By this time, we were fully aware of the Cameroon scams out there, and also aware that Jean Dawson is listed in the Master Scammers Email List on another blog here at Blogspot (wish I knew how to link to that site and such, but relatively new to blogging)......... so anyway, we sent this short but to the point email back.....or so we thought it was to the point......
Sorry, thought yet again this was a rebutable. The information you provided was enough already, as we are educated americans, you do not meet the requirements necessary for us to do business with you. Thanks, Donna
Maybe they got confused due to the misspelling of 'reputable'...........

Hello thank for getting back in regarding the monkey both me and my husband believe in faith that this monkey will find a loving and caring home with you and in your home our monkey are 12weeks old, so we are to transport the monkey to you ok and we will need the following information to register the monkey at the delivery company.we are going to miss them but still want the best for the monkey since there are not feeling comfortable living alone at home with no one around them. what can really make me convince you will take proper care for this monkey also please can you can afford the $400 because we are going to register the monkey under your name at the delivery company once you provide us your shipping information right.Full Names......Country.........City.........Phone Number.....Zip Code.......House Address.....The Name of the closes airport in your location?When i have the above mention information my husband will take your monkey to the delivery company and register the monkey flight into your location we promise to ship you this monkey as soon as you work with us and the monkey will come along with the mentionable as follow Blanket,Food Menu...Playing Toys..Health papers.attach is the pictures right. Waiting to read back from you A.S.A.P
Ok, we just figured this person decided to try to keep us on the hook, thinking they had a real live one...... thought it was kind of interesting they wanted to know if we could afford the monkey...if we couldn't afford a monkey, why in the Hell would we be answering an ad for one?
Oh, yes, absolutely we can afford the money, and as per our last email, we thought it was a reputable advertisment for a monkey (silly us!). The problem is we are not into responding to scams.....and this is one. It is illegal to ship any primate for pet purposes into the US....no matter if it is from Cameroon, Canada or any other country. Period. If you actually planned to ship the monkey(if you indeed even have a monkey) into the US, it is seized and destroyed...and we are not into the senseless killing of any animal just so someone can get money from unsuspecting persons who are gullible to these types of scams. Thank you for your time, but no thank you.
Donna
Figured this email was too the point to....but hold on to your hats Ladies and Gentlemen......

Hello,
As assurance,the first thing i will tell you is we do all things on trust,you trust me and i trust you too.I can assure you i will have the puppy been shipped to you and they will deliver the puppy right at the nearest airport in your location.Well,before I put the puppies ad for adoption,I havealready obtained a legal Cites Export Permit from the Ministry of Livestock Fishery and Animal Husbandry here to shipping out the dogs.I think this will be as a clear Proof that what Am doing is legal and transparent.So you are to have all my full address that you can take any legal action to me if i get your money and don't send you the puppies.If i want to rip or get money from a person i will not be taking $400.00 that can bring done my reputation right that is too small,i am a Catholic christened and i can't get your money and don't send you the puppy okay,where is my faith,As God said do unto to orders if the do unto you are going to be happy,so i don't want a bad luck that can bring me done and my family or my next generation.so all is on trust.should i give you my WESTERN UNION address for you to get the payment so i can reserve a flight ticket for your baby to be shipped. Best regard.
Ok...first things first.....The Ministry of Livestock, Fishery and Animal Husbandry deals with fish and livestock. They have nothing to do with 'puppies'. I do not know if the Ministry deals with the breeding and sale of exotic animals, but I would bet my left nut they don't.....Secondly, when in the Sam Hill did I request information regarding a puppy????.........So I replied once again, out of sheer meanness......
Whoops! Silly us.....we thought this was an advertisment for a 'monkey' not a 'puppy'!
I pretty much thought that would be the end of this scammers correspondance.......but wait!!....they have an answer for everything!!!!.......
hello sorry it was my brother who reply you not me because he also have a little Bulldog puppy for sale so it was a big mistake he made please we are very sorry for the mistake Ok.
Riiigghhtt.........although we have mainly been dealing with monkeys, it is also apparent that these Cameroon scammers are trying to sell you anything....bull dog puppies, chihuahua puppies, yorkies are also big along with teacup poodles....I saw an ad for a Palomino horse that only needed 'a romp through a house or apartment for excersize' (being horse owners ourselves, that would be a complete mess of your home folks, believe us!) They also try to sell you antiques such as rare and expensive antique bookends....probably a couple of bricks painted in whatever garrish colors they can come up with. So Buyer Beware!!! NEVER send ANY money whatsoever to anyone in Cameroon.....every ad coming out of this country is a SCAM!!!!!
