from the desk of Dr Walter Woolf, the veterinary founder & owner of Air Animal Pet Movers, the Tampa, Florida based pet moving service for relocating families; and, NOT the transporter of puppies by the imposters, liars, cheats, scoundrels, and rogues in Cameroon, the African country home to internet fraud and business identity thieves.
sure .. the all white Maltese puppy was free .. the only "catch" was that there were "shipping costs of $200.00" .. that was the first hook of the bait and switch routine used by the Air Animal imposters in Cameroon.
summary: Los Angeles pet owner to be ..... spared of losing $200.00 .

SCAM Report #58 : Connecticut Pet Owners targeted : Enfield & Hartford
from the desk of Dr Walter Woolf, the veterinary founder & owner of Air Animal, the Tampa, Florida / USA based pet moving service for relocating families; definitely NOT engaged in the transport of puppies for the Cameroon scammers.
the report came in from Enfield, Connecticut .. where the purchaser of the alleged Bulldog puppy (aren't they cute in those internet photos?)called to identify they were NOT going to be scammed. The caller (she) having answered an advertisment in a local newspaper in Connecticut. The "hook" was the low balled price of $240.00 for the Bulldog puppy.
and the caller from Connecticut .. having found an alleged "teacup Yorkie" on a web site for the low balled price of $200.00 ... and, after visiting our Blog on scams, was surprised ... and thankful she had not sent any cash dollars to Cameeroon.

Monday ... 26 January 2009 : SCAM Report #53 - Victims spared $700.00 on one weekend
from the desk of Dr Walter Woolf, the principal owner & managing director of Air Animal Pet Movers, the pet moving service for relocating pet owners, since 1977, .. with ONE (1) office only in Tampa, Florida / USA .
Monday, 26 January 2009 brought us three reports of attempted scams over the weekend of 23 - 26 January 2009.
SCAM #1 of 3 : the first one was for the purchase of a Maltese puppy for the price of $200.00 from the prospective scam victim in San Diego, California who knew Maltese puppies were generally available for purchase in the amount of $500.00 to $1500.00 .. and could not understand why the price was so low. The "deal" was from New Jersey .. to California .. fortunately .. the San Diego, California buyer did not fall for the low price.
SCAM #2 of 3 : the second one was for the purchase of a "teacup Yorkie puppy" for the price of $200.00 from New Jersey to Washington. The Washington caller could not understand why the US Dollars in the form of a Western Union transfer or the MoneyGram transfer had to go to the African country of Cameroon ... the Washington caller went to Air Animal's website ... www.airanimal.com .... found our Blog on Internet Puppy Scames, Business Identity theft, and realized she was a potential victim.
SCAM #3 of 3 : the third one was from the caller in "Indiana" wanting to know why an intial Western Union payment in the amount of $250.00 was followed by an additional request of $50.00 by Western Union for the internet purchase of a Capuchin Monkey ..to be shipped from the non-existent office of Air Animal in Kansas City to an unspecified airport city in "Indiana" ... the $250.00 was for the alleged transport & shipping of the pet by Air Animal .. with the additional fee of $50.00 for alleged home delivery ...... had to be sent to the African country of Cameroon. The scheduled passenger airlines of the United States and their air cargo services do NOT accept monkeys for shipment; and , there are NO branch offices of Air Animal Pet Movers anyplace in the world.
SUMMARY: with diligence, intelligence, internet saavy, and basic "smarts" ... three potential scam victims in the USA .. in the states of California, Washington, and Indiana were saved a total of USD$700.00 .
