucan pair at a low price. When I started to correspond with them, they said that the lady was deaf and could not talk on the phone and that her son did all of the speaking for her. I was given their number and everything. I sent over $400 for shipping and told I could pay the balance when they arrived. Then was asked to pay an additional $200 for a “Transfer of ownership” paper that was required by the government there, before export. During this, the man said that his mother was in the hospital and the next day she died. I felt so bad, and he said that he was broke and now a International Health Certificate was required and that the birds were now in England waiting to get the next flight over. I broke off communications at that point, realizing it was not what it seemed. I knew that it was a risk and talked with several friends prior to sending the first money. I had not seen this website at that time. I decided that if it was a scam, that I figured it was to make up for all of the “Starving Children” ads that I have passed up over the years. All one can do in this situation, is figure it was a gamble that I lost and learned from it. It was amazing how detailed their story is. They have several people involved, that act as different government officials and airport personnel. They can’t spell very well and avoid answering direct questions on the phone, by saying that the connection is bad. It is very sad and I feel very foolish. The e-mail I was given was hollylongpets@yahoo.com and the phone numbers were:0023799189821, 0023779366622 and 00447031887301. They sound very nice and talk a lot about being Christian (hoping it is a soft spot in our hearts).

Thanks for listening.

Hey! I wish i saw this site before i decided to try to get an english bulldog over the internet. I had no idea about the Cameroon Scams! I havent yet seen this email Address on this site or other sites yet. here are a few emails. This guys claimed that he brought the puppy “Leroy” to the shipping agency and that the shipping agency would get in contact with me on how to make the payments and such. They told me the only thing i had to pay was $550 for the adoption fee and transfer of ownership papers into my husband and I’s name. I was told to transer the money via money gram at walmart. So I did. Then, i receieved an email the next day saying that leroy couldnt get onto the flgith because i didnt pay the $1750.00 for the insurance to cover the puppy in flight, and that it would be refunded to me once the puppy was delivered to me. So i paid it, not thinking anything about it. then, after i didnt recieve the puppy, i got worried and emailed this supposed reverand back and told him what this shipping agency was up to. Then shortly after, the shipping agency called me from an international number stating that the vet checked the dog and said because of its behavior it needed 3 different shots. Each shot was $300 each, and then a vet fee of $50 equaling out to the sum of $950.00. I tld the guy that i was not going to send it, that i woulod come up to washington dc (dulles international airport) to get the dog and drive back down to NC where i live. My husband an I drove to washington DC and there was no puppy, They said that they were in washington state. his exact words were “no maddam, your not listening to me, we are in washington state, where the white house is. you know, where the president lives, not washington dc” yeah, I am deffinatly an idiot after that one. So my husband and I sent the $950.00. After i sent that, they sent me flight information and that i would recieve the puppy, this morning at 11:10am. Before i was about to leave for the airport, the guy called me and said maddam, your puppy is now in GA but due to some problems, we need you to send over $1500.00″ me and my husband were like are you serious?! They said they needed a new crate for the puppy,($500), $650 to get the puppy out of quarnitine, and $350 for the feeding of the puppy while in flight. me and my husband said forget it, and researched puppies online and found out that cameroon was a scam!! I wish we found out about this sooner!!!! so people please READ THIS!!!! DONT FALL VICTIM OF THESE CAMEROON SCAMS.!!!! THESE PEOPLE ARE VERY SNEAKY and will do what ever it takes to get money.
here are some emails and such

I new that according to the fligth details yousent to me leroy would be arriving you this morning today.So i was really disturbed by the issue at hand and so i tried calling the shipping agency and they told me that they where still in washington and also that due to the bad wheather conditions they could not have the puppy ship ped presently and that there is a situation at hand they told me that we are suppose to pay a refundable insurance of $1750 as the puppy has not yet been insured.they also gave me their insurance dept relay toll number which is 01123774470555 that you could call them for more clarifications.I do not know if you have that sum as it is refundable so that you could have the baby and upon delivery you would be given back the money.So please as soon as you get this mail do email back with any questions so that we can see how we could get leroy from there to you since as they say if we do not pay the money he would be placed in quarantine.

DEAR Mrs. ANITA-MARIE AND GABRIEl,
Your puppy arrived here from Animailers pet travel agency to be checked before it can continue its flight to OAJ airport and after the check it was found that all the documents that a pet need to have before it can be allow to be shipped within and out of the US region were in tag but the refundable life insurance fee for your puppy has not been paid,so below is a better explanation of the refundable life insurance fee from the pets department:
The Pets Control Department of Dulles International Airport, after the First Stop of your English Bulldog Puppy at the final US check Point Terminal 1 wishes to bring the following to your attention:
1. Following the International Aviation’s Commission’ Rules and Regulations on Pets Transportation and section 12 sub paragraph 2, “… the life of all animals being transported from One Country to another through US must be fully Insured by an Insurance Cooperation at the country or region of Origin against any eventuality.
2. Following a compromise between the US Aviation’s Complaint Commission and the US Financial Commission, it was concluded that “..the life of all pets being transported through the US to another country or region will be insured and this insurance fee should vary from one pet to another depending on Financial Value of the Animal.
3. We also wish to let you know, according to the US Price Determination Commission, the price of any Bulldog Puppy is
$3500.
From the above, the Refundable Life Insurance fee you are supposed to pay for a Bulldog Puppy is $1750 and your Bulldog Puppy can travel through its life time through the US without any problems.
Due to a good number of complaints by clients to Dulles International Airport about this Insurance Scheme, the Management of Dulles International Airport authorities in collaboration with the US aviation Commission came out with a Partial Refundable Animal Life Insurance Scheme,which provides for the following:
You could use our Partial Insurance Scheme to Insure your puppys’ Life for half the cost of the Bulldog Puppy which will be refunded to you once your puppy is delivered to you, and you will have to pay an extra $30 for our services.
This means you will have to pay the sum of $1750 which is half the cost price of a Bulldog Puppy in the US region and $30 for our services, which gives you a total of $1780 and $1750 will be refunded to you when your puppy is delivered to you at your home address below.

Dear Client ,
We wanted to inform you that your puppy arrives here at Georgia and that there are some problems which we would like to let you know about before the puppy continues his journey.
Firstly the crate in which the puppy was put into has some problems due to the weather conditions and also it would not be comfortable for the puppy to be transported in this situation.And therefore we have decided to get a new crate for the puppy at Georgia where the puppy had its first stop.This is an AKC crate which would cost you $500.
Secondly the puppy here at Georgia, the puppy was put under quarantine and as such they are requiring the sum of $650 for the puppy to be release from there.
Thirdly the puppy spent so much time and the airport before delivery could commence and as such the people here are requesting this payment of $350 for the health care and feeding of the puppy during the stay.
So we are requesting the sum of $1500 from you to be paid to the same address and using the name of the director presently on board which is
Mr Kangson Baorence Bao Ebong
We want you to understand that the total money you have already paid as regards your puppy to our service as shown below is suppose to be refundable to you upon delivery and that means that the following amount
1. $550 for the shipment and adoption fee
2. $1780 for the insurance fee
3. $950 for the update of shots of your puppy
4. $1500 the last payment we are requesting
All this makes it a total of $4780 totally and plus the compensation of your stress we would be refunding the sum of $5000 to you upon delivery and this would be done by our head of the delivery crew Mr Cash Anderson
Therefore you would be needing an identification card or driving license so that you could provide this to the delivery agent upon delivery so that the total money and compensation of $5000 to be refunded to you as along as your puppy.We hope you understand with us and would do this payment.
GENERAL MANAGEMENT,
GRACE HOPKINS
after this i told them to go F*** themselves =)
I just wnated to thank all of you for helping me bust that Cameroon pet scamming guy. He tried to get me too. He offered me a free pomeranian puppy. Here are the e-mails… i am currently waiting for pictures and more information on the delivery service (trust me im not paying a dime) should I be scared??
I e-mailed him as soon as I saw the ad at backpage.com-
I am very interested in your free pomeranian puppy:) Please e-mail me and let me know if she is still available. My fingers are crossed!! Thanks
He sent me back the next day-
Hi there and thanks for the interest. Dora is still available and in good shape, she is presently besides me. Have u lived with this breed before, do you have kids, for she adores paying with kids .
thanks and waiting for a response
(at this point i went back to the ad to look at the picture again and the ad was deleted)
I sent personal information regarding the days I have class and what kind of life my new puppy was going to have. he said-
Thanks for the response. The mail was long and enjoyable and i noticed that u are honest due to the way you responded to my questions. I am currently in Victoria City, Cameron just posted to a new job and that is why i have to give Dora out.
I n addition, my wife and kids are overseas and and the pup is really desperately in need of a new home. You cant imagine that i go to work with her every day. I am not charging anything for her, all i need is a home where she will be showered with love. Where are u specifically in Wilmington?
thanks and waiting to read from u
I was confused because I had never heard of VICTORIA CITY, CAMEROON. I was under the impression the puppy was in a city close to my home town. He said-
Victoria City, Cameroon is about 7- 8 hours drive from Wilmington. If it is far for u, i can arrange for a delivery,but the problem is that it will cost you some $145 for a home delivery service.I dont know if u will afford this amount since u said u are a student?If u can afford it, just send to me ur full home address with names well spelled, a contact no and the nearest shipping service (airport) from your home,
IF u are are ok with this, just send to me the info and let me help u register the girl(Dora), after the registration, the delivery agency will then contact you for payment. N>B it is the delivery agency that receives payment
thanks and waiting to read from u
Thats when I got suspicious, I sent him another e-mail-
Well this kind of complicates things. I searched for Victoria City, Cameroon- is that in Africa?? If so, I dont think it will work out. Ive heard that small dogs dont travel well on planes and stuff and i just dont see how it would work. Please send me more info. if you can. A picture of Dora might help. She is 9 weeks old right?
And this is what he had to say-
I t sounds funny to hear that dogs dont travel over planes, it really makes me laugh. One of the reasons trying to give out this puppy out there is becuase of the climate here. She cannot cope with this climate. she is 9 weeks old. There are so many Africans here who want to buy it but i cannot because the natives here don’ treat pets fairly, there are no pet laws here making the whole thing to be funny. My scanner has a problem, i wil try and get one so as to send to u her latest pics for the pics i have here are not recent. Pets live Europe , America every day for Africa and why not back? Tell me something else, Well if are not comfortable, you can allow it for all i know is that my puppy is charming and will find a loving home over there
I (naively) sent him back, still feeling sorry for the puppy…
Im really sorry. I was soo looking forward to bringing Dora home. It is just that I wasnt expecting to pay anything for her except gas money to drive to Wilmington to pick her up. What delivery service were you planning on using?? I would like to see what the exact price it would be and think about it for a little bit. If you can send me as much info about the delivery service as possible it would help:) Where are you originally from? What kind of business do you do in Africa? If that is too personal, you dont have to answer. I was just curious.
After I sent that one I started looking for Cameroon pet delivery services and thats when I found this website!! So yeah thanks again for saving my butt:) Dont let ‘um getcha!!
yesterday I became a victim of a cameroon scam. Against better judgement i payed £220 for a puppy that definatley does not exisit. I do not think there is ANY resaon to scam people. The comment from the journalist is stupid. I may not be poor, but that money was still a lot od money to me, and litterlly all i had been saving. I wish there was something more i could do than write a blog, but never enter a deal to wire money to cameroon. EVER! they are lying terrible people that need to be stopped. it isnt just the money you see, its the feeling as well, I dont know about anyone else but the thought and preparation that goes into buying a puppy is much more than any sum of money. worst is i know its a scam and they are still emailling me and ringing me for the money.
I found three different stories about the same scam artist( and I use that word loosely) he now operating under a different e-mail address….iifree@gmail.com>but its the same guy Ceasar Carranzer. He useing different variations of his name. He is opperating the same scam just with different dogs. Thank you guys for this site because you guys saved me a lot of money, in my search for a puppy.
I responsed to an ad I found on Craigslist in Asheville N.C. The ad was for an African Grey Parrot. I emailed the guy and he was from Cameroon. Well the deal seemed to be to good to be true. He only wanted $250 for shipping the bird to the U.S. He said he was a christian and I could rest assured that I would receive the bird. He even sent me pictures of the bird. I started doing research and found these scams sites. Well thanks to this site I did not get scammed. I hope everyone will do their research and not get taken by these people.
I just came across this mail and found out the first mail above was smiler to that Mr. Afafa send to me. also the names of the dogs are also of that he told there were available. So I adopted two of his puppies Named Kaka and Lilly they arrived safely. So if he is the person Madame/Sir I will advice you to stop tarnishing people character because you one day have a reward on that. So be judge of your self. I am not insulting nor trying to offend you.
I will advice you to remove the post if he is the person you are talking about.
Don’t worry, I am neither insulted for offended. I am sure he is the person we are talking about. As sure as I am that you are not the person that you claim to be.
I am curious, do scam artists all learn spelling and grammar from the same school? Is there a special course in bad English that spammers and scammers have to take?
Can’t you use one of your pirated copies of Microsoft Office to do a little spell check?
Read every one of the the letters quoted here and you will see what I am talking about.
By the way, are you in Manchester, UK or Cameroon?
WOW here is my correspondence
Check out the very end when I accused them of being a scam
hello,
sorry for the late reply o,k they are still available and the have all health papers and my reason responding to you late is because my son was sick and was taken at the hospital so they are still remaining with me so mail me back
thanks

If I could found this site before I would never lost all my money. I’ve lost R29 000. They used the following email adress regarding the parrots askiastone@gmail.com/ saarinsurancecompany@zoomshare.com / customauthorities@consultant.com . They also send sms’s if they have your number.Please be carefull for this people they promise you the world and if you made your first payment they treaten you until you pay more and more. I stop the 20th May at R29 000. Any other emails that was used please post it the police can catch them with your help. Thank you
HAHAHAHA OMG I LOVE IT ! THATS SOOO TRUE ! ALL THOSE STUPID ASSES TALK THE SAME ! GET THE HELL OFF THIS SITE YOU DAM POSER WHO ARE YOU FOOLING? CANT YOU SEE 8 PAGES ON HERE ALL SAYING THE SAME EXACT THING?? OH BUT WELL BELIVE THE ONE POST YOU PUT CLAIMING ITS REAL ! WOW YOU HAVE BE SOLD ! IM GOING BACK ON THE SITE AND WIRING ALL MY MONEY TO AFRICA RIGHT AWAY! GET THE FUK OUTTA HERE !
i was on Craig’s list and there was an ad for “Free Congo African Grey Parrots” I fell for it and wired the supposed seller $60 toward the shipping of the bird she/he offered to pay the other $60 making the shipping $120 I then get an email from “Cameroon Airlines” stating that they need $300 for insurance but then turns back around and states that the insurance fee is “refundable” upon delivery of the bird. I DID NOT send anymore money because I figured out where this was leading but I still lost $60. They were also located in Cameroon.
I caught on right away. I wrote to an ad for a shih tzu I saw on the net. The name on the add was Marion Hammer. The email I received from them in response to my ad was from Marion.Hammer@yahoo.com. I was excited to get a response in looking for a shih tzu, but the minute I started reading the email, I said to myself, look at this crock of shit. Then I wrote back and said no thanks. Its mean that these people would do such a thing. There are many dogs close to where you live. Buy one from someplace where you can go and pick it up. Help the dogs here where you can go and give the help by buying them, etc. Don’t get taken for your hard earned money by these low lifes.
There were two postings for $90 English Bulldog puppies. From two different people. I emailed both and got the exact same response. I did not know where Cameroon was so I googled it and found this. Thank GOD that I did!
Hi There
I live in South Africa and they are also using our free http://www.gumtree.co.za site to post their ads.
They use bulldogs, yorkie,chihuahuas,monkeys,parrots and now even fertilized parrot eggs to scam people.
I even received “petexpress” quotations for the fee I need to pay for transportation. When I asked for banking details to do internet banking I was told to use moneygram.
Also when I started raising questions about the transportation they started getting irritated and tried to rush me into paying sooner.
I also posted “Beware ads” on our websites to warn people.
Regards
Elize Alberts
Wel i have just lost R1500, and the pups are supposed to be here and now they suddenly have requested a further R2900 for each pup (2 pups). Thank goodness i woke up as well, and only lost R1500, but the worst is I was actually heart broken not getting the so called pups.
I contacted someone who said they were in Arkansas about a bird they messed up and e-mailed me back about yorkie puppies. The e-mail is like all the others I have read sob story, and how they are over in Cameroon doing some christian work. The funny part is she claims to be barren so she has given all her love to her dogs which she calls her babies, yet she sends me a pic of her daughter? There are many other mistakes in the e-mail anyway the name is Solane Petra at solangepetra87@yahoo.com so beware is probably another scammer.
Ok so I went onto Craigslist and found a girl who was giving away her cute maltese puppy and it said she lived in Alexander City, Alabama. She said it was 12 weeks old and she didn’t have time to take care of the puppy. However, my “scam” replies aren’t much like yours.
I sent her a message saying:
Hey Jessica
I am very interested in adopting your baby. As soon as I saw it on there I fell in love! i live in duluth. is that anywhere near you? and do you still have the puppy available?
Maria
(In the ad it said she lived in Atlanta, georgia. but look what she says:)

Do you really want them because we are giving them to a lovely and caring families that will give them the loves they deserves.they are well trained and very socaible to kids,adults and other households pets. they are registered and comes along with all their papers.they like playing with kids most and enjoy the company of every person they are most precious cute puppies you will like and will make the best to your family we promise you that we are not given them out because they are endangeredis just that we traveled out to Alabama,our working hours here are too much for us now and we dont have enough time to spent with them thats why we are looking for them.
( this was sent to me about 10 minutes after i sent mine to her, so it was not a late message at all. i thought that was weird)
i said:
i really wanted another dog i could love and cuddle with. How much would you be asking for? I am looking for more of an inside dog and i know this one would be perfect. I am in my 3rd year of college but am living at home with my parents so she would be loved all day long. I really am interested. What kind of dog is it by the way? Please email me back or call me on my cell: xxx-xxx-xxxx and you can call me anytime.
(she never called)
she said:
i am presently located in ALEXANDER CITY AL ALABAMA, so i will like to know where you are located and how soon you want the puppy,i am just looking for a very good and caring homes where they will be well love and care, so please if can offer caring home to one or both of them i will be greatful to hand over one to you as soon as possible,if you are really interested then you will have to take care of the shiiping fee which is $110 per puppy and $220 for both,get back asap.
Thanks
(what?? i was talking about the one puppy, where did two come from?)
i said:
Ok that sounds fine. I live in Duluth, GA about 10 minutes from atlanta. I would just want one. Do you know what kind they are?
she says:
they are maltese puppies both sex,they are 12 weeks old vet check ansd up to date on all shots have all their papers to come along withinclud a one year health guarangtee,they are my puppies buth want to give them out for adoption just because i moved out from town and prsently now in Alabama and due to my work i don’t have enough time to spend with them, so that is why i am looking for them a very good and caring homes where they will be well love and cared,so now all what you need to do now is to kindly get back to me with your full contact inforpations so i can register reservation to your location,your full names,home address,contact numbers and the clossest airport in your area,as soon as i have all these information i will take the puppy along site with me to the shipping compang nd register reservation to your location as soon as possible,for the^$110 you will pay that at the shipping company,they will contact you with full shipping inormation and how to make the payment,get back asap with your full contact address.thanks
(hmm she happens to have one of each sex. how convenient. you know, i also noticed that all these scammers are terrible at grammar and spelling.)
I sent her my address and phone number and my nearest airport. then i said “Could you send me a picture of the girl?”
before she could answer me back, an hour or so passed by and I got a local phone call from a guy (who i could not understand whatsoever) and he says
“hi i’m calling for maria about a puppy. i have a puppy for you from jessica ruby. I will need you to send the money through moneygram. go look at your email.” and he said some other things but like i said before, i could not understand his accent(sounded african)
then i get an email from that pet company and my mom read the email since i was at work. they pretty much said that there is a pending delivery. if a girl cared so much about these puppies, why would she just send them out like that? my mom emailed the “company” and “jessica” several times with her phone number and no one would call. and this is the address they told me to send the money to:
NAMES;TAFILI BETRAND Y
COUNTRY;CAMEROON
COUNTRY CODE;00237
STATE;LITTORAL
CITY;DOUALA
ADDRESS;POST CENTRAL
(and this was centered and in blue font).,.(and i thought they were located in alabama…? where the hell did cameroon come from?
also, i called the number back several times from which they called me. it was a local number, but when i called back, it said this number is not a working number.
i wrote jessica back again and told her my brother is going to alabama for a trip and he can get the puppy for me. i’ll let you guys know what happens when she writes back.
so this sounds similar to your scams, but was it a bad idea to give my address? i gave it before i knew it was a scam. i didn’t give them any credit card informatin or anything though. someone please let me know the dangers in them just knowing my address. i don’t think a random guy from cameroon will fly up to georgia just to find me or anything…
oh yeah, and if it werent for finding your website and many others through google, i would have been screwed! so thank you so much guys!
I also got scam. I read a post in craigslist and a couple was giving away a maltese puppy from ohia I send them $150 for shipping but then they said that the puppy arrive in newark and didnt have no insurece papers so I had to send $350 that’s when I started to get suspicious. I live in New York why will the puppy arrive in newark, also the adress they send you is the same with differnt names. I copy and paste there last email below
That’s the REPLY they send me below!
YOU HAVE TO DO THE TRANSFER USING THE SAME INFORMATION AS YOU DID WITH THE SHIPPING FEE.
Name : Jaff leonard
Country: Cameroon
State : Victoria island
City : Victoria
Zip Code: 00237
SO AS SOON AS YOU GET THE INSURANCE READY,WE WILL TELL YOU WHEN WE ARE LEAVING NEWARK.THANKS AND GET BACK TO US WITH THE FULL REFERENCE NUMBER SO THAT WE VERIFY IF THE FUND IS AVAILABLE .IF THE FUND IS AVAILABLE,WE WILL FLY THE PUPPY AND WHEN WE ARRIVE WE WILL CALL UP TO COME AND PICK UP YOUR PUPPY OR OUR DELIVERY VAN WILL DROP IT AS REGARDS YOUR HOME ADDRESS AND THE INSURANCE FEE REIMBURSED.

No matter how much info they give you about themselves, or how “trustworthy” they seem DELETE the email and tell them not to email you again. They are quite persistent. Hope this helps anyone who was ever tempted by these ads.

Oh my god!!! I had no idea about the Cameroon scams before I went to look up for Maltese puppies for adoption. I am a victim of this freaken scams!! That is not fair to anyone, its not only about the money, but its about the feelings and excitement we get knowing that I was going to get a puppy for the first time! I really think that someone should do something about the frauds and scams in the internet! Now we can’t know what is a scam or the truth! I wish I had read this before. I have been reading the other comments about other victims, and they’re are the exact same words and excuses the scammers use to make us believe we are going to get the puppie. Don’t believe anything anymore about FREE things!! I sooo much regret it! I’ll rather go buy me a puppy at the pet shop where it’s going to be more positive!
I RECENTL GOT SCAMMED OUT OF 3700.00 DOLLARS BC OF THE SO CALLED DR MOORE WHO IS ALSO DR. BRET..

I was almost taken by this as well!!! I have been searching the web for local breeders and yorkie rescues and came across an ad for 2 yorkie puppies, a male and female, at a bargain price of $100. Below are the emails:
When I first inquired the reply back was:

-is every one in your home fully committed to the adoption of a new pet?
-Where exactly are you located?
The reason i wanna give them out for adoption is because, i am a volunteer and since my daughter passed away,i don’t find it easy to keep the puppies and continue my job since my job warrants me to travel more often than not, so i wan striving towards closing the animal farm that my daughter left before she passed away.Right now we are presently o n a Volunteer mission for the W.H.O for the fight against Malaria Parasite on pregnant Women in a small Country Called Cameroon. We decided to Volunteer and work with W.H.O is our priority for now since we loved helping Sick people. I am from Bellflower California.My duty here is tight up, that is why i even regret bringing the babies over with me since we got this job and moved with them to Cameroon i hardly spent adequate time loving and caring for them. I am really disturbed since love and concern is what they where spoiled rotten with my daughter when she was alive. Hence i have decided to give them out to any loving and caring home(s) out there which will show them lots of love and concern and care properly for them.they are two of them the female is called Sarah and the male Banly All you need to do to get them is simply paying their transportation fees and change of ownership documents in your names to your location, and you will have to email to let me know how they are doi ng and equally send me pictures of the puppies at your home once every month. If you agree to accomplish all these, then i will be very ready to give them out to you,and they will be coming with some playing toys,health guarantee, and even with food menu. I will be waiting to read back from you. I will very much give out these puppies for free adoption as soon as possible in order to also reduce my work load.also below in the attachment are their recent pictures hope you will adore them so much.Waiting on your humble response.
Thanks.

I replied:
Hello,
We have never had a yorkie before, but I grew up with a toy poodle. We are fully committed to adopting a new pet, and have plenty of yard for play time. Are you not located in Atlanta???? If you are not, I apologize but I do not feel comfortable shipping pets.
She later replied:
Hello,
Thank you very much for the mail and i pray that the almighty God in heaven bless you as you prepare to welcome this puppies in to your loving and caring home.we just believe you are the type of person that we have been looking for who can provide this puppies with a loving and caring home but you would have to promise us that you would send pictures monthly so that we would know how they are doing in their new home we would like you to know that all we need for this puppies is a home that care and give this puppies a good and caring home.ok i am well please right now that Sarah and Banly will be well taken care off.so this is how i will be shipping them but i will first of all like you to get back to me with the following informations so that it can ease the shipping process so that when they arrives in your airport you should quickly identify them ok.also all you are going to do to have this babies home is to pay for their shipping fee to Atlanta which cost $300 for the two puppies, get back to me with the below information.
your first and second name————————-?
your state—————————————–?
your city——————————————?
your house address———————————?
your street address——————————–?
your phone number———————————-?
The name of the nearest airport around you…………………?
As concern the shipping is very easy and simply to ship them to you like this. when you send me the money i will take the puppies at the Ministry of Livestock here and make a change of ownership document in your names which will shows that you are the new owner of the puppies and as soon as i am done there at the ministry of livestock i will mover over to the airport book a flight for the puppies get them a flight ticket and get them on board the flight and when i am through with that i will get back to you with the complete flight details so that you know when the puppy arrives ok.also when they arrives your airport will call you to let you know that your puppies have just arrives and the airport delivery agents are coming over to your house to delivered the puppies to you so that you will be at home ok.so get back to me with the information as soon as possible.
Thanks.
Waiting……
I have yet to reply, and still trying to decide if I should. I had an uneasy feeling after the first reply, but after the second I googled her name and came across her postings at several different sites. I did, however, come across this site and I want to thank everyone that has posted a comment/experience!!!!!! It saved me from making a bad decision!!!!
Here is my conversations below…
I just drop of the puppy at the airport so as soon as you make the payment and the puppy ship over to you get back to me also when you get the puppy.

Good day,
Thanks for the mail once more.We knew from our prayers that God was going to make a good choice for Billy.Attached to this mail are Billy`s pictures.We are happy to read from you once more.We are also very happy to know that you are pet lovers and can take good care of Billy,we were just scared because we have read about some people that maltreat animals for pleasure in the name of bloody dog fight games.My family and i have just relocated to the Spanish city called Barcelona ,we work for the Baptist Mission and our job is so demanding living us with no time to take good care of our baby .Billy will come along with all vet papers and a one year health guarantee.All we need for him is much love and care.We dont feel comfortable selling him but If you are willing to take care of the change of ownership papers and we will take care of the shipping fee then we can have him ship to you.If you dont feel comfortable to take him let me know immediately and so i can adopt him to another family.We hope to read from you.Have a nice day.GOD BLESS YOU.
Thanks

Thanks for the mail.I will be shipping Billy from the
Barcelona international airport.All we will need is
the change of ownership papers and so we can book a
flight for Billy. The certificate for the change of
ownership is a legal document that certifies that the
puppy have been transfered to your ownership and
care.The change of ownership papers will cost $97 and
shipping will cost $250.If you are ready we can have
the papers done today and so we have him ship to you
by evening or tomorrow morning depending on when the
papers will be signed at the ministry of Animals,Livestock and Fishery.I will
need your detail address so that we can fill on the
papers.We also need the name of the closest Airport
to you where you will pick up Billy or he can be
delivered to your home in this case you will pay extra
$50 for delivery.We will use the Delta Express
Shipping company because they are very efficient in
pets transportation and they always insure pets before
shipping .They also have well trained vet specialist
that will take proper care of pets during flight.As
soon as you are ready to wire the money let me know
and so we can have things started .You can call me
using my universal satellite cell phone number 01123794945072
We hope to read from you.Have a
nice day.GOD BLESS YOU.

Dr. Banks is trying to scam me as we speak. I just found this site and am very glad that I did. We have been looking for a bulldog for a very long time and this seemed perfect. There has to be a way to stop these people from doing this. We were actually told that shipping was free. We just needed to get the forms changed. So, I guess this person is getting desperate. Thank you for making this post.

hello to you and thanks for the mail.I also appreciate your interest in fosse our pure breed king cavalier Charles spaniel He is 14 weeks old. we are seeking a good home for him which would spoil him rotten with much love and care.He is potty trained both in and out and home raise with much love and care.he is kc registered and is updated in his shots and undergoes regular vet checks with a veterinary clinic.he is well socialize and gets along well with other household pets and kids.If you would not mind i would like to know more about you and your family since i believe it is right to do so since i would not want my baby to go to home which would not take proper care of him.
have you had this kind of breed before?
Are you a God fearing person?
Where are you located?
how can we be sure you would take care of fosse?
Honestly we are looking for a family to take in our baby as family pet and not to be use for showing and breeding.He is still available and we pray that he move to a good home.
we hope you are not vex by this questions and can understand with us on this issue.
we hope to read from you

thanks you for getting back to me about fosse, well first of all i’m laura i live with my fiance and our 3 1/2 year old daughter, in derry we have been considering a puppy for a long time now and we now feel its the perfect time as our daughter has grown to love animals as much as we have, i used to have a cavalier king charles about 4 years ago which had been abandoned i had contacted the pound and local radio stations to see if anyone had lost her but no one ever reclaimed her, but i moved out of home about 2 years ago and my mother couldnt bear to part with the dog so she kept her until she sadley passed away last summer, niether of have a fear of god we are both raised catholic and attend local mass on sundays , i believe we are a great family for fosse our little girl has been asking for a little brother/sister but unfortunately that wont be happening until we get married, i believe that a puppy would be a great companion for her and an excellent addition to our family, i look forward to hearing from you again and would be happy to meet up so that you can make your own judgment on wether or not we are the right family for fosse! thanks again

my reply
hello rev dawrson thank you so much for replying back to as you have confirmed, what i originally thought that this was a scam, after i saw the picture of FOSSE i googled it and came up with the same puppy on you tube about six months ago , which is quite odd considering your ‘baby’ is only 14 weeks same jumper on dog too, then i googled your name rev wiliams dawrson and came across this link http://www.helpmerick.com/fun_with_cameroon_pet_scams.htm you should view it its quite amusing lol esp since your a man of the cloth ha ha , well you have already been reported by myself and others for fraud so thank you very much for replyin i’ve found this very entertaining as you belive that everyone out there are as dumb as you !!! so my kinds regards asshole
Here is my recent experience tring to find an english bulldog. I had the feeling this was a scam from the get go,but i played a long to see where it would go. we will see if he continues to e-mail afterthis last entry. I ams sorry, you will have to read this from bottom to top as I pasted in backwards.
After talking this over with the family we would be able to pick up the puppy and pay for it upon pick up. what is your telephone number so we can work out some details.
Hello to you Rachel.
Well if you feel your dad ca come for the pick up here in Washington sate then that would be find .I am located in Black Daimond would it be possible for him to come over here i would be more than happy.as for the request on how you would have to pay the money it i would have to make inquiries from the shipping agency to find out how they want the money to be paid.Or we could do it this way ,i could take care of all the charges needed for the shipping and and when i have place that baby for shipment they would notify and tell you that i have paid all the money and before shipment commence you would have to send the money for the shipment to my son who is in Victoria Cameroon as he is the one who was taking of these babies but as he has gone for studies there on the new discovery made by Dr Anamgou on the cure of HIV aids.But as i am really busy with my job i spoke with him and he would not becoming for some time i would having the babies adopted.They just like Kids to me And thats why they are not for sale.I hope you Understand Perfectly.
I would be waiting on your decision.
Thanks

have to talk to my husband a little bit more, and see what he wants to do. His father lives in Virginia and frequently goes to DC, would it be possible for him to pick up the puppy? Also, what kind of payment do you take, I am very nervous about doing money orders with all the scams and fraud going on over the interent, please do not take this as a personal offense. I was interested in another bulldog only to find out that it was scam. PLease let me know what kind of options there are on this. How come you are selling these puppies so inexspensively, they usually come with such a hefty price tag that we can afford. The only ones I have found in our area are for thousands of dollars. As far as which one of the little babies I would like, that is going to be hard. I wish I lived closer so I could see them in person. They are all so adorable. Please get back to me as soon as possible. I really appreciate all your time. Thank you SO MUCH!!—-Rachel

I do not mind all the questions, I am actually glad. I have worked with animals in the past and I know how difficult it is to have to find homes for critters and hope they go to good hopes. It is my husband, myself, and our nineyr old son. We own a house and currently have an english mastiff who is going to be 6yrs old in august and great with other animals. We have a fenced in yeard and do not believe in outdoor animals. We are looking for a companion and not to breed. My husband works full time and is done with his job around noon everyday (he works for frito-lay in sales/delivery. I work part time at my family’s restaurant. As far as religion goes we are non orthodox. We used to go to a christian church here in town, but recently been doing our practicing faith at home. We live in St. Cloud MN. any other questions let me know. Thank-you so much. We do not have a lot of extra money being a working family, I have wanted an english bulldog for years but have not been able to afford a lot- thanks so much —Rachel
hello to you and thanks for the mail
we are also very happy and appreciate your interest in
in our full blooded pure breed English bulldog puppies
Leroy,Emilyan,Shella and Jiggs.They are potty trained home raised
both in out.They are 15 weeks old and They are update with all
shots and with constant vet checks from a specialist Vet Doctor
of the family and very friendly with kids in the house,
and with other pets.We are seeking a good and loving family for them,
that can offer a home for them with lots of love and care.
If you will not mind,i
may want to know a little about you and your family,because I think its
right to know the family seeking to take in these babies:
Have you had this kind of breed before?
Are you a religious person?.
Where are you located?
How can we be sure you will take good care of them for us?
Honestly we are seeking a family to take
in our Puppies as family pets and not to be used for breeding and showing.
Some other families are seeking to offer homes for them,but still we have
to be confident of who we are giving our Puppies too and not
let mean people have them. We hope you are not upset by all
the questions and can understand with me on this.I will be hoping
to hear from you again.
Regards
Pastor Williams
English Bulldog Puppies for adoption Ad reference: The visitor says:Are the puppies still available and how much are they. Our family has beeninterested in getting one for years and the timing is finally right!Thank you for using Mercattel.http://www.mercattel.comMercattel. Free classified ads with photos.
i had a add on the kiiji website, and some one reply to me .. i know is a scam . but i am jsut palyin aroudn with that person . so that he is wasteing his time on me and not bothering other people
is it safe to paly around wiht a scamer. let me post the mail i got
Hello
thanks for hetting back. I really appreciate your mail and i am almost certain that my puppy has found a perfect home. Yea it is tru it very difficult to trust people online this daysbut as for me i am some one who can be trusted and i will like for you to trust me the way i am trying to trust you also. If i have to give her to you that means we will always be reading from each other concerning Faith. i don’t know if it will inconvinient you but imust say i will really appreciate if you keep me updated on how she is doing. You know i really care about her.
Well the adoption fee is $270..00. And you said you will like to take her in July i don’t know how that will work right now i am really desperate to get her a new home and not only a new home but a home where she will be loved so i don’t know if i can keep her till then. My granny is really on my neck she is not comfortable living with pets so i am trying hard to keep faith where she will be loved. So i don’t really
soo let me know if i should couninte doign this ….and than at the end i well tell him i wont be able to make the payment.
You people as so greedy why can’t you go to the pet shop and get a bulldog puppy or any pet of your choice .do not be greedy and you would not fall a victim and stop complaining for your dullness.
i found a yorkie online yesterday from camroon africa. it was a free adoption all i had to pay was the $100 shipping fee i only had $50 at the time and they said they would pay the other $50 as long as i sent it back to them by friday. i am supposed to recieve the dog at 9 am this morning it is only 8 am i was a little nervous after really thinking about it so i called the airport cuz the person said the dog would be there and then said it would be delivered to my house. the airport said they dont even do animals. can anyone help me figure out if this is a scam or not? please help thank you
Please don’t tell me your are really that stupid! Maybe you should spend a day reading this web site…Don’t be a fool and be lucky your only out $50! Please. Don’t act like an idiot and ask stupid questions like that!
I was looking for Siberian Huskies online and I couldn’t find any. I had a reply from two people in Cameroon who say I will only have to pay $90 for shipping. I looked it up shipping is well over $350 to ship via air. I am sorry to say you did get scammed, please don’t send the remaining $50.
I am looking for an English Bulldog and I had two people email me back, both saying they are from Cameroon and both saying they have a male and Female puppy left. I thought this was weird and now, Thanks to you I know it was a scam. Thank you!!

hi,
Thanks for your mail regarding my bird….she is still available to any one
prepared to provide her with enough care and love,where she will be well
spoilt with all her need…..she is 4years old and has very good
temperament with kids and other pets,very playful love to play around with
toys and kids,she is health guaranteed and DNA tested…..she is up to date
on all her shots and will be coming along side her health papers and vet
records.She also speaks English,French and German, and is a very intelligent and highly social
bird……she is called Nina and i am actually giving her out because she
belonged to my daughter(Jenner) but with a heavy heart i lost Jenner and she
was all i got ,i work with a global,broad-based health care company devoted
to discovering new medicines, new technologies and new ways to manage
health.Jenner died in an accident last 3 weeks on her way back from her
piano classes and i have very bad memories when i see these bird around
me,because she was always together with her since i am always busy in the
laboratory.i really need to give her to someone who can really care and love
her just the way Jenner used to.Nina has been very lonely since Jenner
passed away so the best thing i decided on as my colleague advised me was to
send her to a loving home .i really count on you if you can be there for
these bird..I am located in Cameroon and i am only asking $250 to ship her
to you…..Please may i also ask you a few questions?
where are you located?
are you a breeder?
do you have kids?
Can you also promise that you will take good care of her?
How soon are you ready to have her home?
At least with this informations,i will get to know better where she will be
going to…….See her pictures below.i just hope you will love her…..I

me monthly so that i can see how she is doing in your home……Below is an

HOW AWFUL THEY USE THE FAKE DEATH OF SOMEONE TO SCAM MONEY!
I caught on pretty quickly and did not send a dime!
My Daughter saw an ad for a Chihuahua and knowing how much I wanted one, she emailed to the ad on Gumtree. The story is the same as everyone elses on here except, the female didn’t mention being a missionary etc.. she said she lived in Scotland. That’s an 8 hour drive from where we live. A few emails were exchanged, but when I read the final one stating that they had had to rush to a serious dog show in Cameroon and could ship the dog over NOW, it would be a 9 hour flight and we should be at the airport to collect our puppy, I said enough is enough, we had asked for pictures and details but never recieved anything we asked for.
I sent a final email stating that we did not to wish to hear anymore from her. This is her email address just in case you ever come across her.

Date:Saturday, June 28, 2008 11:52:10 PM
Thanks for the interest you have in adopting my puppies .My puppies are named King and Queen and are male and female puppies.they are home trained and very friendly and loves playing with kids.
King and Queen are sociable with kids as they are both indoor and outdoor trained and loves to be in the company of other household pets such as birds,monkeys and cats.They love to sleep and like playing with kids.
Concerning their health situations,they are healthy as they are well vaccinated by their vet doctor and possess necessary exportation papers to any country in the world.
Concerning the reason and aims for me giving out this cute babies on adoption,it is because i am retired and do no longer work with the Finland Aids and right now i am currently in Cameroon with my family on a vacation and we are giving them out since we would not be able to give them all the love and care they need as a household pet.All our kids are grown now and married and we are old now and cannot really give all the care and love and we intend re homing this puppies back to the Usa since we got the puppies from a friend.So right now all we would like to ask from you are the following
Are you a breeder??
Do you intend breeding them??
Are you sure to take good care of them??
When do you need them??
Do you have other pets??
Are you married??
Are you sure to be able to pay for their transportation to your location 150??
King and Queen will be coming with all their toys,health papers.scrap booklet and a video tape that shows their sociality with kids,Attached to the files are some pictures of king and queen for you to take good look at them.Hope you would love them?
We would be waiting to read from you to highlight you on how delivery for these puppies shall be done to you.
thanks and keep in touch.

Hi…
To answer your questions first…..
Are you a breeder?? No I am not
Do you intend breeding them?? Not I do not
Are you sure to take good care of them?? I would take good care of them. AS I do with all my pets in my home.
When do you need them?? Depending on how much it will cost
Do you have other pets?? I have 1 dog and 2 cats
Are you married?? Married 7 years
Are you sure to be able to pay for their transportation to your location 150?? Now is this $150.00 American Dollars? Or are we talking in a different currency?
Again, it all depends on how much we are talking in American US dollars/currency. Can you please send me a photo of the puppies now? I would like to see what they look like first. Is that possible?
Thank you

My FINAL Reply
I’m sorry sir or madam, I can not give you my information if there is no way of me being able to contact you yourself by phone. I just don’t understand this only costing me $150 to ship 2 puppies from Cameroon. It doesn’t make any sense at all. If you can not provide me a phone number for me to call you at then this is my final email to you. Both puppies are adorable but I can not just hand out my information to someone I don’t know, just like that. I would need more information from you, like phone, address you are at and information like that. I will not get involved in some sort of scam or catch. Thank you

Hi,
The puppy you saw on the ads has been purchased by one Mrs.Jennifer Evans in champaign Il 61821. But you can contact one of my previous buyer who just bought the puppies from me.She is Evangelist Anita maloney, she just contacted me that she is now in west africa for a missionary work and she went there with the two puppies she recently bought from me.
According to her,she does not have the time for the puppies because of her heavy scheduled with God`s work also the weather there is so harsh on the puppies health and she needed a caring parent who can adopt the babies back to the state asap. Below is her email address, contact her and request for the puppies she need a parent for.She will be very happy if she knows you are from me.I will also tell her about you.

Dear Raul,
Yes!!! I sent the breeder to find a caring parent for my babies. I use to live in the USA before I got a divine call to serve God and humanity here in west africa and this gave me little or no time for my babies.The weather here is also not lenient with my babies. They hardly come outside with me because of the weather. I want to get them adopted back to the USA where they will be sent back to the weather they were acquainted with before.
My babies are 3months old, they are AKC registered, current on all shots. health certified. Loves to be cuddled and loves to play. They are from the same litter, the female is Eve while the male is Adam. They are home trained. You will only be paying for thier shipment alone.I am asking $400 for each both will be $750 shipping included.You will promise me that you will be sending their pictures to me in every 2months as an update with regards to how they are doing with you. I love them so much but they will be missed.
They are my real babies. Please treat them as though they were your babies.I am attaching their pictures for you to view them.I can’t wait to hear from you.
God bless you

I am so happy that I found this “Fun with Cameroon Pet Scam”. I too asked for specific information about a Beagle puppy but kept getting the run around and a request for $350.00 today and I would get the puppy in 8 hours. Well, that is absolutely impossible since I live in Hawaii. He described himself as being in D.C. and needing to adopt out the puppy his grandmother gave him for graduation from the university there.
hello there dear,
thanks for getting back to me ok and it was nice reading from you.well i understand that you are in Hawaii ok.so since we are not close to each other the only way that is save and good for me to ship the puppy to you is just through the plane since the plane will last for 8 hours flight and you received the puppy.so all that i will be needing from you are your full names, house address and the nearest airport to your location where you will love to pick up the p[puppy there.so as soon as you can provide me this full information i will be taking the puppy to the Cameroon airlines here for the transfer of ownership document into your names for easy collection and identification at your location.so the flight will last for 8 hours and you will be receiving the puppy.so the puppy will be coming with all legal papers so do not worry your self because i will do my best that you received the puppy in a very good condition.well as you can see i am not a breeder ok this puppy was being giving to me by my grand mother when i was graduating from the university of Washington DC .so since i was send to work here at virgin land Cameroon i just come with my puppy so since the climatic condition here is not good for my puppy that why i want to fly back the puppy back to some one in the states because i know that he will be fine being there and which you are the right person that will owned this puppy.so i do not know any thing about the parent of the puppy.i think that you saw the picture of the puppy and hope that you love it.so as i told you in my previous mail since i am giving out the puppy for adoption all you are to pay is just the flight ticket of the puppy to Hawaii and it will only cost you $350.so o just contacted the Cameroon airlines here that will be shipping the puppy to you and the airport manager have just told me that there is a flight to Hawaii today at 1pm so as soon as you can email me back with your full shipping information i think that we can proceed with the shipping today.so i hope that as this puppy will be coming to your lovely home you are going to take good care of my puppy and always send monthly pictures to me.so i will love to see your picture so that i will know who that i will be shipping my puppy to.so as soon as you can get back to me with that your full shipping information and i just drive to the airport here and make very thing set for the puppy to be ship to you in Hawaii i will then get back to you with the full flight information that you will be using in picking up the puppy at your location such as departure time and arrival time at your location so that you will know when to go and pick up the puppy.so i hope that you will understand me very well and we both proceed with the shipping of the puppy to you.so i will be waiting to read from you asap with your full shipping information.so i am a christain and hope that you are to because i want this puppy to be well taken care of .
thanks and waiting to read back from you.
my regards to your family.
Ok, so this man says the yorkie puppies are free and that they will pay the airline tickets. All i have to pay is $180.00 for the adoption papers. Which is wierd. He says as soon as i send the money that he will send the puppies, well ok at 1st you know I thought it was ok. So I sent the money not thinking and today I stopped the money from getting there (thank god)! He keeps saying trust me i will send them when you send the money i dont have enough money to pay for the adoption papers too. I told him the only way I would send the money is if there was a written contract, that way if he didnt send the puppies I could prosicute the hell out of him. His other choice was to send them and then I send the money. But the 1st e-mail i got from him had two puppies a female (lucy) and male (landy). Well just a few minutes ago I asked him to send one of them together..well the picture he sent looks nothing like the other pictures i recieved 3 days ago. I love animals and Yorkies but i’m going to stick to buying them in the USA. Because of this site i was able to stop the money before it got to him. and i just wanna say thanks!!
(to inform others the man did right in blue and it was centered text in the e-mails and he was from limbe, cameroon. I will give the e-mail address to save others too…divilo4real@yahoo.com)- if anyone has anything simular to this please e-mail me at amberdanyell@gmail.com thanks.
Here’s what I don’t get, though. These idiots cannot even form a sentence, let alone spell anything right. They steal pictures from the internet and claim them as their own. I replied to the one from Chicago letting the person know that American’s aren’t stupid, and that the Nigeria/Cameroon Scam is all over the net.
I told them that they were worthless, lazy-ass sorry excuses for human beings since they make their living trying to scam poor little innocent old ladies out of the Social Security, when all they wanted was something to love. What **sh*oles!
The funny thing is that the person responded back to me saying that they’ve been doing this for “levin” years, and that they were going to sue me for “Slendar.!” LOL
All I did in my initial email was ask if they were available and their location (which was supposed to be Chicago and Indiana). I never gave them my name.
Here’s the most recent one today, regarding the Yorkies. They could even spell their location right!
HELLO
THE BABIES ARE STILL AVAILABLE.A FEMALE CALLED KATE AND MALE LOVE.THEY ARE AKC REGISTERED,10 WEEKS OLD,POTTY TRAINED,PLAYFUL WITH PEOPLE CURRENT ON SHOTS,AKC REGISTERED.LET ASK YOU A FEW QUESTIONS.
DO YOU WANT TO BREED THE PUPPY?
DO YOU HAVE KIDS AT HOME?
WELL SORRY FOR THE QUESTIONS BUT I HAVE TO ASK YOU FOR I WANT TO KNOW IF YOU HAVE ANY EXPERIENCE IN CARING FOR PETS.THE BABIES ARE LIKE KIDS TO US AND SO WE NEED JUST THE BEST FOR THEM.WELL I AM LOCATED IN LIN 12 KAMEROUN AND THE PUPPIES WILL BE SHIPPED OR PICKED UP FROM THERE.ALL YOU NEED DO AS CONCERNS THE RE PARENTING OF THESE BABIES IS PROMISE TO GIVE THE BABY YOU WILL TAKE ALL THAT IT WILL NEED.THEY WILL BE COMING WITH THEIR PLAYING TOYS AND BOOKLET ON HOW TO CARE AND FEED.WELL IF YOU RPOMISE TO GIVE THE PUPPY ALL THIS THEN GET BACK AS SOON AS POSSIBLE.
I too was scammed just today! I was suppose to be getting a mini tea cup yorkie from a lady by the name of Valen Kitchen. Her ad is on buyandsell.com. I was stupid enough to send $150 Western Union that I am now out of and the puppy that goes by the name Trini was suppose to be here tonight when all of a sudden this morning at 6:00 I recieve an email from Air France Pet Delievery Service(which I later find out doesn’t even exsit!) telling me that they need $500 sent via Western Union for a kennel rental of $100 and a “refundable insurance” of $400 that would get back when the puppy arrives. Yesterday I was trying to get intouch with someone from the airport to make sure everything was confirmed and every number I tried was not a working number! So I decided to go to Air France’s main webpage and requested online help. I explained what was going on and let them know what I needed and I recieve an email back from them this afternoon saying “We have fowarded several emails to our legal department about pets being promised from Africa using our transportation but there is no such thing as an Air France Pet Delievery Service they are using our name without our permission and unfortunaly in these cases there actually is no pet arriving.” I wish I would have known this before but I didn’t I am just glad I recieved that email from Air France USA to confirm this scam! Please be aware! It can happen to anyone. It is absolutly a shame that we as such honest people are just trying to do the right thing and help and we get scammed! I am still trying to investigate this and I will get to the bottom of this. I hope this helps someone and if anyone has any info that can help me get to the bottom of this I would GREATLY appreciate it!
These people really are stupid.i responded to several yorkie adds that were supposably “in my area”and ALL OF THE SELLERS said they were shipping from cameroon.Most of the information that they sent me came right off of other websites…They even sent me fake vet certificates that were clearly typed.I am so glad that i did alot of reasearch to avoid being scammed because it seemed fishy from the star
Thanks to all of you and Be safe and listen to the tips of the FBI and western union……..DONT SEND MONEY WORLDWIDE UNLESS ITS FAMILY AND FRIENDS(SOMETIMES NOT EVEN THEN)
I responded to an ad last night, regarding a Yorkie for $300.00. Then I get their big long, horribley worded ( to make me think they are second language learners, I think) reply about how they took their puppy with them to Caeroon, where they were visiting, but now they find they can’t give him enough time. The way it was worded sounded like they were back in my area, or had not left yet. I assumed I could just drive over and meet the dog. So, I responeded about my home. etc. as they had asked to see if I would be suitable. A few minutes ago I get their reply. They are ready to ship him to me, they are in Cameroon and once the money is confirmed they will put him on the plan. Then they aksed me several questjions, name, nearest airport, etc. Once I got this email with them saying he was in Cameroon I know it had to be a scam, so I goggled it. Then I reported to the newspaper who had the ad posted. Then I emailed them back that since I had a vacation coming I would fly to Cameroon and pick the dog up, then spend about a week there, and then fly back home wiht him, since I did not want hm to travel alone. I only did this to see what they would respond, and becasue I was angry that there are people like that in the world.
they have just tried to scam me just yesterday and i told them i had no money they stopped emailing
It seems as though he is still trying to run this scam.I have already been scammed once and am not taking kindly to being scammed once again.They seem to be playing on my want for a yorkie,they should be ashamed.But I know that they don’t.Scam me once it is lesson learned,try and scam me again…NO WAY.
Betty
I was about to be scamed by the tiny yorkie today until i found this site. WOW amazing!!! i had them call me so I would have there phone # and everything. I have already notified western union with there names and addresses so no one else will send money. They dont even know I know yet. I set up a new email in someone elses name and acted as though I was someone else and they were saying the same thing to them. I hope that buy and sell pets .com will take them down.
We weren’t as smart and were scammed. Here is a copy of their email , buyer beware!!! (in blue font)

hello
i got my call this morning about paying the fee before they ship my two puppies… they want me to go to wal mart to pay at noon today. the e-mail said “YOU ARE REQUESTED TO PAY THE TOTAL FUND VIA WALMART MONEYGRAM STORE AT YOUR LOCATION BECAUSE WE HAVE THEIR UNITS AT OUR HEADQUATERS DESIGNED FOR SUCH TRANSACTIONS, TO THE DIRECTOR OF THE ATLAS PET MOVING SERVICES CAMEROON USING THE ADDRESS” i dont know what to do now that i saw your message on this site… what happened to you concerning this puppie scam with the headquarters in Cameroon…?? thanks.
From
-Concerned Buyer…
Come on folks, wise up, there is no puppy HQ in Cameroon. There is no Yorkie, or bull dog, or any other dog in Cameroon looking for an owner. Remember that if it sounds too good to be true, it is too good to be true. Then when all these wacky requests for extra money’s come through, you have to put up your red flags and back away from the deal.
Me and my boy freind were about to get lily!
we had a feeling it was a scam,
lucky we didn’t have the money to “ship her”
right before i was about to borrow money from my brother to send to them i was going to look up the airport they were going to ship her from and fell upon this website, the letter was exactly the same as the one i received. i also have numbers that they are calling me from.
THEY ASK FOR MONEY ALL THROUGH MONEY GRAMS THROUGH WALMART.
