As many of you know, I answer the email for an animal shelter, and occasionally I will post a scam that is just too original/low/bizarre to pass by. This very special romance scammer is one of those.

Hello.([email protected])
My Name is vivan I was impressed when i saw your profile at www.adoptapet.com and i will like you to email me back to my inbox so that i can send you my picture for you to know who i am.i believe we can establish a long lasting relationship with you.In addition,i will like you to reply me through myprivate e-mail box ([email protected]).This is because i dont know the possibilities of remaining in forum for a long time.Thanks,waiting to hear from you soonest.Vivan

(Remeber the distance or colour does not matter but love matters alot in life)

For those who don't know why this one is so special, adoptapet.com is a place for posting shelter and rescue animals available for adoption. There are no "people" profiles on this site, only adoptable animals - so I can only conclude from this email that vivan here is looking for a furry or feathered friend to love, if you have an appropriate character for her!

Remember that pets up for adoption will need to pay for spay and neuter, shots, and the health record. If transport outside the country is required, there are additional requirements for travel. Very Happy

I don't think this is the romance the scammer is looking for. Rolling Eyes
