Never take, or buy a pet you cannot see or touch. The free puppy scam is a classic Cameroon one. The idea is to get you to send money (usually by Western Union. or prepaid credit card). Then all sorts of things happen. Dog stuck at airport. Needs a shot. They milk you for all they can get until the anvil drops on your head & you realize there's no dog. All a scam. Want a dog? Go to your local rescue shelter. Lots of new best friends are there.
