I had a friend who lost $450 on this scam!!! With so many dogs in shelters why would you send money to a stranger in another country for a dog? All countries have guarantine regulations that would prohibit this kind of shipping of a dog. Please spay and neuter your animals and visit your local shelter for a life time of love. |

Dogs can be imported. Thats not unheard of, and yes, there is often a "QUARENTINE" period for those dogs being imported or exported.
These scams are so common. I have a hard time figuring out why people send money to people thye have never spoken to. Or claim to be from the "states" and cant formulate a sentence in the manner it would be spoken here in the "States".
Each person is also entitled to their own personal preference on where and why type of Dog will be appropriate for them. There is nothing wrong with wanting to "Buy" a Dog from a reputable and respectable breeder.
Hey JodiJim...did your German Spitz or Pom come from a shelter? |

Wow I am so surprised how many people these jerks scam! We just tried purchasing two yorkshires actually and they were both overseas one was Isolo Road Lagos Mushin Nigeria by the name of Oluyomi Oludare although im sure they have many different names. We felt this wasnt right and they were always caring about the money we sensed it was weird and to have a puppy on a plane that far is weird it sounded to good to be true so we googles the address they sent us right away fraud alerts and everything apeared, we knew it was too good to be true and after us even emailing back saying no this is a fraud we got emails saying how they could never steal my hard earned money!
It was also very weird how the price kept changing with her/him first 200 then 180 and then they said theyd even pay half I knew it was a scam then haha. I also called the international airport in calgary and they sugessted it was a scam they had seen this many times before.
So we called it off and kept looking we found more Yorkies on tradepoint.ca there was no price listed and we inquried for more details and to our surprise it was overseas in
Limbe Cameroon green bell street number 90 so again they sent us message back right away saying that they had two Puppies and they had to go together blah blah I didnt care too much after I knew it was a scam I did reply saying im not comfortbable purchasing the puppy from that far away and googles the address again and we found this site! Thanks for everyone who responded I am so happy we never sent any money to them! The things people do in this world! Its horrible, I will stick to finding local breeders close to me that I can see in person!
here are the two emails they used:
achuval01@yahoo.com
rollinsshally@yahoo.com
Good luck to others and please tell everyone you know might not stop them all together but slow them down.
Now does anyone know yorkies in calgary? thanks so much

What a crock of crap. The police dont trace telephone calls of people scamming stupid americans out of money. Let alone small amounts of cash. That just cracks me up. There is no command posts set up at anyones house. There is no FBI phone traces. Police Phone Traces. That is such a joke. Do you want to know why? Becuase in order to trace a telephone call, it has to be the last call recieved at the number. They cant go back and trace telephone calls from 3 days ago. They wont even get involved when its one american scamming another american. People need to wake up and take responsibilty for their own stupidity. If your stupid enough to believe that your getting a Dog from Cameroon, you are definately too stupid to know your getting taken to the cleaners. |

SCAM*SCAM*SCAM*SCAM* SCAM*SCAM*SCAM*SCAM* SCAM*SCAM*SCAM*SCAM*
Just a heads up to anyone inquiring about teacup yorkie that are supposed to be coming from Cameroon, I have received emails from theses 4 address within 24 hours saying they are in Cameroon and will send the puppy for a small fee. I would have fell victim also, but Im so glad I was curious about where that location was and a Google search lead me to many forums where people are being scammed everyday by people like this and its not right. So please do your research before doing anything that involves your hard earned money.

Cameroon........DEFINATELY A SCAM!! wow, listening to the other stories, I almost went thru the same thing only I knew right after she asked for a MONEY GRAM, she was full of it!!! She had the nerve to say something about being a missionary for God n her landlord didnt like pets so she wanted to adopt out.She wanted $100(already too good to be true)and kept trying to get my info out of me! just the way she went around i circles when I asked her a question made me question her because a few scammers tried the same thing previous to me running into her. My husband is also in Iraq and I kept bugging him about it. He told me it wasnt a good idea but I wanted it real bad so I almost did it reguardless of what he was saying....only she didnt do a good job at lieing!! She even had pix of other adds Puppies on her add!! I called her out on it and havent heard from her since!! I feel sorry for the Lady that told her story on here! All I can say is she used God in her lie...She will get whats comming to her trust me!!Anytime they ask for money gram.....RUUUUNNNNNN!!***here is the scammers address...BEWARE****;"caracas fly99" caracasfly99@gmail.com ****
is there something we can do? how are these people still able to post adds without being accountable? what are the sites doing about this? feel free to email me with any questions!

the pet scammers are still here, i got one yesterday from a person saying the pup they have posted on here is already sold and living in another state and she gets updates all the time, but if i still what 1 she gives me another missonarys email because he has 2 that he cant keep, but I also knew what it was and wrote back that she /he whatever they really are must be crazy, and that I was reporting them to the pet website and the FBI, but when they sent this reply it didn't include which ad it was, but the last one i ha demailed was a pup named Lucy on nextdaypets and only $400, but i cant get anyone on the # they posted but did contact nextdaypets an i was told yesterday they saw that ad an removed it, but i went back to see if it was gone, and there it was still, and i recieved the same email message word 4 word again this AM, an a big give away to a scam is that they cannot spell english words very well, or make sence when they are writing something out, they miss words in their sentences.. BE CAREFUL.. always a real breeder or kennel will work with you not rush you, and can send you updated pics of any pup, and usually you r not going to get an registered pure bred pup for near nothing, and all breeders are able to give you 1 full price for everything, never will they say 400, and then email back and say oh, we have a problem can you send more $, I have now purchased twice through next day pets.com and bought 2 yorkies, months apart from 2 diffrent breeders, and not once have I had any issues, until yesterday i had gotten this email scam from a email address as:Rosana Torres, telling me to email this other guy to get some cheap yorkies his email is:christmyhope11@gmail.com so Please stay away from these people...
Take your time, and really look through all the pages,you will find the perfect pet for you and @ a price thats also right for you, an to the people earlier who were saying thjis lady who started this chat because she sent money and got screwed,what you said about she shouldnt be able to get 1 because she must be young an dbasically saying shes too stupid to have a pet, her husband is away for yrs at a time serving our COUNTRY to keep you safe, and sop we are able to have the freedoms we do, dont you think she deserves to have a small baby puppy @home to love an care for while her and her husband &family make this scarifice for all of us!!! and look @the $ they lost trying to have that for her, how dare you!! |

My wife and I were looking for teacup yorkies and we sent out some e-mails. We got responses all from the same city in Cameroon. I replied with....
"Ok we have a deal. I will send you the money as soon as I get my $6 million from the Saudi Arabian Prince."
I don't expect to hear back from them. |
