I have just confronted him about being a scammer and I am waiting for his response. If I had to guess, he is probably another scammer from West Africa.

Hello roobery,

Thanks for posting the email from this scammer and as you suspected the emails originate from IP [41.92.213.40] = Cameroon, Africa.

Thanks! How did you track down his IP?

I think I found a alternative email for [email protected], I was also looking for cats and stumbled across them, taking safe procautions I wanted to make sure they weren't a scammer, searching their email I found a post for bulldogs, however with a different email, yet same discription word for word.
This is the ad I found originally with [email protected] : http://www.asnclassifieds.com/lovely-male-and-female-bengal-kitten-for-sale-now-ready-to-go-home-m2030757.html

This is the ad I think I found a alternate email for: http://dibba-al-fujayrah.classi4uae.com/ad/pets-for-sale-good-looking-male-and-female-english-bulldog-for-sale-now-ready-to-go-home-pid128890

their alternate email looks to be [email protected]

I've never emailed the person my self, but I didn't want to get into any trouble incase they are scammers. (Which they apparently are.)

Hello S'hadi,
Thanks for posting the information. Those two ads are typical of ads posted by African pet scammers.

If you have any additional questions on pet scams please ask.

My boyfriend and I have been looking for savannah cats but did not want to pay to outrageous prices. We found [email protected] ad on kittensforadoption.us (which is basically a website all these pet scammers use, I found other complaints on this website - all the postings are bogus) so I emailed "william hanna" and got all of the same responses as above word for word. I asked questions about what type of savannah it is, what kind of food it is being fed and so on but did not get a response. When I sent a follow up email I got a rude response all in caps.

IF YOU NEED THE KITTEN TODAY THEN FINE.DO GET BACK TO ME WITH YOUR FULL HOME DELIVERY DETAILS SUCH AS


-Names in Full.......................in other to change the ownership
transfer papers to your name.
-Home address........................ so the agency can locate your home
-City......................... ....................for the delivery Van to your direction
-Zip code.......................... . ...........to back up your address
-Mobile number........................ ..for direct communication with
-Home number.............................for direct communication with

It seemed fishy to me that he would not answer any of the questions. When I asked about shipping this is the response I got.

THE NAME OF THE DELIVERY AGENCY IS U.P.S.PET.CARGO.THEIR NUMBER IS 5038952689.THEY WE FLIGHT THE KITTEN OVER TO YOUR HOME TODAY OKAY.IT WE TAKE THEM 7 HOURS FOR THEM TO DELIVER THE KITTEN OVER TO YOUR HOME TODAY OKAY.IT WE COST YOU JUST 300# FOR ONE KITTEN INCLUDING THE DELIVERY OKAY

I called that number and I could tell the man who answered the phone had an African accent and basically answered all my questions before I could ask them like he was expecting my call. It did not seem like a legit company as I heard a bunch of kids in the back round. I googled the phone number and found this forum, I am glad I did before I continued to waste my time anymore going back and forth with this dude over email and I am glad I did not give out my address or send any of my hard earned money. I knew from the beginning that this was probably too good to be true, it's a shame.

Scammers William Hanna is at it again!!! Just tried to scam me with a Sphynx add!!
Thank god for this site!! That you all for posting all this especially the ip address in Africa!! How can you find someones ip address??
