    watch out for scammers.. an email i got (cl)

    Hello,

    I must say you are a nice person and i believe and trust in you that you will take care of this animals and always keep in contact with me each blessed month.Sitted on a wheel chair means alot stress to me and i trust and beleive solemnly that GOD will come to my rescue someday though some people might have fun of me.

    Adopting 2 of my Ball Pythons will cost you 445.00 US Dollars since its a direct flight to your home and 1 will cost 245.00 US Dollars.I will probably need the following informations from you which will enable me proceed with the transportation to your home.

    How many of my animals are you interested in adopting??

    I will need your Full Names??

    Home Address??

    Nearest Airport to your home??

    If everything seems understood now then get back to me for my money transfer details asap so that we can proceed with the shipment.

    Thanks once more and God bless your endervous

    Below are the various animals on my list of adoption.

    4 Piebalds

    3 Albinos

    4 Spider

    2 Clown

    1 Pastel.
    Boy did I see right through that one! the original CL add was something very simple "i need to find homes for my Bp's" needless to say i was quite amused.

    They would be so much more realistic (and believable) if they would just learn to type proper English.

    I think the bad english is supposed to make you think he's dumb enough to adopt out the high dollar morphs for "only" that small shipping fee.

    I wrote one a real nice message the other day about adopting his ball python eggs,The kicker they come with there own incubators .I told him his mother would become a goat when he read my message .Of course they fear goats so he must have passed out because he never replied back

    Better yet get one for free

    Hi there,Thanks for the mail. I have a male albino and a female piebald
    ball pythons available to go out , They are hand raised and with all
    papers,has been fully checked, captive breed and also tested and have
    a good relationship with other pets and vet checked with up to date vet
    records.they are ready to go for adoption with free snakes box.I am
    looking for a good home and will meet up any requirements if need to be
    shipped.their weights are 442g and 507g and each are a little over 2
    ft. long, will come with a cites permit and 10months and 12months and
    1year old respectively. They will be going out for free adoption and a
    free box and all you need to pay is the shipping fee . I am giving
    them for adoption because i am here for an
    assignment and my job requires a lot of time so i immediately realized
    that they are going to be lonely and as you know they are very delicate
    creatures and need a lot of care and devotion and that is why i have
    decided to give them out to a loving and caring home where they will be
    loved and will be given all the time they need, so if you are
    interested.get back lets see how they get home..
    Where are you located and How soon do you want the snakes?,
    how many? and if needs to be shipped, then get back to me with your full address and the address of
    the closest airport to your location so that i should contact the
    shipping agency right away for flight reservation.
    Thanks and Waiting
    for the infos
    ^^^ Reply i just got back from a person

    Come here little guy. You're awfully cute and fluffy but unfortunately for you, you're made of meat
