| Okay, I just wrote my "friend" Cindy! Hi Cindy, I am interested in the female and male Yorkie. Do you think they are good enough quality to breed? I really hope so. So how much do you want for them? Can I get a deal if I take the two? Oh, and guess what? There's no need for me to send the money because I am actually flying out to Nigeria in two weeks. I am a doctor, and I am doing volunteer work in The Nigerian Christian Hospital. So, I can come see them, pay you, and then pick them up! I'm so excited. Now, please don't let anyone else take my babies. :-) So, I can reach you at the number below and let you know the exact date? Or, instead, you let me know when is best for you. Please give me your address. I can't wait to meet you. You sound like a really nice person to want the best for your furbabies. I'm going to go out and start buying things already. You don't know how long I have waited for Yorkies. Oh, I forgot to ask are they teacups or teapots? Take care! Nicole

| I asked my husband to look at the emails (he is Nigerian) he said it is a definate scam, and stay away. He said that yorkies are very rare there, and usually only the very rich will have them, as they are quite sought after. I wouldnt go for it as they can get quite nasty. the nigerian scammers are called 419, mention that and she/he will freak out with you! |

Please tell us if we were right or wrong by clicking Junk or Not Junk Hello, Thanks for your enquires about my lil adorabla pup (Princess). Princess is AKC certified,have been dewormed,had her antirabies shot's,also she is up to date on her shot's and also have been vaccinated. Why i am putting princess up for sale is because i work for the WORLD HEALTH ORGANISATION (WHO) and i have been transfered to west africa (Nigeria) to co-ordinate a joint program with the Nigerian Government on the HIV/AIDs Campaigne and also embarking on the CHILD ABUSE erradication in Africa. We are now in Africa, Nigeria and the allocation given to us by the Nigerian government as a Ban on animals which as made this not convinient for princess to stay with us and we have been told to give out princess or they put her to sleep. I really wouldnt want them to put princess to sleep and thats why i am looking for someone that could take a very good care of princess and give her all the love and care she desires. I had no intension of putting her up for sale just that i will be here in west Africa for a long while for the projects and i would be doing a tour in the whole west africa. Princess is a nice little cutie she gives me so much joy any time i stear at her face.Princess is used to kids,she is also used to other ptes, dogs and cats. she will be shipped to your propossed area of delivery, be it your home or airport. She will be shipped to you it will take 12 hours for the pup to arrive ur propossed area of delivery.And that she will not undergo any form of quaritine at the airport, that all that will be well taking care of. Her adoption fee is 500, this includes shipping. I am not really after the adoption fee all i am after is for my little cutie to end up in a loving home or family where she will get all the love she desire. Please i would want you to always send me mail's and picture's of princess from time to time so that i will be able to know how she is doing. I hope i am not asking for too much but if you agree to this,then i will be giving her up for adoption to you ok. Thanks, Mrs Juliet This is what I got from "Mary Green": From : mary green <marrywithpet@yahoo.com> Sent : Tuesday, April 18, 2006 8:39 AM To : ckceasar@msn.com Subject : Re: Diddy. | | Junk E-Mail | Inbox -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Attachment : diddy.jpg (< 0.01 MB), diddy2.jpg (< 0.01 MB) We've identified this mail as junk.

But the question is that will my puppy be able to find a lovely home with you? if so i will be very glad. Am Janeth from USA. But presently in West Africa, Nigeria for our church prayer crusade.I came along with (Diddy) with prime intension of taking care of him in continuation, but unfortunately the wether here in West Africa is not condusive for Diddy. This is how i have madeup my mind to look out for good caring buyer that can provide a lovely home for him. He is 11 weeks old now, weigh at 4.5lbs.For now there is no additional. Diddy is $400 including shipping cost. No additional charges. I will be really happy to have you as a good caring for Diddy only if you can take care of him as your baby. Actually money is not what matters, but to find a good caring and loving person. If you could be able to these kindly send your contact details such as your full name,Address,Country,State,Zipcode,Phone Number and Nearest Airport to your home. With this i can make arrangement with the shipping agent for shipping preparation.According to the shipping agent,Shipping will only last for 9 hours to arrive the puppy. Thanks and God Bless you.

There is a female Yorkshire terrier puppy available for adoption,her name is Kathy.She is 7months old and she presently wieghs 3Ibs. i have sent a photo of her in this mail as an attachment.Kathy is very playful and friendly especially with kids and friendly with other animals,i need a home for this puppy because i have very little time to take care of her as i spend much of my time at my job site.I am a missionaryvolunteer from Lynchburg,Virginia presently working in Douala,Cameroon at Mission Hill Secondary School Akwa,Douala under the Voluntary Overseas Program(VSO).There is an adoption contribution of $250 for her and you also bear her transportation cost which is $120 from here back to the States .For her transportation to Connecticut.I prefer we use air transport since it is faster,Your full names and contact address are needed and that of the nearest airport for pick-up since Airport Pick up would be required to get her and this would be within 11hours from the time i send them. I will end here while hoping to read from you,Best Regards,Jonathan. --- ckceasar@msn.com wrote: From: "Christine Ceasar" <ckceasar@msn.com> To: <miketee@bornagain.com> Subject: Yorkshire_Terrier_Puppies_for_Adoption.

| Stay clear of anything that comes through the internet from Nigeria!!!! We almost got taken to the cleaners by a Nigerian scam artist. The only way we finaly got him to leave us alone is when we brought in the police. After we told him that all of his emails had been handed over to the police he quit calling and emailing us. If you ever make the mistake of giving them your phone number like we did, be prepared for many, many bothersome phone calls. I did some research on this after the fact and found out that Nigeria is the number one place in the world for scam artist. If you want to find out more about this, just go to google and search Nigerian Scam and you will see what I am talking about. It is a crying shame how many people have lost alot of money due to this. Sad thing about it is that the police really can't do anything about it since it is out of the country. |
