re: Pomeranian named Timmy
Victorine Monique just sent me the same verbage via email only she says she is in Salt Lake City Utah and asked for $210.00 to have Timmy flown to the closest airport near me. She claimed she lived several cities over from me. Scam - I reported her to ClassifiedAds.com which is the listing sight she is using in Los Angeles.
re: advice
It's a scam. Go to a reputable breeder in your own country, preferably one where you can go visit the facilities and see that the animals are happy and healthy. You might think it's expensive, but it's way cheaper than what people are getting scammed for, and you'll actually end up with a puppy, not just a lot of promises.
advice
I have never done anything like this before. I saw a puppy at a Hungarian website and made contact with the breeder.
Please read these letters and give me some advice!
1. thanks for your mail and interest, i will be sending you the female husky, as you require, but am a missionary and am out of the country that is why you will have to pay just for shipping cost of the puppy, if you are willing to pay 150euro for the shipping cost of the female, then i will require you to sent to me your complete delivery details
your names, your country, your house address, your telephone number, your city, nearest airport
once i have these information am going to register the puppy to the pets delivery agency that will deliver the puppy to your home address. you will make the payment to the pets delivery agency once i will register her at the agency.
2.thanks for the question am happy you sound caring and more concern about the puppies health, they are currently vets with pedigree and has pets passports already, their parents i have sent over to the pets veterinary because of her age, you said you needed a female puppy and a darker one right? i will be sending one of the darker puppies you see on those pictures i sent to you.
Also as regards the puppy safety you don't have to worry about, she will be okay, i have a reliable pets delivery agency that will take care of that, and shipping will be just for few hours to arrive Budapest.
3.see attach the puppy passport and vets, am sorry for the delay response, just that i travel out of the city, and also i will like to
ship the puppy out today Friday because i will be travelling to another city, so i have recieved your delivery details, i will take the puppy to the pets delivery agency that will deliver her to your home address, they will contact you on how to pay for the puppy flight charges once am done with the booking of her flight.
4.Yes i have registered her some few hours ago, am just driving back home from the airport, the delivery agency will contact you on how to pay for the puppy flight charges
please inform me when she arrives
stay bless
After these letters I got one from Petscargo Carbo (yahoo.com) how should I pay, but I'm hezitating.Please somebody help me with it because I realy love the puppy I saw but I don't want to loose any money.
Thank you for your help!

Timmy the white fluffy Pomeranian.
this is the email I received after I inquired about Timmy the white fluffy Pomeranian.
"Thanks for contacting me on my puppy, i am not selling her but i am giving her on adoption to a good home. She needs a good home where she will spend the rest of her life happily. Before giving you my girl, i will first need to know a few things from you. I need to know if you are a breeder because i am not interested in giving my little girl for breeding, i also need you to assure me that you can take good care of her. Also let me know when you want to take her home. Do you have kids ?
How is the nature of your job ?
Why do you want a puppy at this time ?
Do you have any experience with puppies ?
Will you send me updates about her from time to time and pictures ?
I am just being concerned about the type of home she will be going to, so that is why i am curious to know. I love her so much and i want to make sure she goes to a family that will show her the affection she deserves. Attached to this mail are some of her pictures let me know if you like her.
Thanks and waiting to read from you. Victorine Monique"
Then I told her my story and she sent this message...
"To tell you a bit about my self, i am Victorine the wife of Penn. I am 29 and i am expecting my first baby. I got married 3 years back and we are so happily married. I have been with dogs all my life as my Grand Father was a pet lover. I usually go there on holidays and would spend much time with the animals and house pets there. Timmy`s mother Milo was given to me as a wedding gift by my grand father.
We traveled to Victoria East Bay botanic garden research center Cameroon on research purpose. We are out to carry out a research on plants and backs of trees in the Victoria East Bay botanic garden research center Cameroon. The country is good in many species of plants and some of the plants and backs of trees serves as medicines. We would be here for 7 months before going back to the states. The climate here is not good for our puppy as it is too cold out here so the vet doctor advised us to send her to a place where the climate will be favorable for her stay that is why we have decided to give her for adoption. We live at Victoria city Kingston street 216 Samson avenue and do our research work at Victoria east bay botanic garden research center some 5 km from our home .
we not selling Timmy or giving her away for an adoption fee. All we need from you is to show her all the love and care she deserves and to treat her as a member of your family, sending us updates and pictures of her from time to time.There will be no problem flying Timmy to you as she has all her health papers and she will come with them. All you will need to do is to get back to us with your detail address that is your full names, your state, city, phone number, zip postal code and the name of the nearest airport to your location and we will do the shipping arrangements and fly her to you so that you will pick her up from the airport.
As soon as you get back to me with your detail address we will do the shipping arrangements and prepare the adoption and transfer of ownership document of Timmy at the pets department of the Douala international airport. When we have completed the shipping arrangements under your address, the pet shipping company at the Douala international airport will contact you for notification you will then pay the shipping fee directly to them which will cost $120. This fee includes all the airport charges so you will not have any other fee to pay. The pet shipping company will also let you know how the shipping and delivery works. It really hurts to see her go but we are just doing this for her own good.
When you are ready for us to proceed with the shipping arrangements you get back to us with your address so that we will do the shipping arrangements. You can call us on +23797966896."
Thankfully I've heard of these scams before and I have not sent her any money.
Pomeranian named Timmy
Victorine Monique = vickymon23@yahoo.com (phone# +23797966896) is trying to get me to send $120 to fly over cute little Timmy. SCAM! I'm not buying it. She said she travled to Victoria East Bay botanic garden research center in Cameroon. She says the climate is not good for Timmy. Please do not send any money to these people.
Tea cup poms named Chloe & Leo.
My pups are suppose to come Thursday providing I send the 200.00 usd cuz they have paid the other 700.00 & my refunds are now 45,000 usd becuz of a lady trying to steal my pups at the airport. This is a nightmare!
Tea cup poms named Chloe & Leo.
On August 21, 2011 I purchased 2 poms from a Kristal Green in Greenville, Mississippi. (supposed to be) She said she & her husband would luv for me to take both so they wud not be seperated. Cost for transportation $360.00 to airport $400.00 home delivery. For 40.00 more it was worth it, then I get email telling me they needed to b insured 1100.00 (refundable) i like a fool sent it, then they tell me they need shots 1550.00 again I paid. Thinking this was it & they were on there way & wud b delivered again an email telling me I needed to pay for City permit & ownership papers. i did this also. Kristal Green (real name Elmeda Muta) promised on the bible that I would receive the pups. The man delivering them was robbed when he went to get the transportation money so he cudnt come down, then someone else tried to claim the pups. I can write a book about this. I have been scammed out of 9000.00 usd & they are still trying to get more from me. The flight tickets expired, feedings, robbery (of course nothing insured). They spoke of the LORD like true Christians. How can they use GOD so horribly. I may have lost the battle but not the war becuz I have GOD on my side & he will handle them on his time. Right now 2months & some days later they call me & say they have put up all the money but 200.00 usd to get them to me by Skypet. Skypet said they are doing me a favor becuz of Brian at Air France. I am very said that this has happened. They took my kindness for weakness & ran with it. i have never purchased animals over the internet & I believed in these people. So sad! I can keep writing but i need about 100 pages to tell all. Who can help me with this? i cant let 9000.00 just go out the window.
golden retriever
I have a question for you in regards to this scam. When you paid for the actually certificate of ownership (so the person says) did you get an email from urpet. Ex sayin to pay for the money through western union? And then when you did so did you get an email saying when the flight would be taking off from cameroon and arriving at your destination

re: scammed for chihuahua puppy!!
Reply to @sarah1987:
hi sarah, i dont know if it is to late, but i fell for a scam for sugar gliders from cameroon, and i called the Western Credit Union (which im assuming they asked you to wire money from) and they have a fraud hotline and it allows you to cancel your money transfers. I am lucky i found this site because i cancelled my transfer shortly after. The best of luck :)

re: New English Bulldog Puppy Scam
Pretty sure I just got scammed. I sent about $130 to a woman with the email address meganmelisa@yahoo.com for an English Bulldog puppy named Kotter. I have been talking to her for about 2 weeks, and she has told me her son was sick before, then yesterday she told me her son passed away but the puppy will be here today, which hasn't happened, but while I was out of town today, she sent me an email saying that it was urgent and she needed to talk to me asap, so I'm pretty sure she is going to give me the story about the cargo person getting killed by a passing car. This has made me very upset. I took that money from my birthday.

re: re: Cameroon Pet Scam
hello and good day again, no you will not have to pay anymore money
for any vet, because we will register Max for home delivery and he
will be brought to you right to your home that is to say the vet
health certification from the airport after the veterinarians from the
airport have checked the health statues of Max will hold and help to
the delivery of Max to your home with no other checks.
we are sorry we did not mail you on time, we had to find out from
the airport if you will have to pay any charges for that, so we got
information that yo will not have to pay any other money for that, so
you do not have to worry anymore.
attached to this mail are some pictures of Max and we all attached
a few of his mother too , due to some advice from the veterinarian, we
decided to keep them apart, since we will be giving some of the
puppies away we will love their mother to get use to the fact that
some of her corps will not be around her, so i have attached some
pictures to this mail but their are separate an hope you will like
them.
we will use the delivery agency which is with association with the
Cameroon airlines, using the following address
AKONA PET DELIVERY
Ring-way avenue
ADI code :74M04B12
Avidicational ways: 56
Phone number: 00237 76 559803
Email address: akonaairwayspetdelivery@rocketmail.com
so you could contact them for more information.
thanks and waiting on your reply

re: New English Bulldog Puppy Scam
hi after reading all the posts on this site i am pretty sure me and my husband have been scammed. We were told our breeder is in a comma from a car wreck and the cargo person that was to bring the bulldog puppy to our house was hit by a passing car and killed. We have sent over a thousand dollars. The breeders email was bihmelvis@ymail.com and we sent the first five or six hundred to this info
Name: Wanki Edwin meteminwi
Address: airport road douala
City: Douala
Country: Cameroon
Zip code: 00237
test question: A
test answer: B
then the name changed they said the first guy was on leave so the we had to send it to this info
Name: Moforngong Moses Achiri
but all the rest of the info was the same. I didn't find this site till now and would like to know for sure if i am being scammed.

Stupid bastards! I paid in the Czech Republic nejΕΓv 3500 CZK 3000 CZK and then, from the original 8300 CZK, which I had allegedly paid as a refundable deposit for the pug, then that would help me at the airport and pay the remaining 5300 and I 3000th They accused me today that I sent the wrong MTCN code, and have remained silent! What do I do now?
Ummm.... This Sucks !
So.. I've been chatting with Julia who is located on Victoria Island in Cameroon @ St Francis Monk House. We've been going back and forth about the possibility of adopting a 7 month old Pygmy Marmoset.... It really does sound legit and so far all she has is my name address and telephone number which she needed to be on the 'papers' for a safe transfer. I must be falling into this category somehow huh ? Bummer... I was actually pretty excited !
re: male and female english bulldog (Stacy and Boon)

re: scam also valerie segura misael2888@yahoo.com
i think i just got scammed by people from cameroon. they said if i dont pay the insurance fee and the permit fee then they will see me in court. they wanted me to pay 250 for shipping it but the guy that i was getting the puppy said all i have to do is pay 75 and he pay the rest then the puppy will be delivered to me. then the petcargo lux services emailed me and told me that i need to pay 550 for insurance fee and a 350 permit fee.

re: big time scam Prisca_Moore@yahoo.com
Hi, I'm from Colombia, I've also been ripped off by wanting to adopt a pet, please spread this social networking, news, in newspapers, the police report, ask ad pages do not publish this, write to the airlines involved in the post, I have seen cases for 2 years, does not allow more people to be cheated and that animals are used for their purposes. Please help spread the theft global, so that the authorities do something about it.
re: big time scam Prisca_Moore@yahoo.com
Let me guess - next, you'll find out that you need to send $1,000 in legal fees to get the $14,000 in compensation, or they need your bank information to make the transfer.
Unfortunately, the email address is meaningless -- they probably create a new email account for each scam, so the same person might be Joe_Smith@yahoo.com or Jane_Doe@yahoo.com to the next victim.
big time scam Prisca_Moore@yahoo.com
Me and my wife just got scammed by this shit for almost $4500 do not let this happen to you.
The company they used was in beech creek, NC supposedly when it got to the US...supposedly. We then received an email that the dog had died from overdose. we are now receiveing a contract saying they are going to pay us 14000 for compensation of the dogs death.
