Fun with Cameroon Pet Scams

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:

Hello 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 getting my baby, all i need for her is love and care and if you will accept in sending me update pictures of her every month.She is just 13weeks old so gentle to kids, a very good companion at home, she is good with other house pets.she is vet checked,AKC registered and up to date on all her sorts.She will run and play like a 3year old kids.She has very good temperament with kids and other pets at home she will make a very fine house pet.This little girl loves to run and play, Likes to stop and smell flowers.. She comes along with a 1-year health guarantee She comes along all her playing toys, including her menu booklet,and video CDs, which shows what she likes and dislikes.her asking price is $350.i will like to know how soon you will be ready for the puppy.her pictures are attached to this mail thanks Yes, it was centered like that and no changes were made to spelling or punctuation.

My reply:

Please send me your contact information. I am very very intersted in saving your baby! Thank you,

I was 99 percent sure it was a scam, but I thought I would give them a chance.

Their reply:

My reply:

Ya. I saw all that in my sister’s email. How many dogs do you have? There were pictures of four different dogs with different markings. Do you have any larger pictures? I assume you are on a short vacation and will be coming back to Denver soon as Christ orphanage is very understaffed judging by the ads I always see on KKDNVR about their need for volunteers. I was wondering if you would be willing to trade it for a Mac p-p-p-powerbook. (I did not include this link in the actual email.) 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:

At this point I decide to really start seeing if this person will get irritated at my responces. Please note that I made up the names of breeds as well as the distinctive features of each breed. 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.

 

The dog in the picture appears to be a southwithshire breed. Can you tell me if this is the case. If not, it may be a kanarvastshire and those are very valuable. Are you sure you only want $325? Even shouthwithshires are selling for over $3200 by private breeders. kanarvastshires are only licenced to be raised by two breeders. Does the puppy have a pink nose or black, this would really help me in knowing more about which breed it comes from. Either way I am interested, but if it’s nose in pink (inside) I will  be especially excited. Are the pictures actual size? Have you had the puppy vaccinated against elm beetle?

 

Any answers will be appreciated.

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?

No problem ashley. I am in no hurry. For a shouthwithshire I will gladly take the time to get this right. Will you be coming back to denver any time soon.

 

I have a few other pets but they are also very sociable.I told my family about the dog and they are  very excited. We think we may take a holiday there and pick up the dog at the same time. Is this a good time of year to visit cameroon?

 

Thanks,

 

Alvin (I decided to make a change to my name to see if they would call me on it.

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.

Sorry, about that last note. It was written by my friend Alvin. He is always replying to my email. I have three other friends that often respond to my email their names are Simon, Theodore and Dave. You don’t have to reply to their messages. 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

  4. I’m 22 and I just got scammed BIG time just last week. Ok so I was looking for cheap puppies for sale at Kiji, and I stumbled upon an add saying Free bulldog puppies for Toronto and Mississauga locations. Me being dumb i noted that person saying please email me back ASAP. A couple of hours later he/she messaged me back, but I didn’t check my e-mail until the next day. The “reverend” (as he/she claims to be) said this:

    Hello,
    Thanks for getting back to me regarding the English bulldog puppies …All the pups are AKC and CKC both male and female registered,with current shots,vet checked and health documents.They are raised as members of our family under our feet’s with great love,care and attention and do seek only good loving homes. All the puppies are 12 weeks old. I am happy to read from you.Actually i will like to know why you are willing to get these pups.Breeding or just as a pet.I will also like to know more about you.I was wondering if you ever kept a puppy before.All i need for this puppy(s) is a very good home.These pups are treated as members of our family with great love and attention.I am not interested in money,but at the same time,interested in a good home for them.Am a Baptist missionary volunteer from Toronto,Canada presently in Cameroon for a volunteer trip working with the Baptist Children Foundation. http://www.baptistorphans.faithweb.com I was thinking we will leave Cameroon back to the Canada,but the crew makes us to understand that we have to go to Kampala but i will not like to take these pups there,So am in search of some one who will take these lil puppies as a member of their family,I am asking nothing but just the shipping fees which is $150.00 to get one ship to you.Shipping from here won’t be a problem.Furthermore,shipping is going to take just hours from here to get to you and they will be delivered directly to your home.Waiting to hear from you asap.
    Rev.Pastor Che

    Since he/she was a reverend I believed him/her. Even for a slight second it never crossed my mind that everything was a scam. So then i replied back and said a few things about myself even thanking the person for giving me an opportunity to own one. I even gave my number to contact me. Which by the way he/she never did. she replied saying this:

    Hello,
    Thank you very much for your respond. I’m very impressed to read from you and am now fully assured that you would be able to provide one of the pups with a good loving home and also show him all the love,care and attentio he would ever need. The puppy named Barack and Colan are males. As i earlier mentioned, am asking just the shipping fees which is $150 to get the puppy transported to you. I am going to transport the puppy using a pet courier and transportation would take 7 hours flight. The puppy would be delivered to your home. You would have to provide me with the following information which am going to use at the transport agency in transporting the puppy to you,ie.
    your full name:……………
    home address:……………
    City:……………..
    Zip code:……………..
    Country:………………
    Telephone number:…………….
    Immediately you make the payment, i would get the puppy transported to you immediately and then provide you with the flight information which would enable you to know when the puppy would be delivered to your home. Could you please respond and let me know which of the puppies you would like to adopt.
    Thanks and waiting for your respond.
    Regards.
    Rev.

    And so thats exactly what I did. I sent the “reverend” $150.00 through Western Union under the name of Craig Che, but in the emails it said Che kate. It still never crossed my mind that I was getting scammed. The BIGGEST mistake of my life I tell ya! .So then That night the “reverend” emailed me back saying:

    Hello,
    I am emailing you from the airport. Colan is at the airport and he would be shipped this morning Cameroon time. Colan would be shipped at 8:45AM Cameroon time. I guess you are sleeping now because it’s mid night in Canada now. I would email you with the flight details as soon as the airport provides me with it.

    Canada’s time is 4 hours back. The next day I quickly checked my E-mail and this is what the “reverend” had to say:

    Hello,
    The airport manager called me on and phone and said that he has sent you an email regarding the insurance fees for the puppy. Could you please respond and let me know if you have received any email from them.
    Regards.

    I got an E-mail (attachment) from the airport saying: The puppy is coming with all the necessary papers needed, but as the cameroon veterinarian must conduct another test to be sure of theirs health status,It was done ,all was fine and Medication Papers were accurate ,
    With regards to Article 13 of the Cameroon pet transportation constitution. No animals ( pets) are allowed to be transported out of the country without them being assured. 95% of the assurance fees is refundable upon delivery.
    We are therefore letting you know that you have to pay an insurance fee of $120 now before we can get the puppy transported to you. 95% of the insurance fees ($120) would be refunded back to you upon delivery.
    This payment is to be done VIA MONEYGRAM  or WESTERN UNION BECAUSE WE HAVE THEIR UNITS AT OUR HEADQUARTERS IN DOUALA- CAMEROON DESIGNED FOR SUCH TRANSACTIONS.

    PAYMENT REPORTS

    Stud Service FEE……..  $28 ( PAID BY SENDER)
    DELIVERY CHARGES………………$100 ( PAID )

    MEDICAL BOOK FEE……… $20 ( PAID BY SENDER)
    Insurance fees…………$120 ( TO BE PAID BY RECEIVER)
    TOTAL FEE CHARGED TO BE PAID
    $120 For Insurance.

    $120 to be PAID in TOTAL

    I was like OKAY?!. You could call me gullable. Let me tell ya at that time you wouldn’t even think that it’s a scam cause your focused on getting the puppy. So I quickly rushed to Western Union again to send money $120.00 not including the service charge of $24.00 . I went right when it opened cause the “management” of the pet traveller said pay ASAP so my puppy wouldn’t miss the flight. A couple of hours later they e-mailed me back saying:

    Dear customer,
    We have received the information and we are going to process the insurance papers now. We are going to email you with the flight details when the insurance papers are complete.
    Management.

    So I waited….and waited….and waited….until I couldn’t take it anymore with a tiny feeling of me getting scammed. So i searched up the pet traveller (Cam France Air Cameroon Pet Delivery ). I couldnt find any. I only found The airport but none for pets. So I was in a panic. I searched for scams till I found this website with similar stories like mine. I was like OH SH*T!!!!!! NOOOOO!!!!!! So I emailed the “reverend” back saying. He/she scammed me and I want my money back or i’ll sue you with some swear words in it. The reverend e-mailed me back saying he was legal and stuff like that. Please don’t believe what it says on the net. I know it’s hard to trust people these days. So then I told my mom what had happen and she said QUICKLY call Western Union costumer service since it’s open 24 hrs. The $150.00 was already picked up. Luckily my $120.00 was still there. I put a stop payment to it. The next day he emailed me saying How come there isn’t no money, how would I feel if i went to the bank and got no money. Funny thing is he/she had the guts to call ME THE FRAUD. Imagine that! The nerve! I responded saying he cheated me blah, blah, blah. Till this day we are still arguing through e-mail still trying to make me believe that he’s TRUE.

  5. I too fell for this scam. I paid out $367 total for a Boston Terrier that I found out was invisiable. I got emails from the owner the shipping company and the dept of animals in dallas,tx when the puppy had gotten to dallas he wanted another $750 I told him he could keep the puppy, I had realized it was a scam by this point. I just wish I would have realized it a day sooner I would have never sent the money. I didn’t lose much but the fact that my two small children are heart broken because they will not be getting a puppy pisses me off. I hope like hell that someone finallys catches this person.

  6. a new scam Hello

    I am Mr.Elvis Adewale. a Computer Scientist with the central bank of Nigeria. I am 26 years old,I just started working with the C.B.N, I eventually came across your funds file and founf out it was marked X and your release disk painted RED, I took time to study it and found out that you have paid VIRTUALLY all fees and certificate but the fund was not released to you.

    The most annoying thing is that they dont want to tell you the truth that on no account will they ever release your funds to you,instead they let you spend money unnecessarily. I do not intend to work here all the days of my life, I can release this funds to you on one condition, that is if you can gurantee me of my security, and how I can run away from this Nigeria if I do this, because if I don’t run away from this country after i’ve made the transfer to you, I will be seriously in trouble and my life will be in danger.

    This is like a Mafia setting in Nigeria, you may not understand this i underastand this because you are not a Nigerian. The only thing I will need to release your funds to you is a special HARD DISK we call it HD120 GIG. I will buy two of it, recopy your information, destroy the previous one, punch in transfer secret codes to the transfer computer for the funds to reflect in your bank account within 24 banking hours. I will clean up the tracer and destroy your file, after which I will run away from Nigeria to meet with you. If you are interested.

    AS SOON AS I RECEIVE YOUR EMAIL I WILL LET YOU KNOW HOW MUCH THE DISK WILL COST YOU.
    Do get in touch with me immediately, You should send to me your convenient tel/fax numbers and contact address for easy communications and also re-confirm your banking details, so that there won’t be any mistake in transferring your funds.
    For phone conversation,please call me on +234-8138371821
    Regards,
    Mr.Elvis Adewale.

  7. omg these people made some money off of us. they took $280 from me. they tired to get me to get me to pay $860 more. i figured out that i got scammed then. it was for 2 chihuahua puppies.

  8. So, they are still up to it…..Just last night I was contacted by a “Kimberly Mitchell” after I responded to an ad for a free yorkie. I asked why it is free. Here is what ensued:
    Hello Dear
    I am very glad on your interest on my yorkie puppy ready to be a family companion she is called Bella and is 11 weeks old and she is an outstanding akc female registered puppy with an awesome pedigree.She is akc registered and vet checked and is full of natural beauty and will all make a very good pet.She is medically well and is very friendly with kids,adults and other pets.I am actually giving Bella out because she was always cared and looked after by my daughter (Mai) but with a heavy heart Mai was diagnosed to have developed a pontine brain tumour only last month.She was given radiotherapy,which initially caused the tumour to regress,but in the end her condition got worse after days of hospitalization,and she finally died two weeks ago.It’s so sad and tragic.I’ve heard people say that God loves those who love him,but how can that be true when my daughter died of brain tumour? All my life i and my family have been Christians,and God still decided to take my daughter from me.I have tried my very best to cope but I feel that I just exist,I don’t live anymore,or am the one who is dead and living in hell especially when i look at Bella which my daughter let..It was my daughter who died some weeks ago..tomorrow it may be her puppy and which i do not want that to happen.there is no cure for grief and loss of a child.It was really very terrible and unexpected.i have very bad memories when i see Bella around me,because she was always together with Mai since i am always busy at work and so i want to forget all the bad memories so that is why i am placing Bella out for adoption,i am looking for a reasonable,knowledgeable and cautious family who can offer her tenderness,nursery with lots of love kisses and hugs…so that is why i want to give her out so that she should not suffer because Mai was the one that was taking care of her and so since Mai is no more and I’ve not got the time to stay with her and provide her with the care she needs that’s why I’ve been looking for a good pet loving and caring home for her that will show her the love experience which Mai had once shown to her.I will like you to promise me in God’s name that u will provide this cute baby with all her needs and show her the love she deserves.
    Bella is very sensitive and portray the following she is fully vaccinated,crate trained,hand fed,USDA standard,potty/house trained,micro chipped and will have a complete written vet check done when she wants to leave to be sure of her good health.Home-raised, family socialized puppy with sweet,loving and playful temperament,loves children and is up to date on shots.Bella is 11 weeks old weighs 2.8ibs and she is expected to be 5.1ibs at full grown all i will like to here from you is to promise me that you would shower Bella with lots of TLC and i would never like that my baby should end up in a shelter or rescue.She will come in a ventilated crate and blankets for cold.I would like to ask you some few questions if you do not mind.I will like to have the information so that i can be clearly convince that you will provide a good and lovely home for Bella..So Please i will like to know the following from you to see if my baby will be in good loving home
    1:Whats your full names?
    2:Are you Married?
    3:Do you have kids?
    4:Do you have other pets at your home?
    5:Are you a breeder,do you think of breeding her?
    6:How soon do you need her,will you care for her?
    7:Do you have a large yard that she can play in?
    8:Do you have a park in your area where she can play with other pets?
    Would it be possible for you send me monthly pictures so i can know how she is doing in her new home.Sorry for asking such questions but i am just trying to look a good and loving home for my baby.She is very dedicated to what we may ask her and she is very kind.they,enjoy retrieving toys,but mostly loves the attention of the family…if you know that you will take good care of Bella i will be glad to read from you.we are a loving Christian family of now 4 we will be very happy if you take Bella,
    All you just need to do is to take good care of her and she will be yours for ever and will make a great addition to your family and will bring love to your home.You can contact me via email.
    waiting to read from you soon and may GOD bless you.
    Thanks
    Kimberly Mitchell
    I actually tried to minister to her because I am a Christian and my heart broke for her.
    Me
    Hi Kimberly,
    I can not begin to say how sorry I am to hear about your daughter. I am also a Christian so I do believe that there is a God and that He has a sovergn plan for everything that happens even if it is too big for us to be able to see it. I will so keep you in my prayers and for you and your family to find peace in this terribly difficult and hurtfull time. Please cling to the truth that God loves you and this is not “punishment” for something God is mad at you about. This is the time to seek out Christian friends and others who have gone through the grief of loosing a child and how they got through it. I believe that God alows his children to go through grief so that they can help someone else who is going through the same grief.
    Bella is a beautiful puppy and I would love very much to give her a home. When I look at pictures of these precious little puppies my heart just aches for one! I am a responsible pet owner (my cat will be 12 this fall) and I have a compassion for pets. My husband and I are non-smokers and own our own house and have a half-acre fenced in back yard. We have lived here for 7 years with our 2 boys (now 9 and 7). We welcomed a new baby girl in March. I have wanted a yorkie for several years now but really didn’t have the time for a new pet but now that I have a baby again I am staying at home with her full time. I absolutely love Bella’s name! I would love nothing more than to keep you updated with pictures of her in her new home. I do not intend to breed her and there is a new park not far from us that has a special fenced area for little dogs (a seperate fenced area for the big dogs). I am willing to take Bella immediatly if that is what you prefer. My full name is Sherri May and my husband’s name is Tommy May.
    If there is any information that you needed that I did not answer just let me know.
    I live just outside Atlanta, Ga. Where are you located? Please let me know what your terms are.
    Thank you and God bless you too,
    Sherri

    Hello Sherri,
    i am very glad to read from you it really shows how caring and interested you are in Bella.You don’t know how you make me feel when i hear you promising me to give Bella a loving and caring home and i know that she will be a good house pet and you will take very good care of her.She will be very happy with you and will make a good house pet,she loves to play,loves other pets and kids..You see i really love Bella so much all i want for her right now is a lovely home that will show her the love she needs so due to the assurance that you have given me i have decided to give to you Bella because i know that you will take very good care of her.i am so happy because you are willing to give this puppy a loving,caring and friendly home and i also assure you that she will be the best puppy you will ever have as she is full of life and fun ok….i want her to leave as soon as possible because she is always alone at home so give me the following information below so that i can use it to fly her to your nearest airport.So right now i am in the Central Endicott of British Cameroun for a trip so that i can forget all the bad memories of my daughter so since you are far from here i think the most appropriate means of reception of Bella is through delivery to your home by a delivery agency which offers door step delivery.So all you will be required to take care of her airfare of $110 ok My family and I are very happy to find someone like you and not only as a carer, but a God fearing one who will treat my baby as she wants.please do not send Bella to a pets rescue or sell her do you promise please do take very good care of Bella.My priority is to have a wonder-full home for her all i will need from you right now in other to get these puppy are your

    How do you need me to send you the funds to ship her? And please rest assure, I would NEVER let her go to an animal shelter or rescue home.
    Thanks,
    Her
    Hello Sherri,
    i am very happy to read from you.i’m overwhelmed,my family is very happy to hear that you are willing to take very good care of Bella and provide her with the love we had once shown to her.My son Franklin is very happy that you are willing to provide a wonderful home for Bella and show her the love she needs.So i will start with her paper work and also start preparing her for her new home.I will just take the details along side with her to the airport and register her in your name and also proceed with all her documents.I will also take all her available papers so that they can be sure of her good health so to process the papers can take about 4hrs.i will also take her so that they can take some of her photos and issue her passport and give her full names so that they can put it on the passport.I will also take some of her shots so that they can use it so that we should not spend alot of time there.all you need to do now is to pay the airfare then as soon as you pay the money Bella will be leaving to your location with the next possible flight.I will get to you as soon as the airfare is paid with the full flight details so that you should be able to pick up Bella when she arrives.So all is left now for you to send the money for Bella’s flight and you are going to do that through Money Gram so so it will be easier to pick up the money and pay her airfare.
    Thanks and waiting to read from you soon

    This is when I came across this web site with so many similar stories. I copied and pasted one back to her and said “sound familiar? Don’t contact me again”.
    Thank you all who posted their stories! It helped me not become a victim.

    1. those people scammed me bout a month ago. i was so devastated and embarrassed.now everytime i see an add that sounds suspicious i report it. its so wrong

  9. My god…I got scammed unfortunately when it was too late. Now I scan the websites for more of these people and report them. I have been to the authorities also. I am now in the process of trying to nab these people that scammed me….and they have a cheek to use the same names and photos they used to scam me…but they think I am someone else! Can’t the IP’s of these users be tracked, and for that matter they must be able to track these people through Western Union etc.
    There is no way that these bastards can’t be caught…can there?
    I am astounded as to how they can keep doing this to people, after having been reported and they are still doing it.

      and female Siberian husky puppies for re homing,as they socialized well
      with each other.Their temperament is Good,they are play full
      with,kids and other pets.They are more comfortable with toys as
      this prevent them from getting bored.They are health Guaranteed
      and AkC Regs….They are up to date on
      all shots/deworming.They will be Delivered with their health
      papers along side vet records.They are called max and velma
      and they are 14 weeks 2 days old.

      I am actually giving out these puppies because they

      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 6 weeks on
      her way back from her piano classes and i have very bad memories when
      i see these puppies around me,because they were always together with her 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 Jenner used to,as max and velma has been very lonely since Jenner 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 these puppies..I am presently in Cameroon for Research on Medicine Plants and

      i will Deliver 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 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 .I just hope you will love them…..I

      will also like you to promise me that you will always send pictures to me monthly so that I can see how they are doing in

      your home…… .I will be waiting for your mail.

      Hello Dear
      I am very glad on your interest on my yorkie puppy ready to be a family companion she is called Bella and is 11 weeks old and she is an outstanding akc female registered puppy with an awesome pedigree.She is akc registered and vet checked and is full of natural beauty and will all make a very good pet.She is medically well and is very friendly with kids,adults and other pets.I am actually giving Bella out because she was always cared and looked after by my daughter (Mai) but with a heavy heart Mai was diagnosed to have developed a pontine brain tumour only last month.She was given radiotherapy,which initially caused the tumour to regress,but in the end her condition got worse after days of hospitalization,and she finally died two weeks ago..It’s so sad and tragic.I’ve heard people say that God loves those who love him,but how can that be true when my daughter died of brain tumour? All my life i and my family have been Christians,and God still decided to take my daughter from me.I have tried my very best to cope but I feel that I just exist,I don’t live anymore,or am the one who is dead and living in hell especially when i look at Bella which my daughter let.It was my daughter who died some weeks ago..tomorrow it may be her puppy and which i do not want that to happen.there is no cure for grief and loss of a child..It was really very terrible and unexpected.i have very bad memories when i see Bella around me,because she was always together with Mai since i am always busy at work and so i want to forget all the bad memories so that is why i am placing Bella out for adoption,i am looking for a reasonable,knowledgeable and cautious family who can offer her tenderness,nursery with lots of love kisses and hugs…so that is why i want to give her out so that she should not suffer because Mai was the one that was taking care of her and so since Mai is no more and I’ve not got the time to stay with her and provide her with the care she needs that’s why I’ve been looking for a good pet loving and caring home for her that will show her the love experience which Mai had once shown to her.I will like you to promise me in God’s name that u will provide this cute baby with all her needs and show her the love she deserves.
      Bella is very sensitive and portray the following she is fully vaccinated,crate trained,hand fed,USDA standard,potty/house trained,micro chipped and will have a complete written vet check done when she wants to leave to be sure of her good health.Home-raised, family socialized puppy with sweet,loving and playful temperament,loves children and is up to date on shots.Bella is 11 weeks old weighs 2.5ibs and she is expected to be 4.3ibs at full grown all i will like to here from you is to promise me that you would shower Bella with lots of TLC and i would never like that my baby should end up in a shelter or rescue.She will come in a ventilated crate and blankets for cold.I would like to ask you some few questions if you do not mind.I will like to have the information so that i can be clearly convince that you will provide a good and lovely home for Bella..So Please i will like to know the following from you to see if my baby will be in good loving home
      1:Whats your full names?
      2:Are you Married?
      3:Do you have kids?
      4:Do you have other pets at your home?
      5:Are you a breeder,do you think of breeding her?
      6:How soon do you need her,will you care for her?
      7:Do you have a large yard that she can play in?
      8:Do you have a park in your area where she can play with other pets?
      Would it be possible for you send me monthly pictures so i can know how she is doing in her new home.Sorry for asking such questions but i am just trying to look a good and loving home for my baby.She is very dedicated to what we may ask her and she is very kind.they,enjoy retrieving toys,but mostly loves the attention of the family…if you know that you will take good care of Bella i will be glad to read from you.we are a loving Christian family of now 4 we will be very happy if you take Bella,
      All you just need to do is to take good care of her and she will be yours for ever and will make a great addition to your family and will bring love to your home.You can contact me via email.
      waiting to read from you soon and may GOD bless you.
      Thanks
      Kimberly Mitchell

      i am very glad to read from you it really shows how caring and interested you are in Bella.You don’t know how you make me feel when i hear you promising me to give Bella a loving and caring home and i know that she will be a good house pet and you will take very good care of her.She will be very happy with you and will make a good house pet,she loves to play,loves other pets and kids..You see i really love Bella so much all i want for her right now is a lovely home that will show her the love she needs so due to the assurance that you have given me i have decided to give to you Bella because i know that you will take very good care of her.i am so happy because you are willing to give this puppy a loving,caring and friendly home and i also assure you that she will be the best puppy you will ever have as she is full of life and fun ok….i want her to leave as soon as possible because she is always alone at home so give me the following information below so that i can use it to fly her to your nearest airport.So right now i am in the Central Endicott of British Cameroon for a trip so that i can forget all the bad memories of my daughter so since you are far from here i think the most appropriate means of reception of Bella is through delivery to your home by a delivery agency which offers door step delivery.So all you will be required to take care of her airfare of $140 ok My family and I are very happy to find someone like you and not only as a carer, but a God fearing one who will treat my baby as she wants.please do not send Bella to a pets rescue or sell her do you promise please do take very good care of Bella.My priority is to have a wonder-full home for her all i will need from you right now in other to get these puppy are your

    3. All animal propositions from Cameroon, Nigeria, Kenya are fraud, scam!

      morrie.luis@yahoo.com – IP [41.202.192.190]

      Hello,
      thanks for the mail regarding my babies.I am so glad for the

      mail.I am saying so because last week ago as i was getting up from

      bed,i saw one of my babies lying dead in front of my house.NIna was no

      more which actually shows that she was killed by people in my neighbor

      wood.Forever this reason i can not keep this babies around that are

      neighbor wood so i really need to give them out.After long dedication

      of had work.I still have three of these babies left now..That is

      MIKI,MILO and Cintia.MIKI and MILO are boys.while Cintia is a 13 weeks

      old baby.But before giving these babies out i will want to now the sex

      u want or and how soon u want the baby coz i really need to give the

      babies out.Again i am giving these babies only to some one that can

      provide a forever loving and caring home.before we proceed with the

      adoption of this puppy u need to answer the following question below .

      Have u ever had a puppy?

      Do u promise to always send pics on how the puppy is doing?

      Do u have a vet doctor? right here in town,

      do you have any pets in your house

      are you going to take very good care of the puppy?

      are you a breeder of pets?

      What sex do u want?

      how soon do you need the puppy?

      where are you located?

      1. Keep on posting and educating people. Fact – every pet adoption proposal from West Africa (mostly Cameroon) is a scam and those criminals are using Western Union to steal our money.

    4. After going back and forth with a woman who called herself Ashley Suzzane, I got this final email. Other than the first sentence and the last, it is identical to the first email I got. In the first email, however, she told me that it was $120 for the crate, a price much lower than the advertized $210 on the Oogle.com website. The pictures that were sent were of an adorable little English Bulldog. What a shame that people will prey on innocent people that just want to adopt a dog.

      you soud very perfect and loving for our little baby. We are on a volunteer mission to Cameroon together with the UN malaria
      committee ,in regards to the disease in pregnant women and children. We
      traveled up here together with Daisy and my daughter. They wont allow
      Daisy into the country for reason being that, pets are not allowed into
      the country from other countries and i have been given a maximum of 2
      weeks to send her back to the states.we paid the shipping fee.but the crate that we brought here is rejected by the airport.so they need a new crate.the crate will cost you $90.so you can contact them ans make your arrangement for your the baby to be delivered to you asap.their web site is http://www.giptn.com

      contact them for more info about the delivery.
      Thanks

      NOW…my question is, does anyone know anything about GIPTN and whether or not they are a ligit company? I was supposed to contact them to send them the money.

    5. Lost 200.00 for a teacup yorkie and once I sent the money they want an additional 745.00 that they claim I will get back. But they can not give me any information about flights and claim that it will be deliveried to my home.

  10. i have came across a claimed woman with the email dame.marine@yahoo.com whome is a scammer

    i talked to her/it thru email and messenger and here is what was said

    i did not know they was a scammer until i saw another website saying people from cameroon are scammers…i decided to aggravate them a while…no spelling changed all actual words on the IM….This is all real…happened a while ago..
    but the emails had been going on for a week or so.

    Her:

    Me: Hello

    Her: yes

    Me: are you there?

    Her: how are you today?

    Me: a little mad

    Her: why?

    Me: because i am hoping that those precious puppies have a dark purple tongue meaning that they come from a champion bloodline

    I figured i would try to pull a fast one on her

    Her: no why say so

    are you there?

    Me: yes i am here

    Her: what came over you that you called me a SCAM??

    In a previous email i called her a scam and called her a few american words she obviously did not understand at all.

    Me: i’m sorry i just have had so many close encounters with scammers

    i figured i’d be all nice to get her to trust me.

    Her: i have told you that i am not one of them is that o.k

    so you just have to believe and trsut me same as i trust you is that o.k.

    Me: ok if u don’t mind stop doing that
    o.k is annnoying

    i was getting pissed because all she did was type that repeatedly.

    Her: doing what??
    ???

    Me: typing o.k all the damn time

    Her: i understand you o.k,.

    Me: what did i just tell u?

    Her: typing o.k all the damn time

    yes she really copied and pasted what i had said to her..

    Me: i meant stop doing that

    Her: what?
    i dont understand

    Me: stop typing o.k all the damn time

    Her: i have understood you now

    Me: thank you
    are you a morphadite?

    i spelled it wrong just in case she tried to google it or look on another website for the word….she wasn’t that smart. i was asking random questions like that for my own amusement..lol

    Her: why asked???

    Me: are you?
    i need to know

    Her: why asked
    no why asked

    Me: its important

    Her: so i have emailed you the details which you will take to the sore and send the money
    i have told you that i need to be well assured that you will be getting these puppies from me

    Me: what do u want me to do take it to an infected wound?
    answer my question are you a morphadite?
    do you even know what a morphadite is?

    Her: take the address to the nearest store and send the money so that i can be rest assured that you will get the puppies??
    no

    Me: its a honest person in the u.s.a

    Her: i am not located now in U.S.A

    Me: i thought u were in cameroon?

    i tried to trip her up into saying she was from somewhere else..

    Her: BUT i am an honest person
    yes i am in Cameroon?

    Me: cameroon is in africa right

    Her: and thats where these puppies will be shipped from
    YES??

    Me: ur not honest u lier

    Her: ??
    WHY SAY SO???

    again i tried to trip her up…failed attempt..

    Me: africa is not in the u.s.a

    Her: I SAID THAT I AM NOT IN U..S.A

    Me: ok

    i gave up that time..but just wait it gets better.

    Her: I AM PRESENTLY LOCATED HERE IN CAMEROON?
    you misunderstood me o.k

    no i never misunderstood her she just actually had a brain cell or two to even to notice it..

    Me: are you male or female?

    Her: they are one male and one female

    that was right there was actually one male and female she was trying to scam people into buying, but never get them

    Me: what are you?
    i did not mean the dogs

    Her: i am a female

    Me: ok

    Her: as my email address reads dame.marine

    no shit i knew that duh!!!! not she is trynna be a smartass to me..oh heck no..

    Me: why do u want the money now?

    Her: i need the money just to be well assured that you would be getting these puppies and also to arrange the papers for these puppies to be shipped on Friday

    thats what she said in the emails a bunch of times, the same old BS everytime i asked her that question. but this was the first and last time talking to her on IM.

    Me: why can’t you wait until friday?

    my boyfriend didn’t get paid until friday and i was thinking all this was for real and i told her that i would send her the money then and she argued with me about it, saying she needed it now in the emails.

    Her: because i need to be assured that you will be getting these puppies

    same old lie again and again…

    Me: have the puppies been vaccinated for lime disease?
    you can’t ship them unless they have been

    i spelled it wrong and seeing if she would bait onto it, even tho lyme disease is real i know she didn’t know what it was.

    Her: and i will like to arrange all the papers and on Friday i will just take them to the airlines and book thier flight
    and get back to you with the flight details which are\
    the arrival and departure time of the puppies
    including the bill number
    yes the puppies have been vaccinated and will come alongside with all its papers

    Me: are you sure these puppies have been vaccinated for lime disease?

    Her: yes i am

    Me: thats great

    Her: as i told you that i am an honest person

    yea honest my damn ass..

    Me: shipping a puppy on a plane is hard
    have these puppies been fed anti-sickness medicine?

    Her: i said that these puppies has being well checked and they will still be checked at the airlines and you will be given the confirmation from the airlines about the puppies condition

    Me: the vaccination for lime disease is in a pill does that come with the puppies?
    i need to know from you

    Her: these puppies will be delivered at your door steps with all the papers

    Me: ok i understand that
    but please answer my questions

    why are you selling them so cheap?

    i was being serious and new i wouldn’t get the serious answer i had wanted, can you say SCAMMER?? yep, she sure was..

    Her: i am not selling these puppies but i am giving them out for adoption where by you would have to provide just the shipping fee so as to get them

    Her: the shipping fee $260 for them

      im going to reply to them and tell them that i know this is a scam

      1. so while i write my kind email to them, they have sent me 2 more emails.

        “are you there?” and
        “I ALREADY SENT YOU THE ADDRESS,I WILL LIKE TO KNOW IF YOU ARE ON YOUR WAY NOW TO MAKE THE PAYMENTS SO THAT I CAN GET THE PUPPY READY”

        looks like theyre getting impatient.
        haha, this is the email i sent them:

        Okay. This has gone too far.
        I tried to find the city of “st. cameroon” on googe maps with no sucess. Then I searched “st. cameroon” on google. I found millions of websites with “st. cameroon puppy scams”. Those people got exactly the same email you had sent me.
        I just wanted to tell you, go fuck yourself you piece of shit. You are a fucking waste of space. Go take one of your maltese puppy “babies” and shove it up your ass. Hope it fits. Did you know that Cameroon is in africa? I hope you catch aids and die.
        You fucking scammers digust me. You jackass; how could you scam people and take their money?
        watch out, ill be reporting this.
        Also, your husbands reserving seats for the dogs on the plane? go to fucking hell.
        have a good life you fucking bitch

        P.S. You might want to get a new fake name and email.

        ^very satisfying to write. i hope they reply 🙂

All my life I and my family have been Christians,and God still
    decided to take my daughter from me.I have tried my very best to cope but I feel that I just exist,I don’t live anymore,or am the one who is dead and living in hell especially when I look at Bella which my daughter let.It was my daughter who died some weeks ago..tomorrow it may be her puppy and which I do not want that to happen.there is no cure for grief and loss of a child.It was really very terrible and unexpected.I have very bad memories when I see Bella around me,because she was always together with Mai since I am always busy at work and so I want to forget all the bad memories so that is why I am placing Bella out for adoption,I am looking for a reasonable,knowledgeable and cautious family who can offer her tenderness,nursery with lots of love kisses and hugs…so that is why I want to give her out so that she should not suffer because Mai was the one that was taking care of her and so since Mai is no more and I’ve not got the time to stay with
    her and provide her with the care she needs that’s why I’ve been looking for a good pet loving and caring home for her that will show her the love experience which Mai had once shown to her.I will like you to promise me in God’s name that u will provide this cute baby with all her needs and show her the love she deserves.
    Bella is very sensitive and portray the following she is fully vaccinated,crate trained,hand fed,USDA standard,potty/house trained,micro chipped and will have a complete written vet check done when she wants to leave to be sure of her good health.Home-raised, family socialized puppy with sweet,loving and playful temperament,loves children and is up to date on shots.Bella is 11 weeks old weighs 22.2ibs and she is expected to be 42.8ibs at full grown all I will like to here from you is to promise me that you would shower Bella with lots of TLC and I would never like that my baby should end up in a shelter or rescue.She will come in a ventilated crate and blankets for cold.I would like to ask you some few questions if you do not mind.I will like to have the information so that I can be clearly convince that you will provide a good and lovely home for Bella..So Please I will like to know the following from you to see if my baby will be in good loving home

    Hello,

    Hello,
    i am very happy to read from you.My family is very happy to hear that you are willing to take very good care of Bella and provide her with the love we had once shown to her.My son Franklin is very happy that you are willing to provide a wonderful home for Bella and show her the love she needs.So i will start with her paper work and also start preparing her for her new home.I will just take the details along side with her to the airport and register her in your name and also proceed with all her documents.I will also take all her available papers so that they can be sure of her good health so to process the papers can take about 4hrs.i will also take her so that they can take some of her photos and issue her passport and give her full names so that they can put it on the passport.I will also take some of her shots so that they can use it so that we should not spend alot of time there.all you need to do now is to pay the airfare then as soon as you pay the money Bella will be leaving to your location with the next possible flight.I will get to you as soon as the airfare is paid with the full flight details so that you should be able to pick up Bella when she arrives.So all is left now for you to send the money for Bella’s flight and you are going to do that through Money Gram so so it will be easier to pick up the money and pay her airfare..
    Thanks and waiting to read from you soon
    Maria Claria

    I said I would not send money by Money Gram and asked for the number to the airport to pay them directly…

    hello i like you to know i that i had to leave the state to cameroon for a trip and for the airport i dont know their but i know their email which is yaounde-nsimalen_intl.airport@live.com i will be waiting to read from you as soon as you contact the airport ok

    Ok after 2nd e-mail I knew it was a scam, but I want to waste their time a little since they got my family’s hopes up for nothing!

  13. I am a little concerned because I almost paid money to get a yorkie. The person gave me such a story and I ended up giving a photo of our family, our home address and personal information. I am scared that they might come and harm us. I know better than that and I regret that I did it just for a dog. They have no compassion and no consideration for people’s feelings. I told my child about the pet and was devastated to know that we weren’t getting it. Any thoughts?

    1. hi i did the same thing to some guy named terry kahn, i am scared too! and then i said i knew it was a scam and he said go fuck yourself you peice of shit and i am scared! atleast i live in a small town no one knows about!

  14. I am worried because I sent a family picture, home address and personal information to a pet scammer in Africa. The person told me this nice story and I fell for it, yet I didn’t send the money when I found out it was a scam. I am very concerned for the safety of my family. Any thoughts on this matter?

  15. i was scammed just this morning, luckily i smelled a rat when the email stated to tell the post office that i’m making out the money gram payment to my sister in cameroon!!!

    this ad was posted by a wwhits@yahoo.com.

    they claim to have huskies, yourkshire terriers, bulldogs and west highland terriors in all different parts of the world.
    Thanks to sites like this i lost no money and am now more aware of how real breeders trade. I will find my husband his perfect husky but not on the internet.

    here is the first email i recieved from the fakes:

    Hello,
    Thanks for the mail and your interest toward my lovely babies. They
    are male and female,11weeks 2days old.They are champion bloodline,
    registered,vet check , dna tested..well tamed and potty
    trained, good associate of kids and other house hold pets also simple
    to learn. To begin I will start asking you some questions.
    -Are you a breeder?
    -Do you have kids?
    -Are use to puppies?
    -Are you sure that you are going to take care of any of my babies?
    -Gift me a Brief Description about your Environment?
    -Do you have a vet doctor?
    -Were Exactly are you located? i am giving out them for free
    since they were owned and taken care of by my late daughter whom i
    lost to a drunk driver two weeks ago.due to the mobile nature of my
    work since i work with EDICEF,i have relocated
    to Belfast and now i am in seminar that would last for
    3months and it will not be possible for mr to take
    proper care of the puppies which was a sole responsibility of my late
    daughter. They really do remind me of her sad memories all the time i
    look at them and hurts deeply.. So, my greatest desire is to find
    someone who can properly take care of the puppies and if you can i
    will be so grateful, i can arrange for delivery if you cannot come
    right up here for the
    pick… Delivery am sure will be moderate since we spent just just too
    little bringing the puppies up here. If this is ok by you, i will
    immediately need the following details in order to drop off the
    puppies as soon as possible at the delivery agency so that delivery
    can be done to your home soonest..

    Home address…………….
    City/Town…………………
    Mobile number…………..
    Land line number………….
    Postal code……………….
    Be reminded that these puppies are for free and all you will have to
    do is to pay £150 only for the delivery of each of the puppies to the
    delivery agency which will deliver the puppies to your home.My prayer
    is that you love and care for these puppies just as my daughter did and i
    will be always great-full to you if you should.Do let me know if all
    is fine.07023050690

    I replied with all my info asking for photo’s and then re-read the email, glad i did as alarm bells went off, but as i’d already responded i thought i’d just play along then i recieved this:
    Hello
    it was really nice reading from you again and i am very confident
    given the puppy over to you from what you said to me i have no fear,i
    know the puppy is going into a loving and caring home which i was
    looking for to give her into,please all i need from you is to show her
    total love and care and always make sure you send to us her pictures
    for us to see how she is doing.
    I have seen all your information,tomorrow morning i am going to
    drive to the delivery agency and have her registered for the delivery
    to be done over to your home,when i do have the puppy registered for
    the delivery to be done,the delivery agency are going to contact you
    for confirmation,the delivery agency are going to send to you a
    confirmation email for you to confirm your home delivery address and
    on how you will be making the payment of the 150 pounds to them for
    the delivery to be done and once you are done with the payment,they
    are going to activate the delivery and have the puppy send over to
    your home,the puppy will be coming with all her documents,food
    stuff,toys which i will be sending her with.
    Thanks and waiting
    . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

    They sent me some stunning photo’s of a very sweet husky entitled GINA.JPG i asked loads of questions about where the dog was coming from, y it wasn’t being quarrentined as it was coming in from outside the UK they ignored my questions. i received this:
    Hello
    i am just coming in from the delivery service were i have registered and given them the puppy for the puppy to be delivered over to you already,the delivery service are going to send to you a confirmation email and will call you for you to confirm your home delivery address and make the payment,as soon as you hear from them do let me know ,all i need from you is totl love and care for this puppy
    waiting
    . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
    After that i recieved phone calls asking for the money, i convinced them on the phone i worked for animal customs at an airport and people dont just send their animals over for £150. yet this guy still continued to demand money so i told them i was a police officer and we were planning to raid them and they were going jail!! thus ending all contact.

  16. omg I can’t believe I almost fell for this. Now I am not stupid. I am very good with computers and I know how scams work. I used to work at this place called “relay” and it was a site used for deaf people to make phone calls. There was a version of it online, and people would make scams through there all the time. We even had a checklist that we could look at to see if someone was trying to scam someone else. The specifications were
    *having an e-mail address similiar to a name like kareng55@yahoo.com or ashleysmith24@yahoo.com or something like that.
    *obviously being from some foreign country.
    *their spelling and grammar wasn’t quite right. it was correct most of the time but not quite there…

    and despite all of this, I only caught on when they asked for the payment. they said it would be $170 for the dog to be shipped here. but I said I couldn’t afford it right now and they even said they’d pay for half of it. so I’d be paying $90 or so. but once they said they were in africa and that they’d need to do eithe r a monygram or money order through western union, that made me slam the brakes.
    I am not sure why, but when I worked at relay the scammers always wanted Western Union money grams. or money orders. It seems like it would be safe, but it isn’t. idk how it works, but it will never end well. Maybe they don’t have a guarantee for over seas or something? I’m not sure.
    They even used someone’s colorado driver’s license and an actual birth certificate. I feel bad for this girl! she was only 18. it seemed pretty legit. (unless that was fake)
    They did a great job. here is the first e-mail i got back from them after I inquired about their ad.
    Hello,
    Thanks for the interest in my puppy .She is still available to any one prepared to
    provide her with enough care and love,where she will be well spoiled with all her needs.She needs a good home to rescue her now and for ever.Getting a good home for Wendy is the most essential thing I want for her… So i have some few questions for you which I hope you get back to me with the answers sincerely. I just want to make sure she is getting into the right home. Hope you don’t mind?

    Some few questions for you.

    Where about are you located?

    Why do you want Wendy?

    How soon do you want her?

    Do you have any experience in raising English Bulldogs (or pets in general)?

    Do you presently have kids and other pets?

    Are you morally and financially prepared for Wendy?

    Who will look after the puppy when you are not around?

    Will you accept to send me photos of Wendy in future so that i can see how you are taking care of her?

    Can you also promise that you will take good care of Wendy?
    A name and contact number? Would be appreciated.

    Hope you don’t mind getting back to me with the answers as soon as possible.At
    least with this information,i will get to know better where Wendy will
    be going to .

    I am giving Wendy away because I relocated to 14 Stewy St., Yaounde, Cameroon for research on medicinal plants.My home state is Oklahoma where my parents are.when I arrived this new area two days ago, I noticed that my working hours are not O.K. for me to continue to keep her with me, I am always very busy at work and have less time to spend with the puppy. Can you imagine I cant spend more than four hours with her a day? My apartment here does not accept pets and animals so I cannot keep Wendy with me as it is highly restricted in my apartment. That’s, she’s always lonely.

    Wendy’ s transportation and delivery fee will all cost $140 .I will be more than happy if Wendy gets a new good and loving home now..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 i do.

    Below are some important information you will need to know about Wendy.

    About Wendy;

    Breed:Pure breed English Bulldog.

    Gender: Female

    Pet name: Wendy

    Age: 11 week(s), 2day

    Color/Markings: Red And White

    Champion Bloodlines: Yes

    Champion Sired: No

    Wendy is very playful love to play around with toys and kids,she is health guaranteed and vet check……she is up to date on all shots and will be coming along side her health papers and vet records.She is potty trained.

    Wendy has been very lonely since i relocated for this research so the best thing i decided
    on as my colleague advised me was to send her to a loving home that will take maximum care of her.I really count on you if you can be there for this puppy. She will be coming with the following items;

    # Health certificate.

    # AKC Registration Paper.

    # 1 year health guarantee.

    # Complete medical record.

    # Crate.

    # Playing toys.

    # Sample Pouch of Feed.

    # And a puppy kit starter.

    # A booklet having detail information about English bulldogs.

    I just hope you will love her the way i do.I will also like you to
    promise me that you will always send pictures to me so that
    i can see how she is doing in your home.

    Some photos of Wendy are attached.

    Feel free to ask any question regarding the rescuing of Wendy.

    Thanks very much and hope to read from you real soon.
    Courtney.

    The thing that made me wonder, was that if they were a true animal lover, they would have known that I did not meet the exact needs of english bulldogs. I mentioned I had two other dogs and english bulldogs don’t get along well with other dogs that much. Also “wendy” would be living outside and english bulldogs are very sensitive to temperature. The fact that I live in Albuquerque, nm should have have made some kind of light go off in their heads or something. but they don’t know anything about english bulldogs. They sent me a lot of pictures and were very cooperative.
    at least after giving them my name and address and phone number, I realized that they were a scam. Hopefully that mistake won’t be too bad…I’m scared though that they will use my identity.
    I guess we’ll just have to wait and see. anyway, i hope this helped everyone.
    thanks!

    It was a little wierd that she seemed to be such a good christian yet stated that If God loved others like they love him then why would her baby have passed away from a brain tumor. Then it also was a little fishy that she wrote after hospitalization she finally died. I know that if i just had a child that passed away i wouldnt write finally or died. passed away is just way more out of respect and this person should be ashamed for making up such a story!!! I definitly will be way more careful when shopping online..

  18. These scams are not just limited to Craigslist. I inquired about a teacup Yorkie for adoption on Bashorfreeclassifieds.com. Ad is below:

    Loves to give lots of kisses hugs.Have always been around children and other pet and very used to being together. They are AKC reg,current on all their recent shots and de wormed,vet checked with all their vet and registration papers available and up to date,potty,paper and crate trained.
    They will be coming alongside with all their play toys,air conditional travel crate,healths and reg papers. As for our location ,I was located in Spokane ,WA and just relocated to Kingston Blvd, Cameroon due a research purpose with the UNICEF branch located here and the climate condition was not favorable for my babies and i have to stay long here so What I am concern about here is your assurance on their health,good care and safety.they needs so much love caution and stability in location.If your home is open to this darling,they will be on their way to your home and i am really hoping it happens.

    Recent pictures of babies are attached to this mail so that you can have a general view of their beauty and they look alike because they are from the same litter. Get back soon lets see how they gets to your home…OK waiting for your mail in anticipation of getting a sure response on taking good care of them

    Me – Knowing that the price was to cheap for these registeed dogs, I did a search on google for Kinston Blvd, Cameroon and found this site and so determined that this is a scam. Bless all of you. There is another posting on the same website for two bulldogs. I am going to get in touch with the site regarding the scams, hopefully before anyone loses any money.

    Below is the posting for the bulldogs

  19. I saw an ad for free monkeys a few days ago, and then i looked up st cameroon, and came across this website, and i want to say thanks to all of you who have posted this, and the creator of this as well, and i am giving her a run for her money. thank you so much, and i will post our conversations on her for eeryone to read.

  20. Oh my god. Viki, thank you so much for posting that!! I nearly fell for the trap and lucky me you’re here. Almost paid $90 for two Siberian Husky puppies.

    I saw her ad on http://www.mybiz.com.my/bkclassifieds/classified_details.php?id=153398. You might wonder where is my location – Malaysia.

    She wrote this on her first email to me:
    Hi

    All sounds well and its nice reading from you. I am having male
    and female Siberian husky puppies for re homing,as they socialized well
    with each other.Their temperament is Good,they are play full
    with,kids and other pets.They are more comfortable with toys as
    this prevent them from getting bored.They are health Guaranteed
    and AkC Regs….They are up to date on
    all shots/deworming.They will be Delivered with their health
    papers along side vet records.They are called max and velma
    and they are 13 weeks 2 days old.

    I am actually giving out these puppies because they
    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 6 weeks on
    her way back from her piano classes and i have very bad memories when
    i see these puppies around me,because they were always together with her 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 Jenner used to,as max and velma has been very lonely since Jenner 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 these puppies..I am presently in Cameroon for Research on Medicine Plants and

    i will Deliver 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 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 .I just hope you will love them…..I will also like you to promise me that you will always send pictures to me monthly so that I can see how they are doing in your home…… .I will be waiting for your mail.They are not related and the price is for part of the shipping of both.

    Thanks,Anticipate your mail

    -do you have a vet that you will take the puppy to if need be?

    -will you send me pics of the pup when you have her?

    -do you have a vet you will take the puppy to?
    And what do you do for a living?When are you ready for this puppy .Sorry for all this Questions (i mean no offense) but just that i really need a very loving home for this puppy.I am giving away this puppy due to the fact that i am my daughter had an accident and I don’t have much time to careter for her .This has does cost my puppy to be lonelly which i don’t like since i like this treasure girl as my child.I am New helense Cameroon Victoria.if you have to get the puppy you just have to let me know more about you cos i will note love to give my puppy to any home considering what people tend to do with pets this day .and what i will need is just $175 for her adoption fee .Hope to read from you if this is okay with you lets proceed.So if you are adopting her, you will have to promise me of not just taking great care of her but loving and caring for her. ,.If you are ready for her you just have to cover her flight fee which is going to cost you $175 you get back if you are ok so that we can proceed with how she gets to arrive to yyour home. hope to read from you soon.

    Hello ,
    It was nice reading from you with the answers to my question .With this i can draw valid conclusions that i have seen a good home for my puppy. I do believe your home will be the right home for her because I love her so much and it is really hard on me giving her out but i have no choice for now.I am indeed sorry to the fact you can not come and meet me now in pa because i relocated to New Helense Cameroon which is six hours to you so we only have to get lisa ship over to you ok. But before we proceed with this, it will be an agreement between the two of us that you will never give out my baby for sale.i have never intended to give her up for sale. it will seem to me as if i am giving out my own biological daughter for sale.what i need from you as the reward for my baby is to make sure you treat her with great love and affection like your biological child and note should also be taken that i will not be giving out the puppy on a first come
    first serve basics as I need total guarantee and commitement before
    deciding on a new home for my baby If you are prepared to respect the above conditions then
    get back with your……….

    Hello Brooke,
    After reading your lovely words .I and my husband just agreed that your home is going to be a perfect match for lisa what we have been searching for a very long time now.Please do keep to your promises of never selling the puppy because i and my family will always love to give you guys visits when we are back to the states to see how you are doing with the puppy.With the delivery details you just provided i can draw valid conclusions that your home is just to the kind of home i have been searching for lisa.Iile i said earlier where i am in now is far from you so we only have to the puppy ship over to the delivery details you just provided ok.The topograhpy is a little bit hilly and thus impart difficulties with the movement of cars that is why i suggested we get the puppy ship over using a competent pets express here.If you can trust me in sending the money you can as well get it directly to the pets express to get the puppy’s flight activated ok .Once more i am indeed very grateful.Regards
    Mrs Giogiana Lee.

    GRAFFITI PET EXPRESS SERVICES
    DOUALA BRANCH,
    CAMEROON.
    http://WWW.graffitipet-transport.tk

    Dear Client,
    WE WANT TO INFORM YOU THAT THE FLIGHT FOR YOUR PUPPY HAS JUST BEEN ACTIVATED BUT WITH DUE RESPECT YOUR PUPPY CAN NOT BE ON THE FLIGHT TONIGHT AT 10/40 BECAUSE OF THE FOLLOWING.

    VET PET INSURANCE DEPARTMENT(VPI)

    The Pets Control Department, after our custody of your Puppy at Nsimalene International airport (Cameroon) final check Point Terminal 3, wishes to bring the following to your attention;

    1..) Following the GRAFFITI Aviation 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 must be fully Insured by an Insurance Cooperation at the state of Origin against any eventuality.

    2..) Following a compromise between the GRAFFITI Aviation’s Complaint Commission and the US Financial Commission, it was concluded that “..the life of all pets being transported will be insured and this insurance fee should vary from one pet to another depending on Financial Value of the Animal.

    3.) The puppy is not having an INSURANCE COVERAGE LICENSE…………$270( usd )

    4.) The Puppy is not have a CUSTOM DUTY CERTIFICATE……………………..$250 (usd)

    From the above, the Refundable Life Insurance fee you are supposed to pay for the Puppy is;

    250+270 (life insurance charge reimbursable) = 500 (usd) .

    The insurance department will fully reimburse your $520( usd ) in the delivery process.This money will be handed over to you in cash by Two of our pet couriers at the port of arrival(Pitt international airport).Before that, we will issue you an insurance receipt which you will have to show to our pet couriers at Airport before collecting the refundable insurance funds.

    So we are expecting the sum of $520(usd) from you of which $ 500 (usd) will be refunded to you in cash when the puppy is been delivered to you by our courier agents.When you go through this, we do expect you to get back to us as soon as possible.

    REASONS WHY YOUR PUPPY NEEDS LIFE INSURANCE AND WHY WE IMPOSED A RESTRICTION TO SHIPPING PUPPY WITHOUT A REFUNDABLE LIFE INSURANCE;

    1.) Easy, Affordable Health care for Your Birds.Just like any other pet, birds are vulnerable to illnesses and health risks. The V PI Avian & Exotic Pet Plan covers medical treatments and surgeries for accidents and illnesses, minor treatments, as well as lab fees, prescriptions, X-rays and hospitalization. Birds are also covered for self-mutilation, feather-picking, egg binding surgery, neoplasia surgery and more. With a V PI policy, you’ll be able to afford quality care for your bird to ensure a lifetime of good health.
    2.) We recently paid charges of $60000 to one Mrs Anne Marie because her parrots contracted an illness in our care.Our insurance department was sued to court and had to pay charges to her for her parrot’s illness and did loose funds because her parrots never obtained Insurance.This accounts partially why we had to obtain the Non-shipping policy for parrots/pets without insurance.
    3.)Air Swiss-V PI department will compensate you for all your spending s in case of any illness your puppy contracts while in our custody.
    4.)In case of abandonment of puppy/pets at our custody, AIR SWISS-Refundable Insurance sector will care for the puppy in terms of feeding and housing and will charge for the owner of this parrots for the abandonment of pets-Livestock in general.

    When the puppy will be Delivered at Pitt airport Safely and Healthy,the insurance company shall Reimburse the 99.8% of your money you have paid.You shall Regain your full money and the safe arrival of your puppy So all you will have to do is make the transfer of the $520 Which we will get the documents and proceed with the transportation of your puppy.We Have scheduled a flight for Today Friday at 10:40 pm .You should not be afraid or feel bad of any thing because your money will be refunded when you receive your puppy,this is just to insure the Health and care of your puppy.It will be best the puppy don’t miss their flight that has been Scheduled for tonight.

    With all Respect Madam,,we will advise you make things fast if possible.

    GOT THAT EMAIL 3 TIMES—THEN WROTE THE WOMAN WHO WAS TRYING TO SCAM US—THIS IS WHAT WE WROTE AND WHAT SHE WROTE…

    WE WROTE:

    Mrs Giogiana,

    We have been very professional with you over the course of the last few days, and have wired you the money for the puppy in full so that you may ship her over to us. However there is a slight problem that seems to have arisen. The pet transportation service you have chosen, graffitipet, has notified me that there is no insurance on the puppy for its flight. Total coverage of the animal would seem to cost about 520 us dollars. Since we agreed that we would send you the one hundred and seventy five dollars, which we wired to you this morning, for the travel costs of the puppy, it is in my opinion you should take care of this newly arisen fee. This can be done in one of two ways.

    Wire the 520 dollars to either me, or the following.

    DIRECTOR MANAGER : MR MBAH SOLOMON

    TEST QUESTION : WHICH YEAR?
    ANSWER : 2009

    Once the puppy is delivered we will wire you back the 520 dollars that you use to ship her over here, as it is promised to us that the shipping agency will refund the insurance money once the pet is safely in our custody. Thank you for being so helpful.

    THEN SHE WROTE BACK:

    Hello
    I do understand with you that you have been very professional with me.that is why i agreed to give you my puppy in the first instand.My husband is making arrangements for the insurance and will get the money to the pets express soon as possible so you call the money gram and get the money activated so we can pick it up ok..

    I KEPT WRITING HER AND FINALLY SHE GAVE BACK A RESPONSE WITH:

    hello
    I am very sorry for the delay in response .i have been very busy at the pets express trying to do a few clearifications.I was really mad to hear that there puppy has to be insured .i stayed there all this wile trying to plead with them not until a secretary working with the pets express has to briefed me through saying this is going to refundaed back us.You shoul not boarder because my husbnad is making arrangement for the insurance.So you should get the transction activated at once because once he is back we will be getting the money all at once so that lisa can be on board.Hoping to get from you favourably.

    WOW CAN’T BELIEVE SO MANY SCAMMERS OUT THERE! WELL THEN I DIDN’T JUST STOP THERE I LOOKED AT ANOTHER DOG AND WROTE ABOUT IT AND THIS IS WHAT I GOT:

    EMAIL: Eli Weiner (eliweiner10@googlemail.com)

    Hello,
    Thanks for the mail and your interest toward my lovely
    babies. they are male and female,10weeks old.She is champion
    bloodline, registered,vet check , updated in all shots.well tamed and
    potty trained, good associate of kids and other house hold pets
    also simple to learn.Below are pictures of the male and female puppies

    To begin I will start asking you some questions.
    -Are you a breeder?
    -Do you have kids?
    -Are use to puppies?
    -Are you sure that you are going to take care of any of my babies?
    -Gift me a Brief Description about your Environment?
    -Do you have a vet doctor?
    -Were Exactly are you located?
    -Can I have your phone number to reach you?

    As you have already seen in the ad, i am giving out her for free
    since they were owned and taken care of by my late wife whom i lost to a
    drunk driver couple of weeks ago.i am located in Seattle WA but
    presently, I am in Cameroon for a UNICEF volunteer seminar which will
    last for more than 3months as a result of the mobile nature of my job
    and right now i can’t take proper care of the puppies which was a sole
    responsibility of my late wife. they really do remind me of her sad
    memories all the time i look at her and hurts deeply. So, my greatest
    desire is to find someone who can properly take care of the puppies and
    if you can, i can arrange for shipping and delivery to your home if
    you cannot come right up here in Cameroon for the pick up.shipping am
    sure will be moderate since we spent just just too little bringing the
    puppies up here.

    Be reminded that these puppies are for free and all you will have to do
    is to pay only for the delivery and shipping fee of these puppies to the
    pet delivery agency which will ship and deliver the puppies to your
    home.My prayer is that you love and care for the puppies just as my wife
    did and i will be always great ful to you if you should.Do let me know
    if all is fine

    Best Regards
    God Bless

    EVERYONE JUST BEWARE THERE ARE SOME DISHONEST PEOPLE OUT THERE WHO PRIDE THEMSELVES IN GETTING YOUR MONEY AND RUNNING WITH IT. PLEASE JUST BE VERY CAREFUL WITH EVERYTHING YOU DO. ANY OF THE DOGS THAT SAY FREE OR HAVE N/A BE WEARY OF BECAUSE IT IS MORE THAN LIKELY A CAMEROON, AFRICA DOG—MY FIANCE AND I GOT OUR HOPES UP FOR THE LITTLE ENGLISH BULLDOG GIRL WE WERE GETTING SHE WAS SO CUTE AND JUST WHAT WE WERE LOOKING FOR… NOW I WOULD RATHER PAY $1,300 FOR A DOG THAN PAY THEM $100 OR $500 SOME FOR INSURANCE AND ACTUALLY “GET” A DOG!! LOL… WELL THOUGHT SOME OF YOU WOULD FIND THIS HUMOROUS AND I THINK MY FIANCE MIGHT MESS WITH THEM EVEN MORE. IF SO I’LL DEFINITELY POST MORE!

    1. I Just Read All These – & I Think I Just Got Scammed I Sent $200 To Some Chick In Douala, Cameroon! Also,A Supposedly Airline Emails Me Too. I Am Computer/Internet Literate I Should Of Know But Being Excited About My Puppies Overcame My Literacy. They Had Fake Logos For The Airline, & I Looked It Up Online Where The Actual Airline Was – & It Was In A Whole Diff Place Than Douala! I Am Glad That’s ALL I Got Scammed Of – U Live U Learn! Just Wish I Seen This Site Earlier. I Even Typed It In Yahoo Search For Scams, Nothing Came Up!
      I Am Hoping This Helps Some Other Person Who Won’t Get Scammed Out Of Their Money! Could U Imagine How Much Money It Would All Add Up To.

    CITY

    PHONE NUMBERS

    As soon as i have this information i will have to take it along with me for home delivery registration and change ofpapers from my names to your names and register the puppy,for delivery .Thanks

    me:i gave her my adress because i am so gullable i didnt even think people even did things like this!i never recieved the pics so i asked for them again and they seemed so real so i told her wat one i wanted.i spoke to my dad about it and he told me to leave it cos it sounded dodgy so i did the next morning i had 2 new emails!

    her:Hello
    am just back from the agency am done with all registration and change of papers ok, for the agency will contact you on how payment will be done and as well the arrival time of the puppy to your home.Thanks.

    i also had one from the pet express people it seemed so real so i went along with it but i did not want to give them £120 so i said that i would pay £60 now and £60 on delivery when the puppy gets to mine . so dumb as i am i payed £60 through a money gram at the post office but i was confused why they said the money goes to cameroon but i went along with it and payed the money i had a phone call from a person from the airlines saying they had checked the puppy over to see if it was safe for flying and that due to my late payment it would come at 11 am the next day and then i realised when it never came it was a scam but luckely i didnt have to pay the whole £120.just goes to show you cant trust any1 on the internet!!
    bewarned if you are going to buy a puppy from some one you dont know or havent spoken to in person if they say OK and nice hearing from you a lot when you only spoke to them 5 mins ok it is a scam the airlines are fake and the money goes to people in africa for drugs priks!!!!!!

  24. Just today I almost fell for the scam. They were offering two english bulldogs for $300. His name was Andy Brat. They did say ok an awful lot and were very pushy about the money. I work nights so I was half asleep all day while talking to them but they would not leave me alone. Not only did the gentleman e-mail me all day but I also got a confirmation from screen name Air Port where they have copied and pasted from an Animailers website. ANimailers does exist however it is located in MD not Cameroon. The name they requested me to send it to Mrs Solange Nzegge Jolle. Telephone 23774592512. I also recieved phone calls because yes I went as far to give my phone number. The number I was getting phone calls from is 23774886398 however when I tried to call back it said the number had been disconnected. Another number I did not recognize that was calling me alot during the period of the e-mails is 3032227141. This is the one that scares me because it is a local area code and I gave them my address. When I try and call it back the number is busy. I hope this information helps someone else. I am lucky I did not go through with it but I was very close. Thanks for the erbsite and all the information. I was sitting around feeling bad that I had made someone go through all the trouble of prepping a dog and me not following through.
