Post I was looking in my area too

and the person who answered my inquiry said SHE was in my area, but the puppy was in Africa and that she was just doing a favor for the "reverent" who was too busy the missionary appointment and couldn't do it himself. Then she directed me to an email address, which was answered with the original sob story, only with more detail and the request of $300 for travel expenses and an urgency plea because the puppy was 'alone and scared'. Since the puppy, according to them, had been soooo spoiled and wasn't accustom to this neglect, he was especially suffering.
Another person posted on Kijili that she had gotten the same sob story and after she sent the money they asked for more to get him the vaccines and carry cage in order to be allowed to travel. Being that she had already pony-up $300, she sent them what they asked and only after she got suspicious, they stopped communication. She never heard from them again, lost her money and no puppy! They were planning to clean her out, I think. Sad, sad, sad
