Peeka Boo I See You! Donating Member | Yet another scammer posting in my....... Local area i was interested in looking at the pups and this is what they responded back to me: Hello, The pups I advertised has been adopted by one Mrs Bessie Dredge from Alaska and the pups is doing quite well with her and her family accoring to her recent update about the pups welfare at her home.I want to refer you to one Pastor David Afis who graduated from Concordia University in Ann Arbor, Mich., (B.A. 1982) and Concordia Theological Seminary in Fort Wayne, Ind., (M. Div. 1986 and Ph.D. 2002) and associates with Lutheran Church of Africa. He bought two puppies from me as well. He has been transfered to West Africa in continuation to his missionary/humanitarian work. He went there with the two puppies he bought from me. Unfortunately, Africa is not the place for these types of dogs. He contacted me 2 days ago to find a caring parent that will adopt the dogs back to the USA. He has no time for them, the african weather is so harsh according to him and this is really troubling him and his mission in West Africa. Contact Pastor David Afis asap and tell him I refered you to him. He would be excited if he knows you are from me. Below is his email address: afis202@yahoo.com Get me informed as soon as you adopt the pups from him. Best Regards

| Too funny...going to scam the scammer Scam the scammer. Hahahahahha. I have been wanting to do that too. It is amazing how many rich people have died lately and need little ole me to help them invest all of their money or to help them find charitable Christian organizations to donate their money too. I have thought about opening up a bank account with only a dollar or two in it and letting them deposit all of their millions in there. I havent gotten far enough to find out what the scam is tho. Maybe they deposit it and expect you to write the checks to them or something. I want to know how it works out with the scammer getting scammed for a change. Keep us posted. Barb |

| That and you would think I am a billionaire with all of the lotteries I have won in foreign countries. I wonder who enters my name in these foreign lotteries? I won 3 in one week. LOL. Some people need to get real jobs. Tell me nobody actually falls for this crap do they? Barb |

Peeka Boo I See You! Donating Member | here is th message i sent last night: hi I was directed to talk to you from sarah toney she said that you had 2 yorkie puppies that you purchased from her and that you could no longer care for I was wondering if you were willing to sell them to me? Please let me know thanks Amber here is the message i got back today: Hello Amber Yes!!! I sent the breeder to find a caring parent for my babies. I live in the USA before I got a divine call to serve God and humainty 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 home trained. I am asking $700 for my two babies and one for $400 (shipping included). You have to be updating me in every 2months as an uptodate 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. Their names are Tommy which is a male while Jetty is a female I am attaching their pictures for you to view them. I can't wait to hear from you God bless you

| LOL, the stupid scammers. I would love to scam the scammers! I feel really bad for the people that fall for them. I used to work at a bank and we had a customer call in who had just got scammed for $5,000. They had already declared bankruptcy and were just starting to get on their feet again, then they got scammed and had no money to even pay their mortgage. It was incredibly sad, but unfortunately we couldn't do anything to reverse it.

| I scammed them a couple times too. . .It's actually quite fun. When I was looking for a Yorkie, I looked into my local area and found a couple of these, so I decided to go along with it and show my interest. My boyfriend actually sent a money order for about .30 I think after they asked for $300. Then they were mad at ME for not sending the correct amount and said they would turn me in. . I said I could turn them in for worse and they never emailed again. |
