I recently ran across the same thing, finally she stated she lived in Cameroon. I can't believe people do that crap! It's crazy....its bad that they actually scam people who are trying to purchase a dog to love and care for! |
Shakes my head, You know on Kijji in Toronto people have been getting the same thing and sadly some have fallen for it. That was last years scam here. Now they say they are situated in Alaska. The things people will pull to get money just makes me sick. |

but i'll tell you what, for 6 months almost all i recieve were ad's from those dang scammers wanting me to send $400, $250, $1000 etc etc. i didn't even know they were called the "cameroon" scammers until this year... but they all sure sounded the same! one girl was even dumb enough to use her facebook email to scam me, i creeped everyone that tried selling me a pup to see if I could see pictures of their lifestyle/dogs/etc. haha call me crazy... but DO ANY RESEARCH YOU CAN!!! |

afff. my father got scammed last year.. he decided to buy some exotic birds from Cameroon.. before I realised what was going on (as he didn't want to tell me..) he already had given them £500... The scammers told him afterwards that the birds got stuck in France and they needed another £1000 to get them to him... thats when he told me.. poor thing.. he was so upset... he really believed them.. |

Simply Awesome, great job. you know I was scammed like this when I first started looking for a furbaby sent $250 through western union no furbaby no more contact after money was gone. the pictures sent were of a beautiful little yorkie but I never saw her come to my home. That ad was through Petfinders.com though. |
You did a great job! |
That was a hoot to read! I tend not to trust people who can\'t put a sentence together properly. The world has not shortage of icky people. I have to tell you reading some of the things I have read on YT has put the fear of God in me about buying another pup. |
I\'m so glad this got bumped back up. It was so much fun messing with the scammer. If anyone else has a scammer tale to share I think you should put it right on this thread. :D |
