Petcargoagency (Director's Name Agah Augustine) Petcargoagency tried to get $250 from me prior to shipping a dog to my residence Limbe Somewhere in Cameroon

I was in the process for obtaining a Husky puppy. I found an ad for an Alaskan Malamute for zero dollars (only shipping of the puppy would be the required payment). When I replied to the ad, I got a quick response from michealproska@gmail.com. who said that he was in Cambridge Bay Victoria Island. He stated a sad story of how his parents died in a car accident and that he had several puppies in his possession to give away to a good home.

When I agreed to obtain one puppy from him, he immediately notified me that a delivery company would be calling me with the details. Soon after I received a call from a person with an African accent who asked me to verify the fact that I wanted to get a puppy from Micheal Proska. I confirmed this intent and he asked me to check my e-mails for more details. Sure enough, I received an e-mail from "petcargoagency" outlining the method of payment I must provide inorder for me to get the puppy. However, the payment was to be made to a Agah Augustine in Limbe Cameroon. This I found hard to believe since no delivery agency operating in Canada would ask someone to make a payment (Western Union) to Africa. When I enquired "Micheal Proska" to provide me with a telephone number so that I could speak with him regarding this issue, none was forthcoming.

Luckily, I did not provide any payment to these scoundrels but sent them a nasty e-mail stating how I had felt at the time. I Googled petcargoagency and low and behold an article popped up with the same kind of scenario that I had just undergone.

Please beaware of such filthy individuals who are lurking in the world wide web just to take advantage of people and con them out of their money. We all know about Nigerian Lottery scam and now we can add the Cameroon Pet scam.
