Scams selling or giving away non-existent animals, often Puppy Scams.
#247144 by Ndillon Mon Apr 20, 2015 8:52 pm
A person with email address [email protected] is scamming money out of people by way of advertising puppies for sale in Australia.

I recently made contact with this person via ozfreeads.com asking if I could come and view the puppies and received a response advising that the pups were her recently deceased mothers pups and that they were located in Darwin Australia. I advised her that my cousin lives in Darwin and would come and meet her to look at the pup.

She refuses to provide an address and phone number and constantly advises me that I have to pay the pet carrier company in order for the pup to be delivered to me.

I have a cousin in Darwin so why would I need this person (the scammer) to arrange delivery to me?

Here is how she responds to me. You will notice she advises pups will have a passport and AKC registration delivered with them.

The pups are meant to be located in Darwin so why would they have a passport if being delivered within Australia and why would a pup be registered with the American Kennel Club if it is born and bred in Australia?

Here is one of the many emails I have received from this scammer!!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Because she's in Douala, not Darwin.
