Dear Sir

I am interested in one of your puppies, preferably a male. Could you please let me have photos, and proof of pedigree. Also your location and details of delivery.

Thank you

These people really are the scum of the earth. How best to proceed to really screw this bastard around?

Am sorry am not a breeder and just got me yorkshire from a neighbour when I was in Uk.So I don't have any proof of pedigree.

Here's my reply :

Thank you for your email.

I am happy with what you state, but I would like to see the documents you mentioned :

"Akc Registered Yorkshire puppy for Sale..They are vet checked with all vet papers available" before we proceed.

I have tried calling you but neither of the numbers you sent me work. I don't know why.

Unfortunately my computer network does not allow the opening of attachments, so I would need these to be sent by fax to xxxxxx.

I wait to hear from you urgently as I would like to get this sorted out and the money transferred to you by close of business today. Please let me have your banking details for the transfer.

U K

My reply, calculated to piss him off :

Quote:

First of all I have not had the fax. I did say I can't open attachment as my network strips them off, so there is no point in your sending them.

Now please read this carefully and answer each of my questions accurately and completely.

I contacted the American Kennel Club, it is still morning in the US, but I need the dog's full name. Anyway they don't know this Muma Celestin vet and the telephone number does not connect.

I asked you for your bank account details. You have not supplied them. I cannot use Moneygram or Western Union as it means a long journey for me.

Air France do not handle unaccompanied pets. Are you sure you know what you are doing?

As for the rest of the information you asked :

Full Names : Uyara Koksuka
Country Japanese/American, resident in UK.
State ........................
Home Address : Skammas Arscombe, 29 Peacetake Lane, Little Shittingfold, Surrey
Postal Code KT22
Phone numbers xxxxxx
Name of nearest airport to your town. London Gatwick

Get back to me fast with the required answers as it is now nearly 4pm.

Am sending the fax again now and this will be for the last time,if do not get it then try to use some other computer to get download the attachment.You can not do bank transfer cause here in cameroon,the bank am in does not have network with other banks out there.If Wetsernunion is far from you,the you can pay on westernunion online money transfer through there web www.westernunion.com. .You talked about Air France not transporting pet without a carrier,I will have to find out all that from their agency here.If thats the case,then I'll use some other airline cause there are quiet a number of them here.What is important now is that you send the money through western union or money gram as this is the online way I can get the money fast enough cause banks here have closed already and the only way I can get the money is via the western union so that I can send the puppy by tomorrow morning.Westernunion here works 24 hours,so you have nothing ot worry about me getting the money later.You just make the payment and get back to me with details immediately.I have your full contact details and I'll arrange all papers on your name as soon as possible.Note if this is not done today,then we can only do it by monday.So save time and let me also save time in me own end.
Waiting........ Maybe you should give me your numbe so that I call you since you can't get to me through +237 7798 5668

and so am I !

I do not like your tone. I am a potential customer and deserve respect. Don't make threats to me like this. How dare you? Who do you think you are?

"Am sending the fax again now and this will be for the last time".

I have checked with my bank and they can do a transfer to any bank in Cameroon. They also told me that sending money to West Africa via Moneygram or Western Union is not advisable due to the potential for fraud. I will only send the money to a bank account and that is not negotiable.

I've given you my number and you haven't called.

It's up to you to make this work. I am losing interest in doing business with you, there are plenty of other places from whom I can get a Yorkshire puppy without putting up with your bad manners. Perhaps you need to do a course in customer relations?

Maybe I can get him to come to Yaounde to meet me .....!

Quote:

Either you are lying about having faxed me, or there is a serious communication problem. I have received 4 faxes this afternoon from various places and also several calls on the number I gave you.

There is an easy solution to this. I get free air transport as I work for IATA so I can come to Yaounde, how far is that from Limbe? I can bring the money in cash and if everything is OK, then we do the deal.

Let me know.

I tried to check your address but there's no address as such and again the post code you gave is not a UK post code,that means you are fake.

(That's true, there isn't a place called

Skammas Arscombe = Scammers are Scum
29 Peacetake Lane = Pisstake Lane
Little Shittingfold, Surrey)

Quote:

No, I didn't give you my complete post code or correct address and won't until I am confident in you. At this rate, that won't happen.

Well done though for being devious enough to check.

U K

Its ok that you come over and pick up the puppy yourself.It will take you just 6 hours drive from Yaounde to Limbe and you will get him and get the next flight back to Uk the next day.You are trying to say am lying that I sent any fax,then aren't you lying that you tried to call me when I have recieved serveral calls from abroad today without any problem so how come your call is not going through. But if you really think you can come and pick him up,then its just for you to tell me when and I'lll prepare him for you.Just know that you will be most welcome here.Waiting...........

Quote:

I don't know what you really want me to do but I think there's something thats not very ok about your identity.I not so sure who am writing to all this while cause you gave me a number thats not going through and an address thats not correct.I gave you everything correct about me yet you still keep giving complaints.If you are not ready to pay for the puppy and his shipment, I think I have had enough of this too many questions that you can't seem to be satified with all what I give as answer.Are you paying for the puppy or not? If not don't even reply this mail.Thanks

Ah yes, the old rubbish about colonization. It's shit of course because ............. if we hadn't tried to civilise you.

You are obviously not taking this seriously, the net is closing around you and evidence is being gathered. It's a slow process in order to achieve the best result, and believe me, we will. It's up to you to take this seriously or not.

You are incredibly stupid to have admitted that you are a scammer, this will go against you.

Your status ... what's that then?
