Alright, so today I was obsessed with trying to find an English Bulldog for adoption and came across several ads supposedly ‘giving away’ pups. I emailed a few of those ads and soon realized that it was a complete scam. This is how it went:

Hello
Thanks for Contacting in regards to my male and female English Bulldog puppies which are still available,i just got two babies,male and
female called Boby and Lisa.There are well raised and potty trained,vet
checked,Health Guaranteed,playful with kids and other home pets,very
good companions and needs a lot of attention and love affection.They are
12 weeks old and really in need of very good homes.Before giving out my puppies to
any home i will need to know the following from you.
Are you from a Christian Home?
Have you any pet-care experience?
Where are you located?
Are you a breeder?
How old are you,are you married with kids and what do you do for a
living?
When are you ready for this puppies and Which of the sex do you want?

Sorry for all this Questions (i mean no offense) but just that i
really need a very loving home for this puppies.I am giving away this
puppies due to the fact that i am having a Research Program which i am
out.I will be transportation the puppies from St.Alberta Cameroon Island
which you will only pay the transportation fee of $175 which it will
take just 5-6 hours for the puppy to get to you.I am not out to make
money from them since they where just like my own children,my main
concern is to give them the best they ever want.
hope to read from you if this is okay with you lets proceed.
Stay Blessed

Hi there.

Thanks for getting back to me so promptly. I’m actually not of Christian faith anymore, but practice Paganism currently. We have vast pet experience with a farm full of animals ranging from chickens (for our Pagan rituals) to sea otters that inhabit the moat surrounding us. Coincidently enough, I’ll be in St. Alberta Cameroon doing business, so perhaps we can arrange a pick-up since that would be more logical. When will you be there? I am not a breeder, however, my love for dogs should make me one. I don’t believe in marriage and I definitely do not like children, but English Bulldogs and I get along fantastically. I don’t have a preference as to a boy or girl, so whichever you choose will be fine.

Preach the good word!

Regards,
M. Armada

Hello Honey!!!
I feel very happy reading from you with all the answers to my question proving a true love and care which awaits baby Boby and Lisa.I will be glad to see you are the true home for these puppies because i have been in search for a very loving home like yours for some time now.Having baby Boby and Lisa will be still fine,it will all depend on you when you are ready to have them and when you can transfer their transportation fee which it will totally cost you $175 for one OR $360 for both puppies to be transported and delivered at your house.They will come alongside with their Vet records and shots til date,playing toys,Food Menu,registered papers,a free crate,Health Certificate and all necessary items they are using.I will really love baby Boby and Lisa to go with you guys just as long as you guys can do things fast.Just take a look at Boby and Lisa and tell me how you feel about their photos okay..I will need your full in formations like FULL NAMES…??
HOUSE ADDRESS…?? CONTACT NUMBERS..??? NEAREST AIRPORT TO YOUR HOUSE ….??.I will use this informations and book a flight for the puppies but will only complete the flight arrangements only when payments are done so that i can pay for their flight to be activated which it will take just 5-6hrs for the puppies to be delivered at your doorsteps.
Thanks and God Bless

Did they even bother reading my email to them? PAGANS? SEA OTTERS? BUSINESS IN CAMEROON?! Who fucking goes to Cameroon for business? Where the fuck is Cameroon? HAHA totally ridiculous. Anyway, if you see these type of ads, DO NOT go for them. Its called fraud and you’re gonna be short on however much because you decided to listen to some hustlers getting the best of you all the way from western Africa. That was a great laugh tho, I must say.

Comment by lizzy

Wow. Its completely amazing to me how anyone could even come up with a scam dealing with puppies. Good thing you didn’t fall into it. I can’t believe they called you, though..that’s on a different level of absurdity.

Comment by mischaarmada

I was searching for a Persian kitten for a friend of mine. I came across this ad and eventually decided to email the advertiser. The response was similar to what has already been said here on this forum.

Already having many questions about the agreement and the weird reply, I searched the internet and found this site. Rest assured that I will not be sending any money out of pocket and I can only trust that my identity stays secure.

This same advertiser has many similar scams. If you click on the private link to the side of the ad you can find gorgeous macaws for $350. If you want any type of pet the advertiser has a way to get it to you. \

It’s a shame that people have to resort to this type of tactic as a way to entice good people into paying for something that they really want but can’t possibly afford.

Comment by Loretta

Okay, I became intrigued with this whole thing and decided to do some more referencing. If you are interested in pet monkeys, Yorkie puppies, parrots, long hair Chihuahua (is there one?), shi-tzu puppies, pythons, husky or pekingese puppies they are all out there. To give more emphasis to the listings, the monkeys, parrots, pekingese and Persians are all “new” scams.

With 50 listings per page and 28 pages and counting, this advertiser owns the entire continent of Africa and has at least 1400 animals available. So, be warned, don’t bite on this scam.

Comment by Loretta

For anyone following this post, I went back to the website advertising the kitten. It mysteriously had disappeared and after some searching the ad came up in the Los Angeles area. Exact same picture, same seller. Be wary of W. Preston. Fake!! Only in it for the money. Why do they do such things??

Comment by Loretta

My fiance and I have been looking for an English Bulldog puppy for a long time. We foud these people in the classifieds. Thought the puppies were adorable, and wanted one. We went googling for where the Camaroon Islands were located and came across your ad. Thank you for stinking this on the internet or we would have been out $200. Although we are upset and sad…we are glad we found your website.

Comment by RebeccaTeeter

OMG! i just got two letters that said similar things because i replied to two different ad’s .. and they had similar substance which really made me question the odds of two people both being located in Cameroon .. one of which asked me to fly there which is completely ABSURD!!

Hello Dear
We are very glad about your interest on our baby. Mimi as we call
her is just 14weeks old and as we know would spoil your home with
joy.She has got all her shots from child hood and she is also Akc reg.
She has no illness to be afraid as we have always kept in touch with
our vet from time to time to make sure she is ok.We are located in
Cameroon precisely in Littoral Province, Douala. We would wish to get
the informations below from you before coming to conclusion on giving
our puppy to your home

Do you have kid(s) if yes how many?
Do you have a large yard that she can play in?
Are you a breeder?
How soon do you want her and we hope you spoil her with love.
Whats Your Full names and where are you located?
And also some few details about Mimi .
She eats
3 times Daily and have adapted to
that.
She take to order like
when you ask her to lie down.
SHE is Hand Fed and Dna tested and would easily get adapted with
other pets and your environment
She is AKC and is potty trained.
She weighs 2.75 ibs and will be full grown approximately 5 or 6ibs my
estimations.
she loves lots of hugs and kisses and also outdoor activities.
She will come in a Ventilated crate and Blankets for Cold,So i am Located
in Littoral Province ,Cameroon and the flight to you will take 8hours 30
minutes duration and that will be a very comfortable one for her.
We know you must be asking yourself why we should be in Cameroon
and posting our ad in your location. It is just that Mimi was owned by
my late daughter and when we were leaving for Cameroon she asked us to
bring Mimi along but we knew it was a bad idea but she insisted and
since she was our only child we had to listen to her.
so few weeks
after we arrived here
she died of Malaria and we met with
an adoption
specialist who advised we send Mimi back from where we came from and
so he helped us post the ad you saw so that we can get a new home for
her. so please do not mind above questions it is just that i and my
husband thought it wise to have a good background of where we should be
sending Mimi to before sending her.We hope to read back from you soon
and also to show you pix of Karen and Mimi. Thanks alot

Hello,
Nice reading from you and thanks for the interest regarding our puppies Drena (male) and Rena(female).I have just two left for free adoption.they are still available for any good home.I have always wanted them to get the best of love from their next home.The decision to let them go is hard but I finally,i came to conclusion that they need a new home and want them to have just what they have always had…they have so much love to offer, if you will accept them with open arms.
They have spectacular,Stunning, Gorgeous.Fabulous Baby doll Face,short cobby body,weighs 2.32Ibs and estimated to have an additional weigh of 1.25Ibs at full grown up age, short legs and confirmation.Home raised with a very good personality.They are just the happiest little puppies you will ever see.they will make a very good family member with their very great quality,sweet and loving temperaments.they are spectacular Designer Purse Puppies to take everywhere with you and they are lover too.Loves to give lots of kisses hugs.Have always been around children and other pet and very used to being together.

They are AKC reg,current on all their recent shots and dewormed,vet checked with all their vet and registration papers available and up to date,potty,paper and crate trained.they are 08 weeks old and weighs 2..4lbs and will get an additional 1.2lbs(estimated) when fully grown.Babies will be coming alongside with all their play toys,air conditional travel crate,healths and reg papers.
As for our location ,we were located in Las Vegas and just relocated to Apples Villas , Cameroon due a research purpose with the UNICEF branch located here and the climate condition was not favorable for my babies and i have to stay long here so What I am concern about here is your assurance on their health,good care and safety.they needs so much
love caution and stability in location.If your home is open to this darling,they will be on their way to your home and i am really hoping it happens.Recent pictures of babies are attached to this mail so that you can have a general view of their beauty and they look alike because they were from the same litter.Get back soon lets see how they gets to your home…OK

Comment by kim

oh yeah
i’m having that drena and rena conversation with her right noww
and i gave them my contact information >.< how stupid!!

Comment by lucy

i found them on isell.com btw or w/e that website is

Comment by lucy

I’ve been offered a yorkie from cammaroon. the family said they just moved there and the yorkie was having a hard time adjusting. They are paying for everything.. free dog and free plane ride over her to the states… is this a scam too b/c unlike the other comments they havent said anything about me paying for anything.

Comment by jadea russell

Well, I wouldn’t know if it was a scam or not. Although, I don’t see the reason why they’re paying for everything. I feel situations that are ‘too good to be true’ usually are.

Comment by mischaarmada

OMG!!!! I am soooooo glad I Googled this SOPRINA CARLO and found this site. Than you M.Armada for starting this post. You have saved many people a lot of grief!

Comment by Stephanee

I thought this was a fishy email…. these people wanted to give me the pups before they got the answers to the questions, just as long as i paid
Email I Was Sent
Hello
these little loves are called Boby and Lisa.just some info about them,they are very playful,they loves to be held like a baby and gets along well with other dogs and pets.they loves attention,loves to curl up in my arms and just fall asleep. When
you look at them,they stares in your eyes,its really sweet.very

They will also be coming with a one year congenital health guarantee.i am not a seller nor i am a breeder.i had a phone call yesterday from new Cameroon virgin island that my daughter had an
accident after school.so i came down here immediately.i took the puppies along cause there was no one back in the house to look after
them.but now,the situation is different.they cannot spend more days here.you can’t imagine that i hardly have a minute to care for them.my
daughter’s situation is so critical so the puppies are always looking very frustrated because i now ignore them and i feel too bad for
this.so i prefer to fly them back to the state than to allow them suffer here this much.so i just need any person who can take any of
or even both of these little loves back to the state and have them forever.at least i will get another puppy when i come back to the state.though i will really miss this honey.don’t worry about the transportation.they will be transported in a electronic-oxygenated
crate so their safety is 100% guarantee.permit me to ask this.do you often go on Vacations or business trips because they hate to be left alone.I will like to know more about you if you could please answer the below questions.

What do you do for a living………………………?
How old are you……………………………………?
Are you married with kids……………………….?
When eaxctly do you need the puppies……..?
which of the sex do you want………………….?

All my family and i have ever offer these puppies from day one is love and that is what is making them grow very healthy and happy
and this is exactly all i want them to experience in their new home.so if you are sure of giving these lovely Babies a befitting happy
home,then i would be very much happy to let them go over to you… please email back to confirm to us if you are willing to give any of the puppies a good home.all I need from you is just to re_activate the flight back to US and the flight re-activation fee per puppy is $175 okay.

Thank you so much, I received an email from the same people. Cutest dog I have ever seen, came with everything, utd on shots, fixed etc. I googled it to make sure, and saw this. You saved me. Thanks so much[:

Comment by Caiti

NOW, they have moved on to HORSES! I have been email a lady about a Friesian Horse, and when she said she could ship for $850 I was surprised and she said she was from “St Alberta Western Hills Cameroun Island near Limbe”, and I looked it up online and there is no such place. There is an Island of Cameroon near Limbe AFRICA! and it would definitely cost more than $850 dollars to ship a large Friesian horse from Africa to Michigan!! I was bummed… I really wanted that horse! She used the name Jessica L.

Comment by Anna

Hello Jessica,

Thanks for all the information about Lulu. Its it very nice to see someone who truly cares about where their horse ends up. I am located in Sebewaing Michigan. I work part time as a cashier at a grocery store and also take some online classes as a student, I’m 20 years old and have been showing & working with horse since I was about 12. I own two horses right now one is being trained and the other is retired and a pasture buddy for our younger one. I would like another horse to ride and possibly show. I help work with and exercise some horses at a horse farm close by and am learning how to train and work with my green horse along with others and hope to train more in the future when I have more experience with training. I have some experience caring for and working with young horses. The type of riding I ride and train is a form of classical dressage. Most of my free time goes to my horses that are very well cared for. I have no kids and live in a home out in the country by a small town . May I ask how much you are asking for Lulu and do you have any pictures?

Melissa

Hello,

Lulu is willing and quiet whether in the arena or out in the open. He is super on the trails alone or with others. He has been shown at both schooling and recognized dressage shows where he is quiet and dependable. He has also been used in lesson program.

I am sadly selling him because I have health issues.Lulu is broken and has healthy legs before we give him to your family,we will like to know the below information about you if you don’t mind

Where are you located ???
What do you do for a living ???
Are you a breeder???
Do you have any experience with horses???
Do you have kids???

We are very sorry if we ask too much but you have to understand that lulu is like part of our family and giving him to another family really hurts but but doing this will be for his well been so we will like to make sure that he is happy where ever he goes.hope to read
from you soon

Comment by Melissa

It’s amazing what u can find when u research online… Thank you sooo much for this information, I was about to be duped out of 100 dollars for an English Bulldog… I was suspicious to why it was only 100 dollars compared to everyone else that was selling it for 900 dollars… my response email was the exact same way… amazing
Thanks very much for the mail as regards my lovely puppies Lindsay and harry. Lindsay is the female why harry is a male.They are very precious and loving puppies and they where adopted in our home.So they have very good behaviors and closed relationship with kids and other domestic pets..We love them very much because our family is a well devoted Christian family and we treat our pets just as we can treat human beings.If you you are ready to adopt these lovely puppies then you will have to promise me that you will take very good care of them by providing them with all necessary facilities and also spoil them with all their needs because they are very lovely babies and it is agift from my heart.They are 13 weeks and weighs2.5 ibs and they are expected to be 5.5ibs at their full grown age.They are vet checked akc registered and also have all their shots.Please but before we proceed i will wish that you provide me with answers to the following questions.Are you a breeder?do you have children?do you have other pets?So i am giving my puppies to you for free adoption and you will only have to pay for their papers works(adoption papers) that is transferring the ownership from my names to your names and that will cost $195 for the both of them and that will be all you will have to pay because i will be the one to arrange for the shipping because all i need is a good home for the puppies.. But you can still decide to adopt one of of them thought i wish that both of them should go to the same home because they have been very use to each other . If you will adopt just one of the puppies then you will have to pay but $100 for the adoption papers.They love playing toys,and also loves sleeping on my labs.. Both of them look alike and they have playing toys. I am located in Cameroon highlands.But please do remember to provide me with answers to those questions.Waiting to read from you asap.Thanks and God bless you.

Comment by Bibo Miles

OMG. Thank God I came across this article!!! Same thing with me, I have emailed the same lady Im sure, in Cameroon. At first I thought it was a typo. So after reading this, I wrote back a nasty letter and said to f off, and get a real job you scamming bitch. I hope no one falls for this, I almost did. Those puppies are so cute.

Comment by Ashley

Thank goodness. I just found a similar ad on horsetopia.com for a horse. I reported it. Here is my version:

Comment by Vicky Hackett

Now they are trying to give a friesian horse away. What made me suspicious is that I couln’d find cameroon island near Limber. Not even Limber, there’s nothing. They they got very weird and now that I have found this site I’m grateful to you all who posted your experiences because noe I won’t fall for it.

Thanks for your mail regarding my puppies….I have two still available to any one prepared to provide them with enough care and love,where they will be well spoil with all their need…..they are now 10 weeks old and they have very good temperament with kids and other pets,very playful love to play around with toys and kids,they are health guaranteed and DNA tested……they are up to date on all their shots and they will be coming along side their health papers and vet records……They are called Lina and Nina and i am actually giving them out because they were always cared and looked after by my wife(Kelly) but with a heavy heart i lost Kelly and Kelly was all i got ,i work with a global,broad-based health care company devoted to discovering new medicines, new technologies and new ways to manage health.Kelly died in an accident last 2 weeks on her way back from work and i have very bad memories when i see these puppies around me,because they were always together with my wife since i am always busy in the laboratory.i really need to give them to someone who can really care and love them just the way Kelly used to.These puppies have been very lonely since Kelly passed away so the best thing i decided on as my colleague advised me was to send them to a loving home and i am located in st Cameroon island .i really count on you if you can be there for them.Please may i also ask you a few questions?
where are you located?
are you a breeder?
do you have kids?
Can you also promise that you will take good care of them?
How soon are you ready to have them home?
At least with this information, i will get to know better where they will
be going to……..Lina is the female puppy while Nina is the male puppy.i just hope you will love them…..I will also like you to promise me that you will always send their pictures to me monthly so that i can see how they are doing in your home.i will be waiting for your mail asap.
thanks and God bless.

This is unbelievable. I literally just came across these people as I was inquiring about 2 english bulldog puppies. Their e-mails are almost identical to this, and their supposed “American” English is terrible. I had no idea where the heck Cameroon was, so I googled it, and this blog came up!! Thank you. It’s unbelievable how my e-mail asking about the dogs was replied with “We have chosen you to be the new owner of our dog Jennifer!”.
