Scams selling or giving away non-existent animals, often Puppy Scams.

There is a woman on adoption/ free dog sites named BRENDA COLLINS that supposedly has 2 male and 1 female yellow Labrador retriever puppies 13 weeks old. She will text and speak with you for a few days then bring the pup to the airport to be shipped off by "PET EXPRESS INTERNATIONAL & BRING THE DOG TO YOUR DOORSTEP FOR 160$" . They'll make it seem legit by saying their company has many branches around the world with CAMEROON Africa being their headquarters where payment goes. here is an example email from the PET EXPRESS INT. agency::
