I found a couple on the internet claiming to have 2 english bulldogs for sale for $1200 or $600 for one. They sent pictures of the puppies named Barry and Betty. They claimed that that they were NGO's for the Household of God Church in Lagos. I asked them if they would let me send them $400 now, receive one puppy, then make payments for the second puppy and they agreed. They said to send the money through Western Union. I found this website the night before I was to send the money. It saved me $400. They just called me this morning and tried their best to convince me to send the money but I told them to pull their scam on someone else. Lesson learned: NEVER BUY ANYTHING YOU CANNOT SEE FOR YOURSELF. The info they gave me was: Shantel and Adam Jacob. They live at 7 Opemipogan Street in Lagos Nigeria. The test question for the Western Union was : Life and the answer was: Thanks. Their e-mail address was Shanteljacobs@gmail.com and they called me from phone #: 234-807-267-6008. Hopefully this helps somebody else from sending money for puppies that won't show up. Also, they used words that were similar in other scams like: rehoming, missionaries, and calling the puppies "babies". Good Luck!!!!
