I was sent this email from a friend that just purchased a dog. I was very suspicious however, I kept correspondence over the last several days, even calling my bank to get a temp card not linked to my account. Normally, if it is too good to be true, it normally is.

This is note I received from Mary Woodrow and she is claiming to call herself a Christian!!!

Hello,

Thank you so much for getting back to me on such a short notice,Here is a picture of Katty and Rolly,are they not adorable?.The lovely puppies will come along with all necessary health paper work and Vet Record,Birth Certificate,Shot Book,Travel Crate,Toys And Foods.

I was formally in New Jersey but currently I am in Republic of Benin and they are here with me,I came on a missionary work with my Husband,so we visited the vet when they reacted to the weather here and we were advised to give them up for adoption.So we are giving them out on adoption for free,please get back to me with your full contact details so I can find out how and what cost to send them both to you.

Hope to read from you soon,

Mary Woodrow.

I got an email from someone who needed to get rid of her 2 yorkies and bull dog I was willing to take all 3 and find homes and keep the male for myself hehe. until when I meantioned Ill take all there the others were taken except mine and it will cost 180$ but when I meantioned if she were a breeder I had contacted before she said no so I wondered how the heck did she get my email. So i then googled it and found this forum which im happy about .(YAY YORKIES!) but very sad to find out it was a scam :-( I really wanted that little guy. How are people so damn cruel??? Except shes in Benin now. not africa...
