PLEASE PLEASE Don't fall for this scam. Do it the old fashioned way and buy a puppy at the Pet Store or in person. I was thankful that I did my homework and saw this website before I did anything foolish. I thought it was too good to be true and guess what? It was. I thought I was going to adopt two beautiful English Bulldogs puppies. The person responded to me right away. This is what was sent:
Hello
Thank you for the interest you have in my puppies, Casy and Missy. They are both male and female puppies looking for a better home and I hope you can offer that. They are 12 and 13 weeks old and also AKC registered, potty trained, crate trained, and well tamed tooThey are beautiful babies with gorgeous and round bodies. I am by named Stacy Nebbs and I am a tourist. I travel round the world taking shots of wildlife and nature. I am now in Cameroon and I, alongside my team are headed for the mountain that is Mount Cameroon in one week time and we will be there for two weeks, there we are going to take shots of nature and the eruption that is occurring there. The reason why I am giving these puppies out for free adoption is because the weather condition there is not conducive for these my little angels and also, I wont have enough time for them since I will be busy doing my work. They were three of them till one was given out to Mr. McKay in Tennessee some three days who promised to take good care of her and I also want you to promise me you will take good care of them as Mr. McKay promised me. She also promised to send me updated pictures of him and her. You will see them better in the pictures attached to this mail. They are doing very well. I will like to know where you are located and how soon you will need these puppies. Also, I will need your phone number so that I can keep in touch. I will also like to know a little more about yourself and also tell me what you do for a living so that I can be sure you will take good care of them.By the way, how many will you need? Male or Female or Both?
I will be waiting for your quick responds.
Mrs. Stacy Nebbs..
After 30 minutes of instant messaging, I felt pretty good. I told "her" all of my history and profile so that I can ensure that we were a good family that would take care of her puppies. I was EXTREMELY skeptical sending any money Western Union and I relay that to her. She said that I would pay the airlines direrectly. I felt better and since she wanted pictures and updates of the puppies I even looked up the name Stacy Nebbs on Facebook, nothing came up. I questioned that, but I understand not everyone has a Facebook account. Moving on...
I asked her to call me personally but she claimed that she was at work. Then she said she was going to to pet store and department to change the puppies document? I was a total smart alec and asked her several questions, some she missed becuase she should have done her homework and make sure the puppy names matched from the emails. I felt suspicous because her story wasn't matching.
Thank goodness I did the investigating and googled FLIGHT GLOBAL PETS SHIPPING AGENCY. As you guessed it, it was fraud on this wonderful website. I would have lost $350 for shipping. I took a picture of this website and replied:
"I don't know how you live with yourself... My children and I are deeply hurt and sadden by your cruelty. I'm sorry if yo have a hard life but ripping people off is just plain evil. I pray to God you do change your way. Please don't contact me anymore."
Sadly the idiot still replies to me. I should just tell him/her to F* off! No I am better than this, Please be careful and google and look into EVERYTHING before committing or sending ANY money.
