Last week I responded to an ad on ozfreeads.com. The ad was posted by Pauline Jones [email protected]

Here is the initial response I received from the scammer.

Well i just want to let you know that i am giving the puppies out for

I then advised this person that i live in Australia and that I wanted a female puppy as soon as possible and she responded with the following;

Hello dear

My name is Pauline Jones
I live in Townsville City QLD, Australia

Although we are located far apart, it is still possible for the
pups to get to you by air transport .

i can send the pups to your home address , through a pets delivery
agency , and you pay for the delivery cost to the agency .

From my inquiries at Pets Transporters Agency here in Townsville City
QLD, Australia, the
delivery cost from Townsville City QLD, Australia to any home address
is $400 and both
will cost you $700 for the pups . And the pups will be
delivered at your door step after about 9-10 hours .

For the pups to be delivered directly at your home , the data the
agency would need from you are :

Your full names ,
Your full home address ,
Your area postal code ,
Your contact telephone number .

The pups will be delivered with all Current vaccinations ,
Veterinarian examination , Health certificate , Health guarantee ,
Pedigree papers and all other necessary documents .

The pups will be coming along with that the following

# Passport
# Health guarantee.
# Vaccine record.
# AKC registration papers.
# Microchip Registration.
# Nutrition supplement.
# Traveling Crate.
# food menu
# Toys

If all is confirmed , send the required data for us to proceed with delivery .
you can also add me via the facebook link below so that we can chat
more better about the white puppy you are interested in

I have since responded that I will come to Townsville to collect the puppy.

Note: Passports are not required to transport pets within Australia.

Hello Ndillon and welcome to Scamwarners,
Thank you for taking the time to post the information on these pet scammers. I am happy to see that you discovered the scam before you lost any money to these criminals.

It is ALWAYS a scam
If the pet seller or shipper asks for money to be sent via Western Union, Money Gram, any brand of gift card. Walmart To Walmart , Zelle , PayPal friends and family option, or mentions Cameroon
